Dream Comic Mergers

Post by SID »

What Mergers would you have liked to seen happen?

For starters, the following:

2000AD and Warrior - far better surely than letting Warrior fade (yup, I know it was a different company but let's pretend Fleetway could have bought it).

The Dandy and Cracker - My two favourite DCT humour comics and, to me, a far better merger than the one that did happen with the Beezer.

Buster and Cheeky - I wonder how the two of them would have got on? Could have been like Whizzer and Chips if they did not already exist.

2000AD and Eagle - again, a better way of ending Eagle rather than just stopping it? At least a few of the characters (Doomlord with a little revamping for one).
Reading comics since 1970. My Current Regulars are: 2000 AD (1977-), Judge Dredd Megazine (1990-), Spaceship Away (2003-), Commando (2013-), Monster Fun (2022-), Deadpool and Wolverine (2023-), Quantum (2023-).

The Champion and Knockout seems apt.

I think Beano and Plug would have been a good merger.

If we're allowed to talk about nightmare mergers, then Beano and Dandy!

Sadly, the way things are going, I wouldn't be surprised to see that "nightmare" come true.
