Batman and the modern day Black Knight faced off on a Lost B&B cover from way back in 2010, so I thought that it was high time that he met the original version. I have to imagine that their capes would really get in the way in a swordfight, though!

Pietro Maximoff has a decidedly different personality than Barry Allen or Wally West. It would be interesting to watch the interaction between him and the Flash Rogues. There seems to be at least some respect between them and their usual speedsters, and I's like to see them go a few rounds with the ill-tempered mutant.
Next year we will be seeing Galactus and The Authority in the big screen. Well, Only the Engineer is slated to show up in Superman, but I am sure that seed will be planted for the entire Authority team, as they have an upcoming announced movie of their own. Galactus as a concept has been seen in the movies before, but Fantastic Four: First Steps will at last bring the character to live action. Let's hope everyone is done justice.
This marks the sweet sixteenth appearance of The Danvers Twins on the Blog. Despite the fact that Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow has not begun filming yet, Milly Alcock has been seen sporting long blonde hair recently. This has led to speculation that she will be appearing as the famous Kryptonian cousin at least briefly in the upcoming Superman movie. That sounds like a good theory, I'm guessing she will show up right at the end or in a post-credits scene.
We kept getting teased with Mr. Mind in the Shazam! movies, but he never got more than quick cameos. He's just the kind of odd character that James Gunn seems to like, though - so I am holding out hope that he will eventually get his due in the new cinematic DCU.
You just know that if these two actually shared a universe, they would be bound to clash sooner or later. Would Adrian Chase continue to hunt down the wall-crawler... or would he eventually fight by his side?
I got a kick out of the old Tarzan cartoons from my youth. They felt superhero-adjacent to me and I liked the character designs. Even as a kid, the limited animation did stand out to me. I remember getting a little annoyed with all of the re-used sequences.
This is a team concept that has been discussed in the comments and I thought that is was time to put it together. The first three members of this group were easy to pick, but there is a wide choice of funny animal characters that are known to talk straight to the audience. Bugs Bunny was the one that made the biggest impression on me, so he got the nod.
Ambush Bug previously met She-Hulk in STF #3928, and Deadpool in STF #285...
As I had hoped, Metamorpho will be getting a push now that he will be getting his live action debut in the upcoming Superman movie. DC Comics has announced the first ongoing Metamorpho comic in decades. Let's hope it can reach the heights of the Bob Haney/Ramona Fradon classic series.
It will be interesting to see where the Marvel Cinematic Universe ends up after the Russo Brothers close up the Multiverse Saga with their two upcoming Avengers movies. Will Steve Rogers be back in the role of Cap through some multiversal shenanigans? Would he stick around if so? I'm guessing a lot will depend on how well Captain America: Brave New World performs at the box office with Sam Wilson in the title role.
These three characters have all had entertaining animated appearances, now it's time to see them in live action. Man-Bat is long overdue to show up in a Batman movie and Detective Chimp is certainly on the short list if a Justice League Dark movie ever gets past the talking stages. I'm surprised that the Savage Land has not been introduced into the MCU - but once it does, that would be a great place for DD to make his debut.
Out of all of the cast of the upcoming Creature Commandos series, G.I. Robot is the one that I am the most curious about. I really hope that James Gunn does the classic war comics character justice. I'm equally curious as to how Sean Gunn will perform the robotic voice.
Would have loved to have seen this crossover for real. Especially when they both had their own cartoon shows. That would have made for a mind-blowing Saturday morning!
I checked out Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes recently, and I thought it was a pretty decent installment in the current run of PotA movies. I'm not sure where the series will go from here, as it seems to be getting to the point in time where the original classic film took place.
Red Tornado already has the power of The Tornado Tyrant within him, as told when his origin was fleshed out in one of my favorite JLA tales. Getting an infusion from Galactus would really put him over the top. It would be interesting to see what the ramifications of such a change would be.
Here's a pairing that is worthy of a revisit. It would only a be matter of time before these web-footed swashbucklers would cross paths if they were owned by the same company. They aren't, of course, but that's what STF: The Lost Issues is here for!
These two first appeared together in STF #4207...
With The Ghost set to appear in Thunderbolts, I hope we get an update as to the whereabouts of Bill Foster in the MCU. He was last seen going off with her at the end of Ant-Man and the Wasp, after all. I also still hope we will someday get a flashback scene of him in full on Giant-Man action!
Namorita joined the Teen Titans back in STF #1714, and the team previously crossed paths with her and her cousin, The Sub-Mariner and back in STF #2648. I figured that the third part in this ongoing saga should involve a third sea-faring guest star, and that was an opportunity to use the always cool Stingray.
