Both comics will deliver explosive sagas starring Marvel’s Merc with a Mouth and DC’s Caped Crusader along with backup stories that showcase additional team-ups and showdowns between legendary characters from both universes.
Fans can see even more unbelievable matchups on DEADPOOL/BATMAN’s variant covers. While Ribić’s cover spotlights the main event, Campbell and Larraz’s covers tease battles for two of the fiercest X-Men, pitting Psylocke against vigilante Huntress and Rogue against iconic Batman supervillain Poison Ivy!
DEADPOOL/BATMAN will be written by Zeb Wells and drawn by Greg Capullo. The backup stories include DAREDEVIL and GREEN ARROW by Kevin Smith and Adam Kubert, JEFF THE LAND SHARK and Krypto by Kelly Thompson and Gurihiru, CAPTAIN AMERICA and WONDER WOMAN by Chip Zdarsky and Terry Dodson, ROCKET RACCOON and GREEN LANTERN by Al Ewing and Dike Ruan, and WOLVERINE (Old Man Logan) and BATMAN (The Dark Knight Returns) by Frank Miller.
“Deadpool shows up when Gotham City is in imminent danger. The worst possible time,” Wells told IGN in a recent interview. “Batman doesn’t have a lot of patience for Deadpool. And Wade’s take on Batman is…complicated. In the most Deadpool way possible.”
“For me, it’s sort of working with the bookends of my career,” Capullo added. “I drew Deadpool when I was on X-Force years ago and, of course, I just did a long run on Batman. That’s pretty amazing to me.”
