Marvel/DC: The Dead of Knight & Other Stories

Description

Marvel/DC: The Dead of Knight & Other Stories is one of the most significant comic book releases of recent years. After a break of more than twenty years, Marvel and DC heroes meet again on the same pages, and this volume collects the entire Marvel side of the joint project into one book.

Deadpool, Batman, Spider-Man, and Superman lead this meeting of two universes. When Wade Wilson gets a contract in Gotham City, will billionaire Bruce Wayne help him track down his target... a certain Dark Knight? And when Norman Osborn and Lex Luthor team up, big trouble is guaranteed for Spider-Man and Superman.

And that’s just the beginning: Captain America and Wonder Woman form an alliance for the ages, Daredevil fights shoulder-to-shoulder with Green Arrow, Rocket Raccoon becomes a Green Lantern, and Old Man Logan clashes with the Dark Knight in a "pensioner’s duel." Aquaman swims with Jeff the Land Shark, who also gets to know Krypto. Lightning strikes when Thor shouts "Shazam!" Spider-Man Noir encounters the Golden Age Superman. And a new Amalgam legend debuts – Logo.

The volume also includes two Infinity Comics issues (Thor/Shazam! and It's Jeff/Aquaman), published in print format for the first time. New cover art specifically for this release by Mark Bagley.
