Green Goblin Vs. The Suicide Squad

 

Norman Osborne eventually tried using villains to form his own Dark Avengers team, so it's not much of a stretch to think that he might have tried that stunt with the members of the Suicide Squad first. It would be a cool tale to see play out.

Firestorm and Beta Ray Bill

 

I've been waiting for Beta Ray Bill to show up in the MCU for a decade, but other than an Easter egg statue, he has yet to be seen.  With the underperformance of Thor: Love and Thunder and Chris Hemsworth's desire to slow down his acting career, who knows when or if we will get another installment?  Hopefully even if Thor himself is out of the picture for a while, BRB can still find a place to appear in the MCU.

Tigra and Bronze Tiger


 Bronze Tiger was a favorite of mine in John Ostrander's Suicide Squad stories back in the day, so I was disappointed to not see the character included in either of the live action movies.  I guess there's a chance he could show up in the Amanda Waller series that is being planned, there may be a new version of Task Force X introduced in that.

Daredevil in The House of Mystery

 


Daredevil works best as a street level hero, but it's fun to see him way over his head with more larger than life challenges from time to time.  Whether it's battling The Sub-Mariner, tangling with Ultron or getting caught in the path of Mephisto, it's been interesting to see how Matt Murdock deals with the situations that he finds himself in.

The Bondsmen in: "Beast Mode!"

 



This cover marks the third appearance of The Bondsmen.  They were first introduced in STF #564, and had to temporarily replace one of their own in STF #880... I just realized that Doc Savage is the only member of this team that has not regularly appeared on the big screen.  Why Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson hasn't taken a crack at bringing him to the movies, I do not know, it seems it would be a natural fit!

The Addams Family in The House of Mystery



I have not seen the most recent Addams Family theatrical release, but I am interested to check it out.  It looks like it was made to appeal to a younger audience, which is fine.  The draw for me is that I really appreciate the designs of the animated characters.  They look very close to the cartoons of Chas Addams, where the creepy and kooky family got their start.  I appreciate it when adaptations stick so close to the source material.

Challengers of the Unknown and Star Trek



Will there be another Star Trek movie?  Word is that Chris Pine and Chris Hemsworth (slated for a return as Kirk's father) have walked away due to contract issues.  Hopefully that's just a negotiation tactic and everything will get worked out.

This cover was a suggestion from comics historian and Patron of this blog Marc Tyler Nobleman, and frankly I was surprised I never thought of it myself.  It seems like such a natural to have these adventurers meet for one epic story.  Thanks, Marc!

Ghost Rider and Firestorm



One thing I liked about the last few JLA/JSA crossovers in the original run of Justice League of America was a budding romance between Firestorm and Power Girl.  For some reason the flirtation they had with one another seemed to be a victim of the Crisis on Infinite Earths, and was never mentioned again.

This cover comes from a suggestion by Marc Tyler Nobleman, comics historian and Patron of this blog.  Thanks, Marc!

Firestorm and Hawkeye



It's been fun watching the emergence of Firestorm on The Flash.  He is still in bad shape, recovering from the accident responsible for his powers.  We have seen Ronnie Raymond in action, throwing power blasts and flying away with his flaming head, but I'm guessing it will take the addition of Victor Garber as Martin Stein before we see the character fully formed. Robbie Amell has tweeted a pic teasing the Firestorm costume and Jason Rusch has also been cast, so it sounds like we will see plenty more of the JLA's hothead in upcoming episodes.

Firestorm and Nova



I have been following thevelopment on James Gunn's upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy film and the latest rumor is that Marvel's space cops - the Nova Corps - will be making an appearance.  That would be pretty cool to see, although I'm thinking that they will go with Sam Alexander, the new Nova.  Marvel has been giving him a push lately with his own series and appearances in the Ultimate Spider-Man cartoon.  Still, I'm and old school guy and Richard Rider is the Nova that I grew up with.  I know he's been killed off in the Marvel Universe, but I hold out hope that we will see the original bucket-head return one of these days.
