Swamp Thing and Tigra

 

 A new Swamp Thing movie has been discussed but can't seen to get off the ground.  Director James Mangold has expressed interest in directing, which is an encouraging sign.  Hopefully any delays and setbacks are due to a desire to get a script and direction for the property just right.  

Avengers and Green Lantern in: "Infinity Fever!"

 

Hal Jordan first crossed paths with The Avengers way back in STF #5, an MS Paint effort from 2011. I'd say it was high time for another meeting - although this encounter looks just a fraught with friction as the first!

Amanda Waller and The West Coast Avengers

 

I was expecting to see Amanda Waller appear at some point in Peacemaker season two, but she did not show up.  There was talk of a solo Waller series in the works, but I don't think that is happening any more.  Hopefully we will see Viola Davis back in the role in one of the DCU's upcoming projects.

Tigra and Starfire

 

I think that these two go well together. Both look great, with their sexy outfits and flowing hair - Both have been depicted as passionate in their relationships and fierce in a battle.  I'm surprised that I never thought to pair them with one another until now.

Jonah Hex and The West Coast Avengers

 

We've seen stories where Hex moves ahead in time, but I like it when heroes from the future come back to visit him as well.  I remember really liking the two part story in Justice League of America #198-199, where the leaguers met a bunch of DC's Western heroes.  I would be cool to see the Avengers do the same.

Chewbacca and The Fur Force in: "Trial by Fur!"

 

It looks like the third appearance of this team will truly put its leader to the test.  Let's hope this hairy rebel has what it takes to see it through.  Chewbacca and The Fur Force last appeared as an animated series in STF #3920, and made their debut in STF #1258.

Tigra and Bronze Tiger

 Bronze Tiger was a favorite of mine in John Ostrander's Suicide Squad stories back in the day, so I was disappointed to not see the character included in either of the live action movies.  I guess there's a chance he could show up in the Amanda Waller series that is being planned, there may be a new version of Task Force X introduced in that. 

Chewbacca and The Fur Force (The Animated Series!)

 

For the return of these fur-covered crusaders, I thought that it might be interesting to see what a cartoon featuring them might be like.  I also added a new member.  

Chewbacca and The Fur Force first appeared in STF #1258...

Tigra and Cat-Man (Part 7 of 7)

 

Presenting the conclusion to our week-long tale.  It looks like Tigra and Cat-Man have finally gotten out from under The Ringmaster's control - but there's still no love lost between them.  Even kibitzing from all of our previous guest stars will not be enough to bring about a reconciliation.  I hope you enjoyed this multi-part tale, I have some ideas for more that may appear on the blog in the future.

Tigra and Cat-Man (Part 6 of 7)

 

In the penultimate chapter of our week-long tale, we see that the master that Tigra was referring to is none other that the villainous Ringmaster!  No wonder these sworn enemies are working together again.  Let's hope they can get out from under his thrall in time for tomorrow's final chapter!

Tigra and Cat-Man (Part 5 of 7)

 

As we hit Part 5 in our week-long tale, and it looks like Tigra wants to bring the team back together again - but why would she after all that's happened?  And just who is this new master that she mentions?  There's more to this story, so make sure you come back tomorrow for chapter 6!

Tigra and Cat-Man (Part 4 of 7)

 

As we pass the midway point in our week-ling tale, we see that Cat-Man is seeking revenge against Tigra for busting up his crime wave.  Let's hope Uncle Ted has arrived in time.  it's hard to see any reconciliation happening now - make sure you tune in tomorrow to see where this story goes next!

Regular STF visitors know that Tigra is Wildcat's niece, as outlined in STF #2551.  They first shared a cover on STF #1265...

Tigra and Cat-Man (Part 3 of 7)

 

For the third chapter of our 7-part epic, we see that Tigra has not taken to kindly to the way she was treated by Cat-Man after giving him a chance to reform.  Not even Gotham's original guardian will stop her from bringing him back to justice!  I can't imagine Cat-Man will take this too well - make sure you check in tomorrow for chapter 4 to see what his reaction is!

Tigra and Cat-Man (Part 2 of 7)

 

For the second part of our week-long tale, we see that this alliance between a hero and a villain was doomed to fail. At the first sight of adversity, Cat-Man has turned tail and abandoned his partner.  You can bet she won't forget this if they should ever cross paths again - which they will in Part 3, coming tomorrow!

Tigra and Cat-Man (Part 1 of 7)

 

Presenting the longest continued tale yet for The Lost Issues - This pairing of feline-themed characters will span the years and include some special guest stars along the way.  Here we see the beginning of the Tigra/Cat-Man team - but how successful can such an alliance be?  Tune in tomorrow for chapter two to see where this story goes next!

Tigra and Zatanna

 

Zatanna is another DC Character that has had a movie announcement with no following information since.  There have been rumors that it will be a solo movie and others that indicate it may be a Justice League Dark story featuring other DC supernatural characters, with Zatanna in the lead.  There have even been actresses teasing that they are up for the role.  Still, with no official announcements, I'm not holding my breath waiting for this one.  It's been eight years since The Rock first started talking about playing Black Adam, after all.

Vixen and Tigra

Tigra is overdue for a live action debut, though she might be a tough character to pull off on screen.  I imagine that her outfit is considered too skimpy for Disney's standards, and her fur covered form will either require expensive CGI or a full-body makeup job to bring to life.  Still, I always liked her personality and time on the Avengers, so I hope she is introduced eventually.

Robin and Tigra

 There have been rumors that a Nightwing movie is not off the table.  It seems odd to me not to have a Robin first that graduates into being Nightwing, but Warner Bros seems to like jumping around in DC continuity, so I'm not that surprised that they would skip that chapter of Dick Grayson's journey.  We'll see if anything develops beyond the talking stages.

Tigra and Wildcat in: "From Champ to Chaperone!"

When these two first appeared together in STF #1265,  I didn't make their family connection clear on the cover, so I figured that I would rectify that here. Wildcat is known for training and mentoring many a hero through the years, it's only natural that he would do so with his own relatives. I hope he shows up on the new Stargirl series.

Tigra and Tarzan

It will probably be a while before we see Tigra join the Marvel Cinematic Universe.  With The Cheetah set to make her debut in the upcoming Wonder Woman 1984, Tigra will probably seem too similar in nature to introduce too quickly afterwards. Still, I always liked her personality and I hope she shows up somewhere down the line/
