Darkwolf and Conan

 

The painted covers by Earl Norem and Joe Jusko never fail to impress, an I was glad to combine the two legendary artists here. Have either of them done interior work or did they just stick to pasters ands covers?

Doc Samson and Two-Face

 

Harvey Dent indeed needs therapy, and who better to administer it than a super-strong shrink?  It would certainly be an interesting process to watch play out.

Spider-Man and Green Arrow in: "Dire Consequences!"

 

It was very cool to see behind the scenes footage of Spider-Man: Brand New Day featuring practical web swinging by Tom Holland and his stunt men.  It's cool to see that kind of filmmaking in this age of digital effects, and I can't wait to see how that scene looks in the finished film.

Spider-Man and Green Arrow previously met in STF #1364...

Power Man & Iron Fist and The Titans

 

The New Teen Titans was my go-to comic for nonstop action back in the day.  I still remember the issue where the team invaded the Brotherhood of Evil's headquarters, great stuff.  Hopefully the story above would offer the same bang for your buck.

Tron and The Vision

 

The original Tron is one of my favorite films of my youth.  Tron: Legacy had some interesting visuals, but was kind of a disappointment to me.  Now we are seeing trailers for Tron: Ares, and I'm not sure how the film will turn out.  I do like the idea of characters from the game world entering our reality, thought.  I hope this one does the property justice.

Hourman and She-Hulk

 

Just why would a founding JSA member and a gamma-induced Avenger join forces to confront a tyrant on the other side of the galaxy? I'm not sure... but I would have been willing to shell out sixty cents to find out!

James Bond and The Hulk

 

I guess if Felix Leiter wasn't available, 007 found another American ally to assist him in his latest mission.  I'd say this one is bound to have some considerable collateral damage!

Big Barda and Red Sonja

 

Barda is seeking out some great warrior women to fill out her new team, and asking Red Sonja to join seemed like the perfect way to start. There are still three more spots to fill, though.  Who will be recruited next?  Stay tuned to future issues of STF to find out!

Power Pack and Robin

 

It's only fitting that these kids cross paths with comicdom's first sidekick.  I'm still waiting to hear details on the planned Batman: The Brave and the Bold movie, and whether Dick  Grayson will plar a role, as Damian is the rumored Robin of that story.

Brother Voodoo and The Phantom Stranger

 

The Phantom Stranger is a character that I really hope shows up on screen in the new DCU.  I can see him showing up as a supporting character in multiple films.  It would be a great role for an actor to have fun with, but who best to cast?

Daredevil and Grendel

 

I feel like these two would go well in a story together. They seem to run in the same circles.  There's definitely a great film noir type story to be told.

Supergirl and Iron Man

 

Now that Superman is available home home viewing, I am expecting the publicity for Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow to start ramping up soon. It will be interesting to see how the film differs from the first DCU entry, despite it featuring another member of the Super family.

Doctor Who on the Planet of the Apes

 

Doctor Who with Tom Baker was appointment television after school when I was growing up. I was also a fan of the short lived Planet of the Apes TV series.  If there had been a crossover between the two, I think that I would have been beside myself.

Blue Beetle and Rom

 

Time for another double dose of Ditko. His skilled design work extended to the various creatures that he would create. This big guy wasn't given a name, so I cam up with one for him.

Mister Miracle and Invisible Girl

 

I hear Vanessa Kirby is a standout as Sue Storm in Fantastic Four: First Steps.  I look forward to seeing what kind of innovative ways she uses her powers in the film, as well as her relationship with Reed, Johnny and Ben.

Peacemaker and The Punisher

 

The new season of Peacemaker will be airing soon on HBO Max.  The first season was surprisingly enjoyable, and it will be very interesting to see how the show changes between the DCEU and James Ginn's new DCU. I'm also dying to see the new opening credits sequence.

Challengers of the Unknown and Rocket Raccoon

 

The Guardians of the Galaxy trilogy may be completed, but I hope that sometime down the line we see the team again.  I liked seeing Rocket Raccoon take his leadership role, and it would be cool to see him calling the shots on a mission.

The Thing and Sandman

 

A deceptively simple looking cover - but it took a lot of caption removal and image replacement before I could add Dream in.  Here is a look behind the scenes: 

The Super Visors

 

This team comes directly from the comment section of this blog, right down to the name.  I forget actually who was discussing it, but I wrote down the idea for a team of visor-wearing heroes and it it was so silly that it stuck with me.  I finally decided to tackle it..

Justice League of America Vs. The Super-Adaptoid

 

I had to remove The Avengers as well as some other items before I could add in the JLA on this cover.  Here's a look at the behind the scenes progress:
