What if these Marvel and DC comic book characters switched universes?
By Mark Lynch
The Flash
No matter which Flash you’re talking about, the Scarlet Speedster would fit right in with the Marvel Universe. However, the one who probably would the most is Barry Allen.
The heroes and villains in the Marvel comic book universe love to say that the time-stream shouldn’t be tampered with. Yet, they do it anyway. Ironically, Barry Allen’s time-traveling shenanigans are well-documented. A debate could be made on what’s worse between the Age of Apocalypse and Flashpoint. One ends in death (Flashpoint), the other is enslavement.
Barry Allen would be welcomed on the Avengers. Quicksilver may get jealous, because The Flash is the superior speedster. Plus, he’s a much better and more humble teammate.
Harley Quinn
Harley Quinn isn’t exactly a hero, nor is she really a villain. She’d fit right in with the characters of the Marvel Comics universe. She’s just wacky enough to go on adventures with Deadpool and brave enough to venture to Monster Metropolis without being scared of their appearance. She’s also heroic enough to be a member of one of the teams of street heroes with Moon Knight.
That said, The Punisher may try and kill Harley for being, well, herself. But to be honest, we’re not sure Punisher wants that fight. She’s more skilled than people give her credit for. I could see Frank Castle getting smacked by her mallet more than a few times.
