Team-Ups That Never Were, Lovingly Illustrated

Via Tony Isabella comes this link: Super-Team Family: The Lost Issues. It’s a site where a fan named Ross posts his own cover mash-ups, teaming up DC and Marvel characters that should have met but haven’t. I found the art impressive for a cut-n-paste job (which doesn’t do it justice). For example, everyone’s thought about Green Arrow meeting Hawkeye, but what about the two blind guys, as shown here?
Or this bizarre space-faring saga?
Check the link for lots more.

It’s a great site. It started out with months of Brave and the Bold teamups that never were, featuring Batmand and unlikely guest-stars. Then it transformed into a series of “lost” issues of Marvel Two-in-One, featuring the Thing with other characters. The Super-Team Family mode that recently got underway is fun as well.

I don’t get the Starfire/Rom team up. Seems like Lilandra or Gamora would have been better choices for her Marvel counterpart

Cool site! I really like the Dr. Mid-nite & DD one, that’s the best of the bunch so far.
I like the idea of Captain America and Wonder Woman one, as I had never really thought how much they had in common with the WW2 history, etc. The cover could have been better though, not much going on there.

GDW, I like that he picked ROM because I’ve heard of that character, while I’ve never heard of the ones you mention. :)
James, I think he’s limited to what he can reuse from other covers. I do like that he comes up with story ideas, not just putting the images together.

I love the dialogue on the Starfire-Rom one. I know we’re all sophisticated grownups now, but I miss the era when covers had word balloons on them. Tiny Titans is the lone holdout I can think of these days.
