DC and Marvel Are Smashing Together Batman and Deadpool

by admin May 27, 2025


It will probably never happen on the big screen but in the comic book shops, Marvel and DC are ready to team up once again. The two biggest comic book companies just announced that two of their most popular characters, Batman and Deadpool, are going to show down across splash pages later this year.

Entertainment Weekly broke the news of the crossover, which will mainly consist of two separate one-shot comics. On the Marvel side, Zeb Wells (Deadpool and Wolverine) is writing Deadpool/Batman with art and cover by Greg Capullo (Wolverine: Revenge) which will be out September 17. Over at DC, Grant Morrison (All Star Superman) is writing Batman/Deadpool with art by Dan Mora (Batman/Superman), which will be out in November. The Marvel comic will tell a story about Wade Wilson being hired to do a job in Gotham City, which doesn’t sit well with Batman. DC wouldn’t say what its story would be about, but both revealed in addition to these one shots, there will be some “backup adventures” with other “exciting Marvel and DC character match-ups.” All of that, however, is being kept under wraps, as is another set of crossovers coming in 2026.

“I don’t do many comics these days but there was no way I could turn down the chance to work with Dan Mora again, one of my all-time favorite artistic collaborators—and definitely no way I could turn down Batman and Deadpool!” Grant Morrison said in a statement to EW. “Expect 4th wall-busting mayhem, owls, blood, blades, and at least one giant typewriter!”

“After writing Amazing Spider-Man for 60 issues, I told Marvel I needed a break,” Wells said. “Marvel told me I could do that or I could write a comic starring Deadpool and Batman with the best Batman artist of our generation. I no longer needed a break. In Batman we’ve found someone who has even less time for Deadpool’s antics than Wolverine, but a city-wide threat from the Joker makes strange bedfellows (literally, if Deadpool had his way). It’s been a blast letting Deadpool loose in Gotham City and watching what happens.”

For those wondering, this is not the first time Marvel and DC have teamed up for something like this, it’s just been over 20 years Previous crossovers and seen Spider-Man and Superman together, as well as the Justice League and Avengers. Jim Lee, the iconic artist turned CCO and Publisher at DC, explained why it’s taken so long to do it again.

“It happens kind of once every generation of readers,” Lee said. I’ll leave you to draw your own conclusions as to why. The timing has to be right in that you don’t want to do these too often. You want them to feel special. It is sort of finding that right moment for both companies to come together because it is complex. There’s a lot more coordination, collaboration, approvals that have to be done. And, obviously, from the business side, you’re sharing revenue, but it’s going to be a big deal. So you want the story, creatively, to warrant the hype of it all.”

Here are the two covers of the comics and you can read more over at EW. Are you excited to check these out? Do you think this could ever happen on the big screen?
