The thing I like about the whole concept of cross-company crossovers, and, indeed, team-ups in general, is the basic challenge that's inherent, if the writers don't get lazy. And, by lazy, I mean those Sub-Mariner/Aquaman, Green Arrow/Hawkeye, Dr. Fate/Dr. Strange style teams that so many fans seem to think of first. This was what I liked about the original SUPERMAN vs THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN. That seemed like a mismatched pairing, if ever there was one, and yet it worked in the end. So, something like Batman/FF would be most intriguing, and a little challenging. Tho not, perhaps, as challenging as, say, Human Torch/Martian Manhunter! ------------------------------------------------------------ -------------------------------- Good points, JB! You know, I think that some of the Amalgamations would have made great team-ups. Storm and Wonder Woman, for example, are both women of great power, dignity, and influence in their respective universes, but their powers are very different, their origins/backgrounds are very different...it's not "obvious" that they should team up...not to me, at least. ......although some "obvious" team-ups could be lots of fun....Wonder Woman and Thor comes to mind. Romance, maybe? :)
