Great Comics that Never Happened: League of Extraordinary Gentlemen 1988
"When war-hero-turned-handyman Kesuke Miyagi is found drained of blood, it becomes clear that the occult gang known as the Lost Boys are targeting the only individuals that can stop them from complete domination of America. It's the perfect case for the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen--except that their government contact, Oscar Goldman, disbanded the team in 1979 after they defeated Mr. Han's army of the living dead.
Now, disgraced scientist Emmet Brown has to put together a new team to combat the growing threat of the Lost Boys and their leader, a newly resurrected vampire kingpin Tony Montana: Transportation specialist Jack Burton, ex-commando B.A. Baracus, tech wizard Angus MacGyver and the mysteriously powerful femme fatale known only as 'Lisa.' But will Brown be able to stop the Lost Boys before time runs out?"
Octo: Just found this yesterday at Comics Alliance, which I also just found yesterday. See the rest of the Great Comics that Never Happened here.
This one's by far my favorite. Check the pictures on the wall, there's one for Serpico and Rocky Balboa, because of course they're different people [edit: Oops! Serpico was played by Pacino, not Stallone]. And the Farrah pic is captioned "Jill Monroe." Fiction, yay!

at the risk of looking like i'm missing another joke...
rocky balboa and serpico *are* different people.
a) rocky is a boxer; serpico is a cop
b) rocky is sylvester stallone; serpico is al pacino
Oh fuck! Ha ha ha! I totally screwed up. I've never actually seen Serpico.
However, I am saved by the fact that the story blurb features Tony Montana.
Serpico is a good flick
