10 Marvel/DC Crossovers That Need To Happen Now That Batman and Deadpool Is a Hit

The huge popularity of DC and Marvel’s recent team-up comics, DC / Marvel: Batman / Deadpool and Marvel / DC: Deadpool / Batman – which marked the first time these two universes crossed over in over 25 years – proves that fans are eager for more collaborations like these.

Marvel and DC are the two biggest names in comics and superheroes, so it’s natural they sometimes team up and create crossover events that fans enjoy. Recent crossovers have been very popular, and it looks like more are coming – something fans clearly want to see.

Aquaman and Namor Can Wage War Over Control of The Seas

Both Aquaman and Namor have been around for a long time, but haven’t consistently stayed popular in mainstream media. Often, people unfamiliar with Namor mistake him for a copy of Aquaman, the king of Atlantis from DC Comics.

Actually, these two characters are among the most interesting and popular heroes from their respective worlds. Given their strong connection to underwater societies, a team-up or even a rivalry between them makes perfect sense.

The Maker and The Batman Who Laughs Have Something in Common

The Maker and the Batman Who Laughs are both recent additions to their universes, and despite not appearing in many stories yet, they’ve both been incredibly influential. What’s particularly interesting is that both characters are villainous, alternate-reality versions of well-known heroes.

The Maker is a brilliant scientist, and the Batman Who Laughs is essentially an evil Batman. Considering how heroic their normal counterparts are, a team-up between these two villains would be incredibly destructive – and it’s exactly the kind of surprising collaboration that fans of both DC and Marvel would love to see.

Martian Manhunter and Vision Could Do So Much More Than Spar

Crossovers featuring popular characters often feel predictable because they rarely let one character definitively win a fight. We usually see stalemates – Batman doesn’t truly defeat Captain America, Superman and the Hulk always end up even. This is especially true when it comes to physical battles.

As a gamer, I think Vision and I have a lot in common – we both don’t just rush into fights! They’re both super thoughtful and strategic, more about thinking things through than just throwing punches. Honestly, seeing Vision and another intellectual character go head-to-head, not with powers but with ideas, would be amazing. It’d be a really compelling story, and I’d definitely read that!

The Guardians of the Galaxy and the Legion of Superheroes Would Take To The Stars

The Legion of Super-Heroes hasn’t always been DC’s biggest hit, much like the Guardians of the Galaxy weren’t for Marvel until recently. A crossover event bringing these two lesser-known cosmic teams together would be a real treat for their fans.

A team-up between the Guardians of the Galaxy and the Legion of Super-Heroes would be a great way to introduce more people to both groups’ impressive rosters of characters. It would be fun to see interactions like Rocket Raccoon and Timber Wolf teaming up, Star Lord meeting Lightning Lad, or Drax challenging Brainiac 5. Crossover stories don’t always need to focus solely on the most famous heroes; it’s time for teams like the Guardians to have their moment, and a combined book would be ideal.

The Question and Jessica Jones Would Be A Perfect Crime-Solving Duo

While Vic Sage originally played the Question, Renee Montoya has become the definitive version of the DC detective. This tough, streetwise vigilante fits perfectly alongside other classic heroes.

Jessica and Renee would make a fantastic and funny team for an adventure across different dimensions. It’s a great idea for a crossover – something DC and Marvel should explore more often. Seeing them work together would be really enjoyable.

Zatanna and Scarlet Witch Would Bring Mystical Mayhem

Even though the DC / Marvel: Batman / Deadpool comic already included a team-up between John Constantine and Doctor Strange, two powerful magic users, it would be a real shame not to also see Scarlet Witch and Zatanna cross over in a story together.

Zatanna and Scarlet Witch are both incredibly popular characters known for their amazing and imaginative powers. Putting them together in a story could be fantastic, because their magic allows for absolutely anything to happen – and with these two, it definitely will!

Mister Mxyzptlk and Impossible Man Could Run Amok Across Dimensions

Team-ups between Marvel and DC characters are always a bit ridiculous. It’s hard to convincingly combine those universes without resorting to complicated, reality-bending explanations. And when it comes to that kind of craziness, DC’s Mister Mxyzptlk and Marvel’s Impossible Man are perfect fits.

Both Mxyzptlk (a Superman foe) and Impossible Man (who battles the Fantastic Four) are incredibly powerful beings who can warp reality. While they caused trouble as villains in a team-up story, a comic book focused on these two would be delightfully chaotic and exactly what fans are looking for – it’s a story that needs to be told!

The Absolute and Ultimate Universes Need To Collide

Look, I love seeing the main versions of heroes like Batman, Superman, Spider-Man, and Cap team up – it’s awesome! But honestly? I’d get really excited if we saw some of those alternate universe versions crossover. And now’s the perfect time for it! Both Marvel and DC are making some incredible stories in those ‘what if?’ type universes, so bringing those versions together would be epic.

The same holds true for Marvel’s Ultimate Universe. Characters like those from Absolute Batman, Ultimate Spider-Man, Absolute Wonder Woman, and The Ultimates could come together in a strange blend of different worlds, creating a truly one-of-a-kind crossover event for either DC or Marvel.

Red Hood and Winter Soldier Need Their Own Story Together

Jason Todd and Bucky Barnes have quite a bit in common. Since both characters were considered dead during the last DC/Marvel team-up, it’s a great opportunity to pair these two former sidekicks who became anti-heroes.

These characters famously died but were brought back in the early 2000s, initially as enemies to their old teachers. Eventually, they both turned back to the side of good. A team-up story between them would be amazing, and it’s time for Marvel and DC to make it happen for their fans.

Miles Morales’ Spider-Man and Jon Kent’s Superman Are The Future

Superhero comics today often feel stuck in a rut, repeating the same stories and lacking a sense of progress. Beloved heroes have become stale, feeling less relevant or even outdated, which is a significant issue. Fortunately, there’s a positive trend: audiences are increasingly drawn to legacy characters – those who take up the mantle of older heroes – offering a glimmer of hope for the future of mainstream comics.

Miles Morales, the current Spider-Man, has quickly become a fan favorite and starred in two critically acclaimed animated movies, the Spider-Verse films. Jon Kent is the son of Superman (Clark Kent) and is now carrying on his father’s legacy as Superman. Both Miles and Jon represent the future of Marvel and DC Comics, and a team-up story featuring them would be a fantastic way to start a fresh chapter in superhero narratives.
