The two universes have their own place and IMO should be separate.
I would LOVE to see CGW back in print with new stories... self contained new stories.

I vote "nay," Shooter said the Gold Key titles take place in the real world and that definately wouldn't be CGW. The reaction of Dr. Solar and everyone else to superpowers in Dr. Solar would 100% not make any sense if their were superheroes zipping around various cities on modern day Earth. You might could have them pop of Pickerel's head or something but I'm not sure how fans of the line would feel about that. They could do some ambigious "maybe it counts maybe not" crossover miniseries (like Hellboy/Ghost, Madman/Nexus, etc) or something like that, but on a regular basis I doubt will CGW intergrated into the tiles. I second the notion of Defiant/Broadway being put in there, they could fit.

Then again CGW has a couple of dangling plot threads as it is concerning the Vortex as well.
1) No Nexus vs Vortex
2) Vortex leaves Earth, but later shows back up as if nothing ever happened.
3) Division 13 still hiding in that abandoned gas station?
4) Hero Zero and his mystery gems given to him by the Vortex.
5) When will the swarm come?
6) King Tyger - Is he from a monastary or is he from another world/dimension? Hints has been given to both being - YES!
Then there are other chads hanging in the CGW universe as well that have never seen the light of day.
# 2. See # 1, but also there were a couple short stories in DHP that helped explain this, as well as an appearnce in Ghost, volume 2.
# 3. Nope. They joined Grace and were seen with her at the end of Agents of Law.
# 4. Agents of Law/Revelations sort of explained that, but not enough for my satisfaction.
# 5. About the same time as Godot.
# 6. The King Tiger/Motorhead miniseries and several appearances in Ghost hinted that Tiger is a hybrid and definitely connected to the Vortex. He did spend time at a monastary, yes.

I liked how Hero Zero crossed over with Godzilla in that old one shot. Would be cool to see Mighty Samson vs. Godzilla but Dark Horse let the Godzilla rights go to IDW.
Charles Barkley versus Godzilla.
That had a great cover by Dave Dorman.

I had to write a research paper on the Theatre of the Absurd back in my high school daze. Waiting for Godot was of course the most notable. For such a relatively obscure work of surreal literature I'm impressed at how many board members know of it. Smart group of guys on here. Then again, I would expect no less from true old school Valiant fans.
