If you could swap a DC hero over to Marvel or a Marvel hero over to DC which would you choose?
I believe I would have had DC`s Captain Marvel move over to Marvel, this would have allowed the character to star in a magazine under his own name and given Marvel Comics their own Superman like character.

Maybe a non-obvious choice would be Blue Beetle and Ghost Rider.

Batman to Marvel, since he's street level and suffered a tragedy that propelled him to his super-heroics.
Galactus and Silver Surfer together to DC (Since they're both so cosmic, and you can't really have one of them without the other)

Captain Marvel doesn't really fit into the Marvel Universe outside of the name, does he? Blue Beetle's a good one, though. I'd send Thor to DC and the Question to Marvel.

I wonder how Captain Marvel would have fared at Marvel? I'm not sure he's well suited to the Marvel universe, but he's not a great fit at DC either -- at least not when he's crammed in with all of the other characters. He's largely redundant with Superman and Wonder Woman around.

I think that Fawcett's Captain Marvel could have fit into the Marvel universe had he been introduced there in the 60's or early 70's.

Green Lantern would do well in a Marvel Universe. I think Batman would fit in the Marvel New York just fine. Just think of all the fun stories with Marvel-Two-In-One starring Batman and....the rest of the Marvel Universe. What brave and bold stories those would be!
Forgot the Marvels to send over. I think the Fantastic Four would be great and so would Thor or Spider-Man too. But, I think the best would be Captain America.

Upon further thought I would guess that had he showed up at Marvel after his long hiatus after Fawcett, Stan & Jack might have put a different spin on Captain Marvel by maybe starting with a grown up Billy Batson who had given up the Captain Marvel persona after his last Fawcett issue and coming out of retirement with the dawn of a new heroic age. Just a guess of course, but I am sure that Stan would have heaped a little personal tragedy onto his shoulders to make him fit the Marvel mold, perhaps the death of the other members of the Marvel family as an obstacle for the adult Billy to overcome and as a stumbling block in resuming his role as a Super-Hero.

Thor is pretty much Marvel's Superman. Or was until the creation of Sentry (ugh).

Before I Knew of Mar-Vell I always pictured Captain Marvel teaming with the Avengers fighting Thanos.

I'd swap JK4W with the Eternals.
