Universal Monsters
What would it be like if the VALIANT characters encountered the literary versions of the Universal monsters that are in the public domain?
Bloodshot vs Frankenstein's monster is a no-brainer.
Shadowman vs Dracula would evoke the VH 1 version's encounter with Lydia the Spider-Alien.
What other combinations come to mind?

Re: Universal Monsters
I could totally see the VEI versions of Archer & Armstrong doing an entire series with them meeting the different Universal monsters in the style of the old Abbott and Costello comedies.

Re: Universal Monsters
There's the version of such clashes in which the Universal monsters are fictional and the one in which they are real.
In the former, Armstrong knew Stoker, Shelley, etc, and inserted himself into the origins of their fictional creations. He'd regale Archer with stories about how he was there at Byron's castle the night Shelley came up with Frankenstein.
That would be the more grounded VH-1 version. Since the VEI version of these characters are more comedic, there'd be more fuel to the story in the monsters being real.
