There’s been a great collaboration between the two American superhero comics powerhouses since March 1976 and Superman vs.\u00a0 the Amazing Spider-Man<\/em>. Every few years something would crop up, and these stories are fun because they are never “canon” for either comics universe.<\/p>\n The latest of these are the two issues Deadpool Batman<\/em> and Batman Deadpool<\/em>.\u00a0 There are no multi-part stories and it’s not just the title characters but about fourteen stories of varying lengths featuring team-ups like Captain America and Wonder Woman, etc. Even a new Amalgam character called Logo (Lobo and Wolverine ‘Logan’)!<\/p>\n I ventured into my local comics shop to pick these up as I had read they weren’t going to be issued in digital format (turns out that was wrong). There were even two digital-only books (Flash\/Fantastic Four<\/em> and Thor\/Shazam!<\/em>).\u00a0 The latter is notable because in the book the Fawcett\/D.C. hero is actually called Captain Marvel, which hasn’t been done since the 80s when D.C. lost the trademark lawsuit to Marvel!\u00a0 Here’s hoping that this is one thing that carries over into D.C. canon so they can stop calling him just “the Captain,” which makes no sense at all.<\/p>\n These books were a nice way to start off my holiday season.\u00a0 I chose the cover variant pictured because I recognized Ryan Sook’s homage to the classic Crisis on Infinite Earths<\/em> #7 cover by George Perez.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" There’s been a great collaboration between the two American superhero comics powerhouses since March 1976 and Superman vs.\u00a0 the Amazing Spider-Man.
