Now one of the most famous ones was originally going to be a movie. Yes, Spider-man and Superman were going to crossover in the world of cinema first but the idea got cancelled because of the live action Superman film being made, so instead we got this legendary comic.
It's a fun book but the team up could of been a little better, but it worked for it's time. Obviously Spider-man and Superman don't exist in the same universe and this idea has been explored in future crossovers one of which is technically canon if you look deep into it even though they say it isn't.
We've also got this crossover which I feel has been overlooked
Granted it's been collected into trade and junk but usually I don't hear a lot about this one and I actually enjoyed it more then the other one. I like it how they used Parasite and Dr. Doom as a team, even though it seems random but what I like a lot about this issue is that we get Superman vs Hulk... Course this is Pre-Crisis Superman taking on your ordinary angry hulk so natually Hulk did deliver some good blows to supes until he managed to stand up to it and pretty much own him with a few hits. Pre-Crisis Superman everybody, so Godmodded that not even the hulk can take him down.
Now I want to talk about this one crossover I just read, that in no way shape or form should work but manages to have a great story. I'm talking about Robocop vs Terminator.
I love Walter Simonson's cover of it and the art of his just kicks ass and this will be the first time I'll say something about the colorists. GOOD FUCKING JOB, my God do I love the colors on the terminators and robocop. Rachelle Menashe and Steve Oliff, I commend you and now I want to find more of Dark Horse's Terminator stuff regardless of it sucking or not. Basically the plot is Robocop is the reason why skynet went all crazy and killed everyone and now they have to stop everything from happening and junk. It's written by Frank Miller before his "Crazy days", so it's great and fun fact: Miller helped write the script for Robocop 2 and his original script was also translated into a comic book. The book is an absolute blast but it's one of the weirdest species of graphic novel I have ever seen. It's got adds and paper cuts out stuff, but then again this is an OLD graphic novel I managed to find at my library. If they ever bring it back into print, you HAVE to check it out if you are a terminator or Robocop fan.
And that's about it folk, so tell us your stories about you and crossovers.
Hehe, the battle was damn good but keep in mind they both fought to the point of exhaustion with superman pushing all he can to fight someone with his weaknesses while Thor fights a powerful being on par with him. Wonderman and I believe count nefaria(Stan and Jack's evil superman) defeated Thor as well. Keep in mind when it comes to gods in both DC and Marvel, they get dumbed down a bit for a reason, but I got a crossover that tops the god of thunder taking on the man of steel....
Hehe, I've been meaning to read that classic fight between Surfer and thor. It was issue 6 of Silver Surfer I believe. And... Rob Liefeld did that crossover and I SOOO want to track it down and give it to Linkara.
