Space Ghost and Iron Man

 

A rollicking tale of two heroes facing evil interstellar villains, illustrated by the amazing Steve Rude?  I know that I'd pick up a copy.

Legion of Super-Heroes and Space Ghost

 

I'd like to see these two properties together.  I can imagine Jan and Jace being big fans of the LSH. I'm sure there are some sort of time travel shenanigans that could get them all together.

The Thing joins The Wacky Races

 

Sure, Dick Dastardly was a bad guy, but he definitely had one of the cooler vehicles in The Wacky Races. I never thought Muttley was really all that bad though, he just always seemed to be laughing and having a good time.

Barda and The New Furies

 

The team is assembled at last!  I'd say that this is a pretty formidable group, more than ready for any challenges that might await them.  I have to imagine that Granny Goodness isn't going to be happy when she learns of to this new team.

Barda recruited Dart STF #5042, Xena in STF #5011, Hellcat in STF #4964 and Red Sonja in STF #4881.

Nexus Vs. Darth Vader

 

Nexus makes a point of going after mass murderers, so anyone involved in the development of a Death Star would definitely warrant his attention.  Vader is a tough opponent though, let's hope Nexus knows how to use that Light Saber!

Green Lantern and Daredevil (Vs. The Hate Monger!)

 

I'm hoping that we get a trailer for the HBO Max Lanterns series soon.  It looks like Aaron Pierre as John Stewart will be the main GL of the DCU, and I am interested to see what he will do with the role. I've only heard him speak with his actual English accent, so I am looking forward to his vocalization of the character - I still hear Phil LaMarr in my head when I see John Stewart on the printed page.

Space Ghost joins Star Wars

 

It was only a matter of time before the greatest animated space hero crossed paths with the rebels from a galaxy far, far away.  I think that this is a tale with the potential for grand heroics and wide screen adventure.

Adam Strange and Magnus: Robot Fighter

 

Giant robots wrapped in a science-based mystery is just the type of situation that would get these two together.  I'd love to see them share an adventure.

Superman Vs. The Red Skull

 

The promotional materials for the new Superman movie should be ramping up soon with the release date getting closer.  I am looking forward to seeing a full trailer, but who am I kidding, I'm already sold by the teaser (and honestly, they had me at Metamorpho) - maybe I should skip it to avoid spoilers?  Who am I kidding again, I know I won't be able to resist watching!

Batman Beyond and Space Ghost

 


This is a cartoon special that I would love to see.  These heroes have two simple yet amazing costume designs that are perfect for animation, and it would be glorious to see them together.  The Space Ghost appearance on Batman: The Brave and the Bold is one of the highlights of that series.

The Punisher Vs. Nexus

 

This is another cover that looks relatively simple, but required a bit of prep work.  I had to remove and replace Nexus's targets prior to adding Frank Castle in.  Here is a look at the behind the scenes progress:

Spider-Man and The Challengers of the Unknown

 

The fourth Tom Holland led Spider-Man movie now a go according to the actor.  Rumors have swirled from the plot being tied in heavily to the two upcoming Avengers: Secret Wars films to a smaller, more street level adventure.  I think that I would prefer the latter.  I loved the status quo set up at the end of the last movie, and would like to see that explored a little before he gets mixed up with a big crazy universe-changing story again.

The Thing and Hawkman & Hawkgirl

 


This is the Thing's third outing with Hawkman.  They first appeared together in a MTIO cover from my MS Paint days, then they had a classic adventure in STF #3632. I thought that it was time for Hawkgirl to get in on the action.

Spider-Man and The Guardian

 

We've seen Peter Parker put his smarts to work for various companies over the years, so why not Cadmus Laboratories?  I think its a simple set up that could lead to all kinds of fun stories.

Nexus and Grendel

 


Grendel and Nexus were two characters that I didn't read much of when they first appeared, as the titles that they appeared in weren't available where I shopped.  Still, I thought they looked really cool from what I did see of them, and I was a fan of both Steve Rude and Matt Wagner - so I made a point to seek out some of their adventures later on.  Great stuff.

Space Ghost and The Tick

 

While Space Ghost Coast to Coast was a fun series, I preferred the Hanna-Barbera star as a straight up hero.  But who could take his place for hosting duties?  Given his outgoing personality, I thing that The Tick would be the perfect candidate for such an assignment.

Doctor Doom on the Planet of the Apes

 

I remember the early 70's when Apes were everywhere.  My brothers and I would watch the Planet of the Apes TV series and we had lunch boxes, trading cards action figures and more dedicated to the post apocalyptic franchise. Something about that monkey world really grabbed my young imagination.

Superman and Cyclops

 

When The X-Men finally come to the MCU, one of the main things I want to see is a far better treatment of Cyclops.  The previous actors in the role did a fine job, it's just that they were not given much to work with.  Fans want to see Scott Summers as the seasoned field leader we know from the comics rather than a straight man relegated to the background until he is unceremoniously killed off.

Wing Command

 

There was a discussion in a comments section a while back about creating an all-winged team.  I originally thought it would be tough to do given the space that winged characters generally take up on a cover, especially with all the different candidates for such a team. I figured I would try the concept but limit it to heroes that have feathered wings, and that seemed to be more manageable.

Space Ghost Vs. Doctor Doom

 

I featured this match up as one of the back up tales in STF #3100, but I felt that it was strong enough to deserve an issue all by itself.  Actually, this scene looks to be taking place merely moments after the one depicted on that cover.  Consider this an expanded version of that classic tale!

Coming tomorrow: STF #3500!
