Cloak and Dagger

This was always one of my favorite creations from Marvel in the 80s. Both were runaways who were injected with a new form of street drug that instead of killing them gave them mutant like powers.

Ty was able to envelop others in a black hole which he could also teleport through and Tandy had light powers able to be used for attack or defence. Her light daggers could also cure the need for drugs in addicts.

Both had an intense need for each other that for Ty bordered on the physiological. He needed her light to keep his darkness from overwhelming him.

Light and Dark - it was a simple concept but Marvel got alot of use out of it then let them go away so (unlike the Punisher and Wolverine) they didn't die from overexposure, I would like to think.

Only recently they have returned and I look forward to how they re-integrate into the Marvel Universe. The movie would also make for a fine motion picture in the vein of 'Kick-Ass' and could carry a strong anti-drug message if the filmmakers chose to take that route.
