You can check out the official details below.

This fall, Marvel and DC unite for the first time in decades in DEADPOOL/BATMAN #1 by Zeb Wells, Greg Capullo, and more.

Announced earlier today at Entertainment Weekly, Marvel’s Merc with a Mouth meets DC’s Dark Knight this September in MARVEL/DC: DEADPOOL/BATMAN #1, the first of two crossovers between Marvel and DC more than twenty years in the making! Produced by Marvel, DEADPOOL/BATMAN #1 will be followed by BATMAN/DEADPOOL #1, produced by DC and on sale this November.

DEADPOOL/BATMAN #1 will be written by prolific Spider-Man comics writer and co-writer for Marvel Studios’ Deadpool & Wolverine Zeb Wells and drawn by industry superstar Greg Capullo, an artist with an incredible legacy at both legendary comic book companies, with influential work on Batman and X-Men titles. In addition to the main story, the one-shot will feature a lineup of jaw-dropping backup adventures, each featuring Marvel and DC character match ups that are sure to thrill every comic book fan! More details on these backup stories and their creative teams will be shared at a later date.

It’s the crossover you never expected but always wanted! Deadpool and Batman cross swords and batarangs as Marvel and DC unite for the first time in decades! Wade Wilson has been hired for a job in Gotham City, but will the World’s Greatest Detective help him or destroy him?

“After writing Amazing Spider-Man for 60 issues, I told Marvel I needed a break. Marvel told me I could do that or I could write a comic starring Deadpool and Batman with the best Batman artist of our generation. I no longer needed a break,” Wells shared with EW. “In Batman we’ve found someone who has even less time for Deadpool’s antics than Wolverine, but a city-wide threat from the Joker makes strange bedfellows (literally, if Deadpool had his way). It’s been a blast letting Deadpool loose in Gotham City and watching what happens.”

“Am I dreaming? This crossover is likely to be the high point of my career…and, I’ve had a great career,” Capullo added. “Some of my earliest work (many years ago) was on X-Force, so Deadpool and I go way back. More recently, I spent 10-plus years drawing Batman at DC. The idea that I get to do a crossover event with Deadpool and Batman…If I am dreaming, please don’t wake me!”
