Comic Book Lovers! What is/was your favorite comic crossover?

[WillParkinson]

Meaning company to company, not just intercompany.

My favorites:
The Batman/Incredible Hulk - Loved the Joker in that one. My first meeting with the Shaper of Worlds, too.

X-men/Teen Titans: Gar Logan to Wolverine: “Kitty says your name is Logan too. Think we’re related?” Wolverine: “Kitty talks too flamin’ much.”

And then when I went in search of information about these I found out there were crossovers I never knew about. Batman/Captain America? Oooh, baby.

1. Archie meets the Punisher

I thought it made the Archie comics a bit more dramatic and I really liked the idea. I didn't see the TMNT/Archie crossover though.

2. Archie won, I'm sure.

For my part I've talked Paul into going to the store to get me the TPB's of the crossovers so I can enjoy them all over again (including the ones I've never seen).

3. The Captain America/Batman one is kinda cheesy

and thats sugar coating it.

My favorite crossovers are Punisher/Batman, Judge Dredd/Batman(there has been three of these that I know of, the one with the Joker was great)


The Dc vs. Marvel crossover war in the mid 90's was decent, it had its good points, and bad...but overall I thought it was good...it also spawned the Amalgam series, and the Dark Claw aspect was awesome(a mix of Wolverine/Batman)....

Most of the crossover stories I've read, predominately DC/Marvel have been rather weak...although I know there is a somewhat recent graphic of JLA vs. Avengers which I would love to read.

I think one of the weakest crossovers I've read was Superman/Silver Surfer...it was more, comedy than anything substantial.

12. If you mean the John Byrne Cap/Batman crossover...

It's supposed to be cheesy, in the spirit of light-hearted Golden Age comics, rather than the post-DKR super-serious mode that comics have adopted (some of them successfully).

4. The Superman/Spiderman one kinda sucked.

They had to juice Spidey on some kryptonite-based drug for him to even stand a chance against Supes. Otherwise, it would have been the shortest fight in history. It was minorly amusing when Spidey's drug wore off mid punch and he nearly broke his fist on Superman's face.

5. I never read that one, people always tell me about it

and I can never find the damn thing...

[Kutjara]

6. It was released in a huge format edition, something...

...like A3 size or larger, so I'm guessing it was a fairly limited run.

8. When I was a kid...

Wayyyyy back when, that comic was awesome. I loved it. The 2nd one (with Doctor Doom) kind of sucked from the standpoint that Superman seemed so haughty. And getting infused with Kryptonite that Spiderman (while chained to a wall) had to scrape from Supes body with a fine layer of webbing.

And Paul got 2 of the collector copies of the team ups. I'm reading the Batman/Daredevil one and just loving the hell out of it.

7. Spawn and Batman.

That was fucking awesome. I'm not a comic book geek, but if I happened upon a copy of that again I might be willing to buy it. Just because.

9. hail to the king, baby

honestly I don't really read crossovers unless they're goofy. Darkseid v. Galactus was fun, though.

10. Matt Wagner's Batman/Grendel

I always loved seeing big company/small alt book crossovers (since I'm an indie comics reader for the most part) - so Batman/Grendel is my fave. Wagner always serves up some incredible Bats, and seeing him against Matt's millionaire assassin Grendel was great. The Hunter Rose/Bruce Wayne dichotomy was fantastic.

Superman/Madman is a funky second, by Mike Allred. A little goofy, but that's just Mike's super-hip style in action.

Also loved the Cerebus cameo issue of Spawn, done by Dave Sim.

[IndianaJones]

11. Lady Death/Witchblade. nt.

[Orrex]

13. X-Men/Teen Titans was pretty good

It was the first such crossover that I ever read, and I thought that it evoked each series' spirit quite well.

[TheMightyFavog]

14. Only ever owned one comic crossover...

Star Trek and X-Men


OK, The USS Enterprise has encountered Gladiator, and he literally uppercuts the storied starship. Here is Kirk's reaction. (It's funnier if you read this with the stereotypical Shatner delivery)


Oh, Nurse Chapel walks in on Bones and Beast having a conversation...

[WillParkinson]

15. Ack...

I never even knew this existed...

[Nevernose]

16. Star Trek: TNG meets the X-Men

Actually a pretty shitty book, but there's just something so amazingly nerdy about reading a novelization about when Worf battled Wolverine or the possible friendship between Picard and Professor X...
