Red Right Hand: FIGHT

FIGHT

Tell me there isn't a market for this.

Call it Versus or something.

Get a big company with a healthy stable of super-characters like DC or Marvel or...DC or Marvel. Take whichever writer and/or artist is available that month and have 'em draw a couple of character names out of a really big hat. Wonder Woman and Bizarro. She-Hulk and Magneto. Batman and Ambush Bug. Whatever. Take which ever two names are drawn and create a solid sixteen pages (we'll go with the Warren Ellis Fell format, just 'cuz I dig it) and do nothing but wall-to-wall fight. No story. No build up to the fight, no reason why they're fighting, nothing. Just fight. Sometimes there's a decisive victory, sometimes there's a humiliating retreat. Sometimes there's a winner, but it's arguable who it may have been. Never, though, a draw. Nothing but a showcase for battle tactics and clever quips. No pesky continuity. Just BAM POW CRASH. Slap a price tag of 2 bucks (cheap) on it and let it be a guilty pleasure, you know. Sometimes, let us aspire to reach lower. For the people.

Ambush Bug.



You fuckin' know it.

And the setting for the fight issues should be "Atrocity Island" and all losers get put into the Shakey Box.

On a completely unrelated note: WHY must we wait until freaking January for Planetary? Is it because it rhymes?

I'm thinking Wonder Woman and She-Hulk, in the mud. Three rounds.

Love it. I'm thinking Nick Fury and Superman, in the mud. Jimmy Olsen snapping photos.
