The Punisher and The Equalizer

 

In addition to getting a new aged up T'Challa Jr. in the next Black Panther movie, Denzel Washington is said to have a role in it.  Washington is one of my all time favorite actors and he has hinted that this may be his final performance, so I can't wait to see what he and director Ryan Coogler have in store.  Thanks to Brian C, a Patron of this Blog, for suggesting this pairing!

Spider-Man and Flash Gordon

 

What if Spider-Man had made his debut a few decades earlier?  Maybe we would have seen the wall-crawler appearing in some classic movie serials, like the one above. Ah, what could have been!

Batman Vs. Aliens (The Movie!)

 I remember a pretty well done Batman Vs. Aliens mini-series in comic book form back in the day, but how cool would a live action version of that match up been?  Get Ridley Scott or James Cameron back to direct and that would have been quite the blockbuster!

The Green Hornet and Superman

 

I remember The Green Hornet showing up on Batman, and Superman appearing on I Love Lucy, a couple of great early crossovers.  I think that an episode like this would have been pretty cool to have seen as well! 

Wonder Woman and Isis

 

These two heroines inspired lots of girls and were the first crushes of a lot of boys, so I think that a crossover like this would have been a big hit back in the day.  It's too bad the Wonder Woman TV show never featured any of her comic book villains, and this would have been an opportunity to change that.

Captain Marvel and King Kong

 

CGI is the special effects language of movies these days, but classics like the original King Kong and The Adventures of Captain Marvel boasted some very impressive practical effects for their time.  I'm sure young audiences thrilled to the wonders before them.  The only thing cooler would have been to combine the two properties.

The Greatest American Hero and The Tick

 

This would have been a TV crossover that I would have loved to have seen. I can just imagine the superhero tips that The Tick would provide to his less confident new ally.

Robocop and The Iron Giant

 

Now, this is a buddy cop movie that I could really get into.  The no-nonsense Murphy partnered with a plucky new recruit like the Iron Giant would make for some fun big screen action.

Batman and Beetlejuice

 

Michael Keaton returned to his two most famous roles and didn't miss a beat in either.  While The Flash had lots of problems, the Batman scenes were my favorite parts.  His return as Beetljuice was even better, he really looked like he was having fun in the role again, and I hope he comes back for a third installment.

Batman and E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial

 

Batman and E.T. were two classic films of the 80's that both used the full moon for one of their most iconic shots. I've had it in the back of my mind to combine those two moments for a while now, and I am glad to finally got around to it.

Tron and The Vision

 

The original Tron is one of my favorite films of my youth.  Tron: Legacy had some interesting visuals, but was kind of a disappointment to me.  Now we are seeing trailers for Tron: Ares, and I'm not sure how the film will turn out.  I do like the idea of characters from the game world entering our reality, thought.  I hope this one does the property justice.

Doctor Who on the Planet of the Apes

 

Doctor Who with Tom Baker was appointment television after school when I was growing up. I was also a fan of the short lived Planet of the Apes TV series.  If there had been a crossover between the two, I think that I would have been beside myself.

Batman Vs. The Creature from the Black Lagoon

 

The Creature from the Black Lagoon truly had an excellent costume design. It looked great in and out of the water and certainly gave me the chills as a kid.  Batman's movie serial costume wasn't as much of a success.  It looks ok here, but most of the time one or both of his ears was pointing in the wrong direction!  

Iron Man and Robocop

 

Robocop was the closest thing we had to an Iron Man movie until the real thing came along a couple of decades later, so this seems like a natural combination to me.  Watching these two in action side by side would make for a fun summertime flick.

Superman and Dragnet

 

Before I cut the cable cord, I would have a few shows that I would often watch in the morning while working on new covers.  One was Dragnet, which played on MeTV early on weekdays.  I thought it might be fun to put TV's first live action superhero alongside the no-nonsense law enforcement stars of that classic series.

Coming tomorrow: STF #4800!

Xena Vs. Aliens

 

Yesterday's cover featured The Phantom vs. Predator, and I felt like this would make for a suitable follow up.  I watched Xena take down a lot of big monsters on her show, but she may have met her match here. Let's hope she can find away to emerge triumphant.

The Phantom Vs. Predator

 

In my world, the 90's Phantom movie would have spawned a bunch of sequels.  This would have made for an exciting one, I think. But with a Predator taking on the Ghost Who Walks, who might an Alien battle?  You can find out right here tomorrow!

Superman is an Alien

 

It's good to see both of these movie franchises back on more solid footing.  James Gunn's Superman looks promising and Alien: Romulus is my favorite entry in that series since the first two movies.  It might have been cool to see a crossover back in the 80's.

The Rocketeer and Iron Man (The Movie!)

 

What if Iron Man survived using the Infinity Gauntlet, and it was he who chose to return the stones throughout history?  Perhaps we could have seen an adventure like this!  The Rocketeer and Iron Man faced off against Godzilla in STF #538...

Superman and Flash Gordon

 

I am a big fan of the classic Republic Movie Serials.  How much cooler would they have been if they had existed in a shared universe, as is all the rage today?  Here's an idea of what could have been presented in such a scenario.
