Marvel and DC’s next comic crossover revealed: Deadpool and Batman — See a first look (exclusive)
Back in February, at a ComicsPro panel held in Glendale, Calif., the editors in chief of Marvel and DC revealed they were quietly assembling something they hadn’t pulled off in more than two decades: a crossover event.
The time to reveal the next crossover is finally here…Deadpool, meet Batman.
EW can exclusively reveal that Marvel’s Merc with a Mouth and DC’s Dark Knight will collide this year, crossing swords and batarangs across a new publishing event. On the Marvel side, Zeb Wells, the Spider-Man comics scribe who recently worked on the big-screen spectacular Deadpool & Wolverine, pens a Deadpool/Batman one-shot with art and cover design by veteran artist Greg Capullo, who most recently worked on Wolverine: Revenge.
DC brings together comparable creative heavyweights to tackle their respective one-shot. Batman/Deadpool, launching later this November, hails from writer Grant Morrison, whose comics (including All-Star Superman and Batman and Son) now serve as inspiration for the James Gunn and Peter Safran-led DC movie-verse, and artist Dan Mora, who, similar to Capullo, has an immense list of credits to his name. (Details on DC’s story and the accompanying “backup adventures” will be announced at a later date.)
Man DC got Morrison to write their slop book, good for them honestly
MFW the Marvel-DC crossover is not a one-shot where the Joker kills Sabra
Of course it’s going to be Batman-focused, WB doesn’t have any other profitable IP right now
I do hope that Superman movie is good
I actually really like Superman
So when he was in the snow and he started whistling I thought “Oh, the Fortress of Solitude is gonna, like, assemble itself around him and it’s gonna be a really cool CG shot.”
And then Krypto showed up and I soyfaced because that’s unironically 1000x cooler than the Fortress of Solitude
Darn tootin’, I did the same
i’ve been enjoying the Absolute Superman comic but I also stopped reading it halfway through
Once they did dark nights metal I thought lmfao they are doing the most turning everyone into batman they must want that for their movies too at this point
I was there!
guess they worked out some legal stuff because they finally reprinted most of those crossovers and the amalgam stuff recently in two books
Oh no! They can’t keep getting away with it!
Well isnt it all disney now?
I’m at the Pizza Hut
I’m at the Taco Bell
I’m at the combination Pizza Hut and Taco Bell
Oh boy
More Deadpool
Yay
