DC has now revealed the further details of the stories that will appear in its side of the publishers upcoming crossover with Marvel Comics, Batman/Deadpool #1. Marvel has already revealed the exciting list of stories, including a Wolverine/Batman tale by the legendary Frank Miller.
But DC is also rising to the occasion by bringing all-time-great writer Grant Morrison back to Batman, a character they revolutionized with a formative run in the early '00s, who will join up with one of DC's current top artists, Dan Mora, for the issue's main story. And that's just scratching the surface of the stacked line-up of characters and creators filling out the rest of the stories.
Alongside Morrison and Mora's main story, writers Scott Snyder, James Tynion IV, and Joshua Williamson and artist Hayden Sherman will present a team-up between magical maestros John Constantine and Doctor Strange. Then writer Tom Taylor will team up with the artist of his Nightwing run, Bruno Redondo, for a crossover between Dick Grayson and Laura Kinney Wolverine.
Meanwhile, in a story by writer Mariko Tamaki and artist Amanda Conner, Harley Quinn and Hulk will have a "showdown" that apparently involves a hot dog eating contest. And finally, Ms. Marvel Kamala Khan's co-creator writer G. Willow Wilson and Static co-creator artist Denys Cowan bring together the two young adult heroes for a shared adventure.
