All-Star Squadron and Woverine

 

Logan would have already been in operation when the All-Stars were formed, so it's not out of the questions that they would cross paths.  Hos healing factor would be a big help against that pesky Spear.

7 Soldiers of Victory and The Defenders

 

Uh oh! Mr. Universe is back for his 4th appearance and he looks more powerful than ever!  Let's hope the combined might of these two super-teams is enough to put him down for good!

Crusaders of Camelot

 

This is a team concept that I have had rattling around in my brain for a while, and I am glad that I finally got around to putting it together.  It would be cool to see the adventures of a superhero team from the Middle Ages.

Galactus Vs. The Seven Soldiers of Victory

 

Yeah, I don't know how this group is expected to be able to take on the World Devourer either.  It would be fun to watch them try, though!  Let's hope that one of them has an ace up their sleeve.

Seven Soldiers of Victory and The Vision

 

The original Vision from Timely Comics always seemed really cool to me, and I have been meaning to include him for a while.  When I was a kid, I didn't realize that the Avenger's resident Sythezoid had a Golden Age counterpart.  They are quite different characters, but that unique cape design is unmistakable.

Black Knight and Shining Knight in: "All Roads Lead To Mordor!"

 

With all the talk of superhero multiverses lately, the rest of the world is just catching up to the cool crossover possibilities that visitors to this blog have been aware of for a decade plus! Here's another concept that might be cool to explore in the screen - the medieval heroes of Marvel and DC in the world of The Lord of the Rings!  Well, I'd be interested in checking it out anyway!

These two Knights first crossed paths way back in STF #138...

Shining Knight and Cyclops

 

Continued From yesterday's cover, we now see which X-Man had to return back to the Seven Soldiers of Victory's era.  If there's one member of Xavier's team that deserves better treatment than was received in the Fox movies, it's Scott Summers.  Here's hoping Marvel does him justice once he joins the MCU.

X-Men and the 7 Soldiers of Victory

This story takes place shortly after the events of STF #1700, where the 7 Soldiers found themselves trapped in the wrong decade and educating at the Xavier institute. But which student will have to return with them? Make sure that you come back here tomorrow for the exciting conclusion!

Shining Knight and Valkyrie

 

When these two heroes first appeared together in STF #2568, Bob Greenwade (a patron of this blog) suggested that I revisit the pairing, but with the two their winged horse companions.   Well, here you go, Bob! I can't blame him for the request, one Pegasus makes for a majestic sight, why not two?  Well for one reason, two can be tough to fit on a single cover!  I was glad I found a way, though.

Seven Soldiers of Victory Vs. The Invaders in: "Victory Slap!"

 

This year may be a bit tougher than most to find things to be thankful for, but I am still counting my blessings.  I am glad I will get to see at least a few of my relatives today for the holiday.  I am also of course thankful to all who take the time to stop and visit this blog on a regular basis so that I can share my love of comic artists and characters with them.  Happy Thanksgiving!

These two teams first crossed paths in STF #2824...

Doctor Strange and The Shining Knight

 

It was a pleasant surprise to see Sir Justin, The Shining Knight, show up on the Stargirl series. I guess I should not have been surprised, as he was a major supporting character in the Stars and S.T.R.I.P.E. comic book.  Hopefully in the second season his clouded memories will clear up and we can see him fully suited up for action.

7 Soldiers of Victory and Doctor Strange

It will be interesting to see in the Seven Soldiers of Victory will get a mention in the upcoming Stargirl series.  After all, that was Stripesy's team - he was never really a member of the Justice Society along with The Star Spangled Kid, if memory serves.  It may be a bit of a deep dive, but I've seen more obscure references on the CW.

7 Soldiers of Victory and The Invaders

The JLA/JSA crossovers that featured the heroes of two Earths coming together, often with a third Earth in the mix, introduced me into the concept of the multiverse.  I loved the idea, but DC must have thought it too complicated after a while, for it  lead to reboots in an attempt to streamline everything (which, of course, only made things more complicated).  These days, the multiverse is back, and is widely understood thanks to shows like Fringe and The Flash, plus movies like Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse and news of the Upcoming Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. I'm glad the rest of the world has finally caught up to us comic fans!

Valkyrie and The Shining Knight

Morgaine le Fey (or Morgan le Fay, among other spellings) is one of those public domain characters that have made their presence known in various types of literature, including both Marvel and DC Comics.  I like to think that it's the same character appearing in both, creating an unofficial crossover between the superhero universes.

7 Soldiers of Victory and The Liberty Legion

The Seven Soldiers of Victory were quite a contrast from the Justice Society - in a good way.  The JSA for the most part was made up of incredibly powerful characters that could host a solo comic of their own.  The 7 soldiers mainly consisted of non-powered adventurers that usually appeared in back-up tales.  I liked the difference in roster types, it helped to make each team a little more unique to me.

Shining Knight and Iron Man

Iron Man #150, in which Tony Stark and Doctor Doom are sent to the time of King Arthur and must find their way back, is one of my all-time favorite comic books.  I read it over and over when I was a kid.  Seeing the two adversaries have to work together and combine their technology to find a way home made for an excellent tale. 

Seven Swordsmen

Back in another life, when I went to acting school, I took a fencing class, and it was an absolute blast.  There were a few offensive and defensive moves to learn, and once I had them down, it was easy to choreograph battles.  We would practice in slow motion until we got it perfect and then switch to real time.  Tons of fun!

7 Soldiers of Victory and The Human Torch

When people talk about accessibility of comics, sometimes I don't think they give kids enough credt for being able to figure things out.  One of the very first comic stories I read as a kid - and one that got me hooked was Justice League of America #100-102, which featured the JLA, JSA and Seven Soldiers of Victory in one big adventure.  Even Metamorpho came along for the ride!  I wasn't put off by so many characters I hadn't seen before - indeed, I was dazzled by them and wanted to find out more.

Snow White and the Seven Soldiers of Victory

I thought that this team-up suggestion by Bob Greenwade in the comments section of a recent cover was a little odd, but it kept rattling around in the back of my brain, so I decided to give it a shot.  I actually caught some of Snow White and the Seven Dwarves on TV yesterday, and after all these years I still find it very watchable.  The artwork and animation holds up amazingly well, it's a testament to the talents of the Disney crew that worked on it so many decades ago.

Shining Knight and Excalibur

I enjoy reading about The Shining Knight in the way that I enjoy some of my favorite Captain America stories.  The whole "man out of time" concept is always an interesting plot device and works even better with Sir Justin.  I'm a big fan of The Seven Soldiers of Victory and All-Star Squadron as well, so wherever he shows up is usually a treat for me.
