Welcome back Top 10 Nerd Fans, Im your host Johnny Rogers.
Before we get started hit that thumbs up button if you love superhero crossover timelines
and let us know in the comments if youre team Marvel or team DC.
With that lets get to todays list of the Top 10 Craziest DC Crossovers
#10 Iron Lantern This comic book crossover is more of a combination
of characters than seperate appearances, but its still damn cool.
Gifting us with the combo of both Tony Stark and Hal Jordan we get the ultimate character
of Iron Lantern.
The combo does make for some strange reading, but somehow manages to pull it off quite nicely.
Once you can come around to this charming new character and continue reading youll be
delighted to find it chalked full of awesomeness.
Including Iron Lantern launching a giant shark into space
#9 Bullets and Bracelets Yes that is the real name of the comic book.
How incredible is that.
It gets better, this comic book series features a unique crossover of Wonder Woman and The
Punisher.
Shes even rocking a pretty cool looking jacket with the Punishers logo on it (show photo
https://bit.ly/2OItobh) The two are actually married in this comic book which gives us
a whole different type of crossover than what were used to with the Punisher.
Usually hes hell bent on killing and the other characters have a moral dilemma with that.
However in this crossover event the couple is hunting down their kidnapped child.
Which just adds so much more to the dynamic, its no longer random, its a driven plot with
purpose.
#8 Bat Meets Cap Both of these characters are the leaders in
their own franchises and have a ton in common with regards to dealing with bad guys.
This comic book is exactly what you would expect as well, my favorite part was after
seeing Captain America take down a giant Nazi war machine and while hes attempting to save
citizens from a hijacked plane hes shot out of the air which is when dun dunna nuhhh Batman
swoops in to save him.
Which cuts to a great team up with the pair kicking ass and taking names.
All with giant smiles on their face (show photo https://bit.ly/2K0RsW9)
#7 The First Crossover Back in 1976 we had the first ever crossover
between DC and Marvel.
One that pit Superman against The Amazing Spider-Man.
You know it was going to be a historic crossover event when on the first page we get comments
from both Stan Lee and Carmine Infantino.
This series is set up perfectly first by giving Superman tons of time to establish his character
and then introducing Spidey into the mix later on.
We also get to see both Lex Luthor and Dr. Octopus together for the first time and eventually
helping each other break out of their prison cells.
#6 The Hunger Now I loved the integration of bad guys from
both series in the last one I mentioned thats why Darkseid Vs Galactus is such a cool crossover
idea.
Except this time they dont have the same intentions at heart.
In Darkseid Vs. Galactus The Hunger these two mega villains are duking it out which
makes you oddly want to pick sides even though theyre both evil.
Perhaps the most unique part about this crossover is that both villains are evenly matched and
it shows when they finally get to battle it out.
Although the superhero crossovers in this comic book are great, I was hoping for much
more from this meeting of the malevolent, I definitely didnt expect them to just fire
some lasers at each other Kinda lame
#5 Uncanny This crazy DC crossover comes to us in Uncanny
X-Men backslash New Teen Titans.
This team up is very fun and well written, but if youre going to sit down to read it
you should cancel all other appointments.
It is a huge and very dense comic book chalked full of plots to follow.
We get two different plots for X-Men and Teen Titans, a side story with Robin and several
different romances including Colossus and Starfire making out Which is followed by a
hilarious line from Robin where he says - Sorry about this, starfire absorbs languages through
physical contact, sometimes she er gets carried away.
Romances aside this comic also features Wolverine, Deathstroke, The Phoenix and Gorilla Grodd
which just feels right.
#4 The Fantastic Superman Fantastic indeed.
This DC crossover is a fan favorite because it brings together Superman and the Fantastic
Four.
We got awesome moments of Superman going toe-to-toe with Galactus and the fantastic four.
We also get a narrative that suggests Superman who is seen as a cartoon is actually a real
life hero.
To that note we have some funny moments with Franklin Storm being a fanboy and a clinically
unimpressed Reed Richards whos quite used to prime-time cartoons showing up in the flesh
for some reason.
#3 Battle Royale Had to give this crazy DC crossover that name
considering all of the madness that ensues with the Avengers going face to face with
the Justice League of America.
This has to be a comic book writers dream to include so many key superheros jam packed
into one comic.
And they do not disappoint, not only do we get epic team up moments against bad guys
but we also get to see almost every hero using their respective powers to fight one another.
Which looks a little something like this
#2 Just Imagine This series is crazy special because it takes
classic DC characters and through the eyes of Stan Lee reimagines them from his point
of view.
Its not a simple reboot either, you can tell that a lot of time went into perfectly crafting
and creating the heroes we know and love from DC.
Not only does the late great Stan Lee reinvent these heroes he attaches a new and inventive
backstory for each.
In this series we see a new superman, batman, green lantern and a plethora of other great
characters.
#1 All Access This four part series is an incredibly well
thought out plot that features a unique crossover of DC and Marvel.
All access offers great spacing for the storyline where we see the main characters getting their
solo moments along with an overarching storyline.
You can tell a ton of work went into creating a crossover that wasnt too dense and carefully
spread out the two universes.
If that wasnt enough for you DC and Marvel also teamed up to create a superhero known
as Access which just seems fitting.
And that has been the Top 10 Craziest DC Crossovers.
