Second Printing Dream Teams

There is no doubt that amongst the flotsam and jetsam there's a lot of really good things being done in comics.

If we ruled the comics world, I'm sure there'd be comics of characters currently in limbo that we'd love to see come back with certain creators attached.

That said, we all have favorite characters and creators. So, my question to you is this...

"What character or team, currently without their own series, would you bring back and with what dream team of creators?"

To get the ball rolling, I'll start:

HAWKMAN, written by Jason Aaron and drawn by Doug Mahnke

Your turn...

  7. heh..Power Pack by Howard Chaykin. I don't know if I could stand to see those kids wearing garter belts, stiletto heels and wearing bright red lipstick with a cigarette hanging out of the side of their mouth...

  8. Swamp Thing, by Alan Moore, John Totleben and Alfredo Alcala. Hey, we're supposed to dream here, so I'm shooting for a reunion.

    Wait, should I have had Moore and Sprouse finishing Supreme instead?

  10. Wow, Ultimates by Rucka and Lark would be amazing.

    I was also thinking Geoff Johns doing Captain America. We can just keep Mike Perkins around.

  12. Someday... someday... I want to see Brian K. Vaughan really take a bonafide swing at writing the goddamn Batman... just to see what might have been... with an artist with a slightly more cartoon-ish sensibility like Scott McDaniel or Rafael Albuquerque....

    My other dream team is Jeph Loeb bagging groceries at my local Giant instead of writing comics.

  19. Big Numbers, by Alan Moore and Bill Sienkiewicz.

    And while I'm dreaming, I'd like a pony.

  20. That Lady Cop thing could actually happen; Buscema lives in Fairfax and shops at the Plaza Arts near the Vienna Metro.

    I am much like Layla Miller.

  21. Actually, I was thinking more a Bob McLoed or Ron Frenz but that could work. :)

    ReplyDelete
  22. Well, that would be The Question written by Dennis O'Neill and Art by the late great Michael Turner, but since I can't have him I'll take art by Ryan Otley (Invincible)
