Fuzzy Introduces Captain Marvel to the Schwartz With Predictable Results
Captain Marvel meets the Schwartz in this exciting (?) conclusion. Fuzzy’s Fractured Fairy Tales explores new pop culture territory in today’s episode.
ANNOUNCER – It’s time to listen to one of our favorite magical stories. Well, sort of. It’s Fuzzy’s Fractured fairy Tales on the WDHA Morning jolt.
Previously on Fuzzy’s Fractured Fairy Tales – Damn it! Moonstone stole my cat. War Machine, I need help tracking that interstellar Floozie. I tracked her Winnebago on the planet Vega. Happy to help.
FUZZY – And now, the conclusion of Captain Marvel and the Missing Flerken. As Captain Marvel flew to planet Vega, she spotted the Winnebago on the surface. Determined to save her cat, aka Flerken from Moonstone, she blasted her way through the door.
CAPTAIN MARRVEL – Alright, Moonstone, hand over my f&#king flerken or I’ll…. Wait a minute. You’re not Moonstone. You’re a spaceball?
BARF – Spaceballs? There goes the planet. Hello, I’m Barf. Thanks for blasting the door. My wife wanted me to paint it. Now it’s one less thing to worry about.
CAPTAIN MARVEL – Your wife? What happened to your Lone Stank friend?
BARF – Oh, Lone Star, you mean? He died some time ago. He ate the special of the day at Galaxy Grill Diner. Remember? The alien came out of the other guy? The same thing happened to Lone Star. Just stick to the soup, I say.
Oh, no, not again.
BARF – Today I’m teaching my wife the Way of the Schwartz. If she doesn’t flatten my feet with a huge yogurt statue like Lone Star did the Schwartz will be with her always.
Yes, the Schwartz.
BARF – Come out, honey, and meet my new friend who took care of the door for me.
FUZZY – As Barf’s wife came from the back of the Winnebago Captain Marvel’s cat popped her head out from behind a chair. Captain’s eyes blazed with fire. She quickly turned and blasted the edge of the doorway where Moonstone stood.
MOONSTONE – Damn it, Marvel. What are you doing here? And why are you always so angry?
CAPTAIN MARVEL – You took Chewie away from me and I’m taking her back.
MOONSTONE – By all means, take your flerken cat. She’s a menace to society. She ate all the food, including the last can of liquid Schwartz. We’re stranded here. And by the way, could you give us a ride to the Galaxy Diner? I’m starving.
CAPTAIN MARVEL – Fine. I highly recommend the special of the day. I hear it’s to die for.
FUZZY – That’s pretty smart. Why engage in an epic battle scene if you could take your arch nemesis out for a deadly lunch instead?
Actors Who Appeared in Both DC and Marvel Movies
With so many movies being based on the comics from DC and Marvel, these studios are always in need of actors to star in their respective films. The popularity of these brands has routinely allowed studios to attract major names but has also helped to turn lesser-known actors into huge stars. Because DC and Marvel movies have such a pull, actors seem willing to take any role, no matter how big or small — with some double-dipping into multiple projects. Below is a list of the many actors that have starred in both Marvel and DC movies and TV shows:
