Magnus vs. Predator 2?

Post by Ryan »

Now that they're both at Dark Horse, this should be coming right? 8-)

Hopefully they could get Lee Weeks to draw it...

Other cool crossovers?

Magnus/Aliens? meh
Magnus/Tarzan? :thumb:
Magnus/Nexus 2? would be great

any others? I'm drawing a blank

oh yeah, those would rock. I would love to see them by Walt Simonson.

also thought of a few other possibilities,

Magnus vs. Conan
Turok vs. Conan
Turok vs. Tarzan
Magnus vs. Grendel-Prime
Dr. Solar vs. Hellboy
Turok vs. Solomon Kane

Any of those could be fun now that they're all in the Dark Horse stable, but I'll just be happy if the Gold Key line succeeds and they cross over with each other

Magnus vs C-3PO

I penciled this one (on coquille board), and Kevin inked it and added the tones.

The "Magnus" comics, as drawn by the incredible Russ Manning, were a big influence on me -- I especially loved the way he drew the robots. You can see this influence in the design of the Fugitoid.

Good question, but I would say not without involving VEI or getting their permission.

It would depend on how the rights were assigned. I don't remember, did Magnus Vs. Predator use any Valiant owned characters?
