Blackhawk and The Human Torch

 

It's about time that Blackhawk me some other high-flying heroes from World War II.  let's just hope that he can keep his balance up there!

Wonder Woman and The Whizzer

 

This might have been a fun Golden Age pairing to see.  Here's another random villain from those days. It's too bad The Future man didn't stick around - I guess there wasn't much to his future after all!

Captain Marvel and Black Panther

 

These two characters might not have a lot in common, but hey - gigantic monsters storming the countryside would tend to bring all kinds of heroes together.  I know that I would read it!

Wildcat and The Blonde Phantom (Vs. The Ringmaster!)

 

The Ringmaster and his Circus of Crime may never have hit A-Level super-villain status, but I always enjoyed when they would show up in the comics.  I don't know if we'll ever see them appear in the MCU.   Maybe an appearance on one of their streaming series might work. Maynard Tiboldt would certainly be a fun role for an actor to dive into

Wildcat first met the Blonde Phantom in STF #3826...

Batman and The Blonde Phantom

 

I've been re-watching the entire run of Batman: The Brave and the Bold on HBO Max and it's just such a fun show.  The love for DC Comics history shows in every episode, I'm amazed at some of the characters they decided to use.  I can't seem to find Justice League Action on the service, however.  I'd love to do a re-watch of that series as well -  I'm not sure I caught all of the episodes when they were first briadcast.

Sub-Mariner meets Dick Tracy

 

Now that Namor has been introduced to the MCU, I wonder where he will show up next.  My choice would be for him to team up with Dr. Strange and The Hulk (and The Silver Surfer, if he shows up in Fantastic Four as has been rumored) for a Defenders movie.  That way, Marvel can get around the loophole that Hulk and Sub-Mariner cannot have their own solo films.  I'd also like to see him putting the moves on Sue Storm just as he has done in the comics.  

Blonde Phantom and Wildcat

 

I've already established that Tigra is Wildcat's niece on this blog, and I thought it might be nice to give the JSA's resident pugilist a sister as well.  I come from a big family - I have four brothers and two sisters, so stories about relationships between siblings have always appealed to me.

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...

Superman and The Whizzer

I always got a kick out of the Superman/Flash races, so it might be fun to see the man of Steel go up against some other speedsters.  I also get a kick out of reading  Superman's earliest adventures, and the closer race would be with him at the beginning of his career, before his powers started to dramatically increase during comics' Silver Age.  Plus, I love those cool original boots and "S" shield of his!

Blonde Phantom and Black Canary

Having Earth One Black Canary be revealed to actually be the daughter of the original Earth Two Black Canary was a retcon that made sense to me.  I always wondered if there was an age difference between Dinah and Green Arrow when they became a couple, since she had been sharing adventures with the Justice Society for a while before he came along.  I also fondly remember an issue of Secret Origins which featured both of the Black Canaries, streamlining their history and focusing on their relationship with one another.

Wonder Girl and Bucky

I featured these two together as a back-up tale in STF #1149, which was part of the ongoing Wonder Woman / Captain America saga on this blog, but I felt they deserved a cover all their own.  I used to be amused at how each male member of the original Teen Titans seemed to have a crush on Donna Troy, and I imagine that Bucky Barnes would have been similarly smitten.

Bucky and Robin in: "What's Cooking in Dr. Moreau's Basement?"

Robin and Bucky have a bit of history on STF: The Lost Issues:

Once, Robin considered taking over for Bucky...

There was the time they tackled zombies together...

They met later in their careers as Nightwing and The Winter Soldier...

They met when their teams shared an adventure...

Bucky has even tried to take over for Robin, once solo, and once with The Young Allies.

Jonah Hex and Red Wolf

We have seen a couple of versions of Jonah Hex on the big and small screen, with varying degrees of success, and I am sure we will again at some point down the line.  How cool would it have been to have seen a live action Hex back in the day though?  I can imagine Clint Eastwood in his prime taking on the role,
