Biggest Nightmare Crossover. LSH/Wolverine, by Mark Millar and Alex Maleev...it's not the fall that kills you. No. Superman/Namor, by Bendis and McNiven. Ditto. Ms. Marvel/Mantis/Numinous, by Warren Ellis and Greg Land. Actually this one's so retarded it just might work. And just that I said that means Marvel's probably going to offer it to Ellis now. Ellis, though, let me ask you: how many braces do your kids really need? Turn this one down. How about the opposite? Biggest Nightmare Crossover.

This should be like WildCats/Xmen mini series but instead of four issues go to six issues with Warren Ellis & Bendis writing and John Cassaday,Jim Lee,and Rob liefeld doing the art. I got a few:

Still, a pretty good one. I'll second Guy Gardner: Heral Of Galactus then, or Marvel Zombies vs Bizarro World. *Slaps forehead*

The prize is a mystic gem that renders its wearer invincible. All the greatest non-powered fighters from two universes are there, but our story follows these four, who seek the gem for their own varied reasons, and all of whom feel that the fate of the world is at stake if they fail: Shang Chi, Black Canary, Batroc ze Leaper and Matches Malone.

Could this country be close to Latveria? Druig vs Doom seems like a plausable and interesting premise. War brewing between rival power-hungry states, both headed by a supervillain! Political thriller with a dash of superheroism, well, villainism actually. I'm thinking Brian K Vaughan as writer (good with the political intrigue) and JRJR as artist (just because).

I'd go with Young Warriors, featuring Thrasher (bird-themed kid hero), Nova Boy (clone of a great Nova Corps member) and Fastball (aka Bart Baldwin). And Peter David had a great idea for a title back then: <i>Snapper Jones: Sidekick For Hire</i>. As for a team-up...Phantom Stranger and Uatu. Twenty-two pages of them watching, not interfering, and going out for a drink. I kinda miss Amalgam.

I guess it would depend where he got his powers. Maybe it was a new spider/beetle hybrid that bit him and he'd be "Spider Beetle", or "Blue Spider Beetle-Man" If Ditko wrote & drew it--I'd be there.

They fall in love, natch, but Cap must return to Man's World to punch Hitler. The Wonder Woman decides to go with him and help defeat the Nazis. Cap and WW fight their way across fortress Europe until they meet Hitler's Secret Weapon: the Mighty Thor, driven hopelessly insane by the psychic broil of a world war fought in his name. As Thor and WW battle, Cap finds the Spear of Destiny, the only object that can defeat Thor. In the skies about the North Sea, Thor is choking-out Wonder Woman. Cap leaps from an airplane and hurls the Spear to WW. She rams the spear through her own belly and into Thor's heart. Cap falls to his apparent death in the icy seas. Fifty years later, Captain America is found frozen in an iceberg and thawed out. He travels to Paradise Island to tell The Amazons the tale of Diana's heroic death. But he finds her alive and now the Virgin Queen of the Amazons, who has spent the last fifty years in mourning for the greatest warrior she had ever known. They wed, and as King of the Amazons, Captain America builds a fighting force of extraordinary magnitude. Written by Garth Ennis. Pencils by John McCrea. Inks by Russ Heath.
