It still feels surreal to say that Marvel and DC are crossing over again. After a near-century of being seen as the titans of the superhero world, and occasionally poking fun at each other in the process, the two are partnering on a string of new comics.
The first of these new collaborations is a pair of one-shot issues teaming up their various characters, led by a meeting between Marvel’s Deadpool and DC’s Batman. Marvel’s side of the equation, Deadpool/Batman #1, arrived in stores earlier this fall, and has now been joined by DC’s Batman/Deadpool #1 this week. And that side of the story brought back a DC character (who kind of defies explanation) in a pretty perfect way.
