As revealed by Entertainment Weekly,<\/em> the first issue of Deadpool\/Batman<\/em> is being published by Marvel and will be released on September 17. This issue is being written by Spider-Man<\/em> writer Zeb Wells while Greg Capullo handles the art and cover. Issue 2, Batman\/Deadpool<\/em>, is being written by critically acclaimed comics writer Grant Morrison with art by Dan Mora. The second issue of this special crossover will land in November and be published by DC.<\/p>\n

According to EW<\/em><\/a><\/span>, both issues will feature some extra stories and more DC\/Marvel crossovers, but those are being left a secret for now. The outlet also confirmed that DC and Marvel plan on doing another one-shot crossover in 2026. <\/p>\n

\u201cA lot of things have to align,\u201d Dan Buckley, the president of Marvel Entertainment, told EW. \u201cMostly, we plan our editorial schedule pretty far out. DC does their schedule pretty far out. You want to have the right talent involved because with this type of thing, you want to elevate it as much as you can to get people excited.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt happens kind of once every generation of readers. I\u2019ll leave you to draw your own conclusions as to why. The timing has to be right in that you don\u2019t 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\u2019s a lot more coordination, collaboration, approvals that have to be done. And, obviously, from the business side, you\u2019re sharing revenue, but it\u2019s going to be a big deal. So you want the story, creatively, to warrant the hype of it all.\u201d<\/p>\n

Wells told the outlet that after writing 60 issues of Spider-Man <\/em>he wanted a break, but Marvel offered him this chance to work on a Batman crossover and he decided that he \u201cno longer needed a break\u201d and hopped on board the project. <\/p>\n

\u201cIn Batman, we\u2019ve found someone who has even less time for Deadpool\u2019s antics than Wolverine, but a city-wide threat from the Joker makes strange bedfellows (literally, if Deadpool had his way),\u201d said Wells. \u201cIt\u2019s been a blast letting Deadpool loose in Gotham City and watching what happens.\u201d <\/p>\n

Buckey added that the main reason DC and Marvel chose Batman and Deadpool for a crossover was that it was \u201ca fun combo.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was nothing more complicated than that,\u201d said Buckley. \u201cLike, Deadpool hanging out with Batman. There\u2019s a lot of levity to be had in there, a lot of fun. And it would also be a little bit uber violent at the same time…. Our big thing is we want to do something that is a lot of fun, showcase comics, generate excitement, and bring new readers or lapsed readers back into the industry.\u201d<\/p>\n
