ЁЯдп Comics Byte Saw This Coming: Crossover Omnibus Hinted It All
This isnтАЩt completely out of the blue. Last year, Marvel and DC quietly dropped the Marvel/DC Crossover Omnibus, a collectorтАЩs edition compiling their classic (and long out-of-print) collab comics like Superman vs Spider-Man, Batman vs Hulk, and more.
Read: DC Versus Marvel Omnibus: The Ultimate Superhero Showdown Returns!
That surprise omnibus was more than a nostalgia trip, it was a clear sign that something bigger was brewing. Now, the dream is real.
ЁЯза The Ultimate Clash of Styles: Merc with a Mouth vs The World’s Greatest Detective
What makes this crossover so thrilling? The characters themselves:
- ЁЯза Batman: Dark, brooding, methodical. GothamтАЩs silent protector and master tactician.
- ЁЯШЬ Deadpool: Loud, unhinged, fourth-wall-breaking chaos machine with a sword and a one-liner always ready.
One is silent. The other never shuts up.
One works in the shadows. The other makes a scene.
Watching them clash (or possibly team up?) is bound to be one of the most entertaining contrasts ever inked on a comic page.
MarvelтАЩs Dan Buckley said it best:
Deadpool hanging out with Batman… It would be a little bit uber violent and a lot of fun.тАЭ
ЁЯФО Official Plot Tease
According to early teasers, Deadpool is hired for a mysterious job in Gotham City. As always, things spiral out of control, landing him squarely in the crosshairs of Batman. What starts as a hit job could spiral into multiversal madness.
And letтАЩs not forget the тАЬbackup adventuresтАЭ teased by both companies featuring exciting Marvel and DC character match-ups weтАЩve never seen before. Speculation is already swirling: Flash vs Quicksilver? Moon Knight and Constantine? AnythingтАЩs possible.
