Someone suggested a keen idea. DC and Marvel both have remarkable story events. Take any one or two classica that you like (e.g., "Born Again", "Hard Driving Heroes", etc.) and switch it to characters from another company.
You surely don't have to restrict it to just DC or Marvel (e.g., Jimmy Olsen in the "normalman" storyline) but please limit it to two sagas at most. Also, try to keep it in the spirit of the original. That is to say, if you pick the Cap-Wolf story, don't say you're using the Doom Patrol instead. Try to keep it one hero to one hero, one team to one team, etc. You know what I mean. Don't be a prat. :)
Incidentally, I think we should henceforth refer to this as the Robbie Parry rules; he always states them so clearly and concisely.
I would like to see the Avengers-Defenders war, but with the satellite era Justice League against the New Teen Titans. Actually, just the chapter of Robin vs. Batman is kind of exciting to me.
And to go to a preposterous extreme on the other side... I'd be really interested in the Doom Patrol handling the Dark Negative Man saga. The Brain finds a way to overload Negative Man's powers, with the intent that one day, Larry Trainor will release his energy form... and it will cause an explosion, killing the rest of the Doom Patrol. To cover up this plan, he creates a deception by having Madame Rouge, treated to resist radioactivity, seduce Larry in disguise. Hilarity ensues.
Oh, just one more because A) it's my topic, and B) it's fully described in four words. "Bat-demon in a bottle."
What sagas (even failures) would you like to see handled by the other company?
