Traitor!
I'm trying to limit the guest list to people who spoke English so that I could, you know, talk to them. So far the only "for sure" guests are William S. Burroughs and Bob Haney.
See, I wrote my list assuming that there was some universal translator to go along with the time machine that snatched everyone up. That's just silly.  |

But I'll bend the rules for you. |

Also , no time machines, just beyonder power. Universal translators optional. Oh, rats! I worked out a whole storyline for a "Rip Hunter, Time Master" story!
Some dude approaches Rip with a list of people he wants to have dinner with. Rip gathers the team - Ace, Bonnie and Chip - and they travel back in time to pick up Cleopatra, Joan of Arc, Horacio Quiroga, Lao Tzu and Annette Kellerman. Hilarity ensues as Rip and the gang fight Romans, mean English jurists, a boa constrictor, Kung Fu masters and the swimsuit police. Ace falls in love with one of Cleopatra's attendants, Bonnie is almost married off to the Dauphin, Chip is eaten by army ants and Rip spends a night in the hoosegow on public indecency charges.
Finally they come back to the present and Cleopatra, Joan, Horacio, Lao Tzu and Annette enjoy a nice dinner at the Olive Garden, where they are treated like family.
All concerns about a "universal translator" are irrelevant because it is a Rip Hunter story.
Note: I wrote this from memory and I've only read two Rip Hunter stories and it's been a while. So please forgive any inconsistencies if compared to a real Rip Hunter story. But I'm pretty sure "Rip Hunter, Time Master" is a real thing. I couldn't have dreamed that.

William Desmond Taylor
Judge Joseph Crater
Jimmy Hoffa
Frederick Valentich
Maura Murray
With the possible exceptions of Valentich and Murray, they'll need to be conjured from the great beyond. I have many questions. |

You didn't do too badly, Hoos. It's Jeff and Corky, not Ace and Chip, and Hunter's chrononauts carry "speech converters" (i.e. universal translators; cf. Rip Hunter #8) but otherwise your scenario isn't that much different than the story that gave us this epic clash: Attachment Deletedfeaturing Lucrezia Borgia, Helen of Troy, Cleopatra and Scheherezade. Cei-U! I summon the catfight for the ages! |
