Batman/Deadpool #1 promises to deliver a reading experience as surreal and intellectually stimulating as one would expect from this stellar creative team. According to DC’s official description, the narrative embodies a “metaphysical car crash between two storytelling philosophies.” This unique plotline juxtaposes Batman, who broods in the shadows of trauma and justice, with Deadpool, who acrobatically tumbles through chaos, often breaking the fourth wall alongside the laws of physics. Both characters must confront a threat that challenges not only their respective worlds but also the very nature of their existence as fictional entities.
In alignment with the main story, a selection of backup features will pair various other DC and Marvel characters. Notable collaborations include writers Scott Snyder, James Tynion IV, and Joshua Williamson teaming with artist Hayden Sherman for a John Constantine/Doctor Strange tale. Creators Tom Taylor and Bruno Redondo will reprise their roles for a Nightwing/Wolverine crossover. Additionally, Mariko Tamaki and Amanda Conner will partner on a Harley Quinn vs. Hulk story, while G. Willow Wilson and Denys Cowan will collaborate for a Static Shock/Ms. Marvel crossover.
