For the first time in decades, worlds will collide in the much-anticipated Marvel/DC: Deadpool/Batman one-shot available in comic shops on September 17th. Based on the promotional push coupled with the number of variant covers, it’s safe to assume the sales numbers for this comic will be bananas. Speaking of variant covers, today Marvel unveiled final three covers from artists J. Scott Campbell, Pepe Larraz, and Esad Ribić.
As fans can see, “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!”
Besides the main crossover between the Merc with a Mouth and the Caped Crusader in the written by Zeb Wells and drawn by Greg Capullo, the DEADPOOL/BATMAN one-shot will feature backup stories including 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.
As Wells told IGN in a recent interview,“Deadpool shows up when Gotham City is in imminent danger. The worst possible time. Batman doesn’t have a lot of patience for Deadpool. And Wade’s take on Batman is…complicated. In the most Deadpool way possible.”
Superstar artist Greg Capullo added. “For me, it’s sort of working with the bookends of my career. 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.”
More excitingly, the first interior art from the one-shot has been unveiled. Check pages from the main Deadpool/Batman crossover by Capullo as well as Daredevil/Green Arrow by Kubert and Jeff the Land Shark/Krypto by Gurihiru.
