This is, perhaps, the best idea yet. Skeletons? Awesome. Dragons? Awesome. COMBINED? Oh my god you have done something amazing. I’d read it.

Plus, you’d be known for coming up with that dragon that people will be airbrushing on their vans for decades to come.

This would be, like, totally awesome.

You could advertise it as “Doctor Strange’s life is about to get boned!”

The ONLY thing that matters here is:

Does he wear purple shorts?

I so want to see this, so Dr. Strange can ask the question: “Fin Fang Foom, if he is your ultimate ancestor, then who was this father of his that he killed?”

Maybe giant purple bandages…

His roar is a flood, his mouth is death and his breath is fire!

If this is wrong, than – wait, the two comments above me said that already.

So this is very right.

Oddly enough, this is Reason #1 “Why Chris Sims Should Write Doctor Strange”

Chris Sims #1 reason to write the Doc is “Dr. Strange kicks someone’s face!”

No, the face kicking is on Sim’s universal list.

This is the first one on the Strange specific list.

And he should be also fought by the team of Rex the Wonder Dog and Viking Commando. Because an ax in the face will distract most magic-people.

I’d be down for this idea, if only to see what the hell Fin Fang Foom’s potato head looks like without any skin.

His breath is hatred! His soul is poison! His eyes stare into one billion souls at once, and find every last one wanting!

But… he’s dead. Undead. He doesn’t have any of those: not breath, nor soul, nor eyes.

I will not disagree that skeletal dragons that fire magic zappy bolts is not made of cheese-covered, bacon-wrapped awesome.

However, Fin Fang Foom is a fin fang fucking horrible name and as such, unfortunately, so is Fin Fang Fear.

Sad to say, there was a sorta-version of this during “The Amalgam Age of Comics”: Fin Fang Flame, an amalgamation of Fin Fang Foom and Brimstone, summoned so as to destroy and devour all mutated variations of humanity (for some reason) and full of weird snark.

@ Magic Love Hose

Fin Fang FUCK, YEAH!

Lurker: Fin Fang Foom is a joke name. It does not serve any argument to claim Dormammu is a joke by his lack of deeds and then claim “Fin Fang Foom” is not a joke when his name inspires images of magic smoke.

Fin Fang Fear is slightly better, but Fin Fang Foom sounds like the name you’d give to a genie on Nickelodeon.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with Dr. Strange fighting a dragon, undead or not. This could be done badly, but if you think the concept itself is too goofy to be used, then I propose that you do not have enough joy in your life or your interest of comic books.

I don’t know if anyone has a pet dragon, but Marvel is actually accepting animal photos for inclusion in the Pet Avengers books:

The problem is, Fin Fang Fear just doesn’t roll off the tongue like Fin Fang Foom does. And the name Fin Fang Foom has no purpose except to roll off the tongue. I mean, if you get up in a crowded subway car and yell out, “FIN FANG FOOM! HE HAS NO GENITALS TO SPEAK OFF!”, then people will cheer and women will offer you sexual favors. But if you yell out, “FIN FANG FEAR! HIS BREATH IS THE FIRE OF PERDITION!”, then people will laugh at you and then hit you and take your wallet.

“My family name is Fin, my gens is Fang, and my personal name is Foom, and there is a slight flaw in my underpants.”–if Barry Hughart wrote Marvel Comics.

Why is there suddenly an English word popping up in Fin Fang Fear’s name?

pronoiac: I hope you’re right. Ellis supposedly referred to it as the only thing which is in continuity. If Machine Man killing Fin Fang Foom is wrong, I don’t want to be right.

Because he’s a gigantic goddamn dragon zombie made of evil and fire?

Kyle: Oh wow. I’m torn between the potential joy of Nextwave become canon & watching it merrily rolling & tearing up the landscape, & the fear of a gritty & humorless version.

The problem with using the Nextwave version of Fin Fang Foom is that the Roger Langridge version (from Fin Fang Four) is so much better (miniaturized, prosecuted, plea-bargained, now on a work-release program as a a waiter in a Chinese restaurant) is such a better character.

(…)

Oh! Apparently the hardcover OHOTMU confirms that the Nextwave version was a BEYOND corporation clone of the Langridge version (made pre-miniaturization)! So I guess they’re both available!

“FIN FANG FEAR! The ultimate ancestor of Fin Fang Foom! The First Giant Monster To Stride ‘Pon The Earth! Each of his knucklebones is the size of a Buick! His rearmost left canine fang could be turned into a house, assuming you dislodged it from him, hollowed it out and didn’t mind walls made of dragon-enamel! One Avada Kedavra will bring it down. ” –Quirrel, HPatMoR edition
