Yoda Vs. Thanos

 

We all loved Yoda in the original Star Wars trilogy at the end of his career as a wise mentor.  It was great to see him in his prime in the prequel trilogy.  Baby Yoda on The Mandalorian was a smash hit. Let's hope, though, that Disney can resist the urge now to give audiences Teen Yoda in an angsty drama on the CW or something  - that may be a bridge too far.

Mace Windu and Samurai Jack

 

As a fan of both Star Wars and the animation of Genndy Tartakovsky, I was intrigued when I learned he had turned his talents on to a galaxy far, far away.  I was finally able to watch Tartakovsky's Clone Wars series on MAX, and it did not disappoint.  They are worth checking out for the light saber battles alone.

Chewbacca and The Legion of Superheroes

 

I remember being excited to see the Muppet Show episode where Mark Hamill and characters from Star Wars appeared.  Chewbacca appeared without his ammunition strap so he looked kind of naked to me.  Still, it's one of the best Muppets episodes - the Pigs in Space sequence in this one is a masterpiece.

Green Lantern and Luke Skywalker

 

These two seem to be cut from the same cloth in many ways. They both loved the thrill of fast paced action even before they came into possession of some of the most powerful weapons in the galaxy. I think they would fight together well.

The High Evolutionary joins Star Wars

 

The High Evolutionary seems like just the kind of villain that would be employed by The Empire.  I can see them turning to him to help produce an army of soldiers to replace the Stormtroopers (perhaps with better aim).  Let's hope a rag-tag team of rebels can upset his plans before they are fully in motion!

Green Lantern and Ahsoka

 

I'm not sure when we will see Ahsoka in live action again.  I thought that her Disney+ series was planned for more than one season, but have not heard about production starting back up.  The Mandalorian and Grogu movie has reportedly begun moving forward, however.  Perhaps she will show up there.

Judge Dredd and Han Solo

 

There would definitely be plenty of friction between these two if they were forced to work together on a mission.  That alone would be enough to make for an interesting story to watch unfold.  Pity the Hutts or whoever that get in their way when they are fighting side by side, though!

Boba Fett and Wolverine

 

After being disappointed with the more recent Marvel and Star Wars offerings on Disney+, I wasn't holding out much hope for X-Men '97.  I was happy to find out that my apprehensions were unjustified and the series was a blast to watch.  It truly felt like a successor to the original series, with improved animation that still honored the original designs.  The stories are told at a breakneck pace, I was surprised how many comics storylines they covered in just this one season - but for me it all worked.  I'm looking forward to the show coming back.

Robo Force in: "Under Siege!"

 

This marks the ninth appearance of Robo Force on this blog, and this cover required a little prep work before adding in the images of our heroes in peril.  There was some background repair and extension required, as well as cleaning up the coloring since I couldn't find a crisp digital image of this splash page.  Here's a look at the behind the scenes progress:

Swamp Thing, Kermit the Frog and Grogu

 

They are a trio of green good guys that are right at home in the swamps of Dagobah.  It might be fun to see how they would interact, and just what kind of mission calls for all of their special sets of skills.

Orion and Princess Leia

 

Space-faring freedom fighters with dads that want to conquer the galaxy?  Yup, these two have plenty in common.  I think there would be a ton of story potential in putting them together.

Darth Vader and Darkseid first encountered each other in STF # 2184, and then again in STF #2343 and are both members of The Overlords, as seen in STF #2490...

Groo the Wanderer and Darth Vader

 

This battle between simpleton and Sith may seem a bit one-sided, but Groo has a way of overcoming impossible odds.  It would be a kick to watch their interaction, especially if the amazing Sergio Aragones were to illustrate it!

Darth Vader Vs. General Zod

 

We saw Anakin Skywalker's mother in The Phantom Menace, but they never identified who his father was.  Perhaps his mom didn't tell him because she didn't want him to know of his Kryptonian parentage.  It would help explain his mean streak and now we know why he has such an issue with Superman, as seen in STF #1171 and STF #3134...

Lando Calrissian and The Phantom

 

The Phantom identity has been passed down through time, so who's to say just how far back it goes?  Maybe all the way to a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...

Iron Man and Darth Vader

 

Ken Roskos, a Patron of this Blog, suggested I pair these two together, and I was surprised that is was a match up that I had not gotten to yet.  I fondly remember Iron Man's reluctant team ups with Doctor Doom, and I think that a tale like this could give the same vibe.  

Robin & Starfire Vs. Darth Vader

 

Darth Vader and Starfire have a bit of history on this blog - Starfire first ran afoul of the Empire in STF #397, and was taken hostage by Vader in STF #398... (her marriage to The Silver Surfer was resolved in STF #2200, if you're curious).  Vader was last seen taunting Starfire by joining forces with her sister in STF #3047.

Lando Calrissian Vs. Aliens

 

There has been talk of a solo Lando Calrissian series on Disney+ with Donald Glover reprising the role.  The Disney+ Star Wars shows have definitely been a mixed bag thus far. Let's hope that if this show does move forward, a little more thought is put into the scripts.  Maybe once the Hollywood writer's strike is over, we'll get some stories truly worthy of the Star Wars name.

Darth Vader and He-Man

 

The worlds of Star Wars and Masters of the Universe seem perfect for a crossover.  I'm sure there are plenty of kids who did just that in toy form over the years, mixing and matching action figures and playsets. It would be cool to see these famous glowing weapons up against each other.

Han Solo and Space Ghost

 

Han Solo eventually grudgingly accepted the concept of The Force, but I wonder how he would react if he found himself having to fight side by side with a space-faring superhero.  I'm guessing that Han might wonder what space Ghost's motives would be, but as long as they had a common enemy to pursue they would make for a formidable team.

Gandalf and Boba Fett

May the Fourth be With You!  These guys could have gotten a lot done if they swapped franchises.  That jet pack would have come in handy on the trip to Mount Doom.  And Gandalf's Staff against a Light Saber is a battle that would be epic to see!
