Crossover Classics: The Marvel/DC Collection

    (Marvel, 1992, 2001-2002)
™ and © 1976, 1981, and 2001 Marvel Characters, Inc. and DC Comics.

In 1975, the two titans of comic book publishing, Marvel Comics and DC Comics, joined editorial and creative forces to produce the first inter-company crossover: an adaptation of MGM’s Marvelous Wizard of Oz. However, that historic publication is not reprinted in this trade paperback. Instead, readers are treated to a high-quality collection of the first four Marvel/DC super-hero team-ups—behind a gorgeous George Perez (The Avengers) cover.

Thrill!—to Superman and Spider-Man teaming up to rescue Lois Lane and Mary Jane Watson and save the world from the evil machinations of Lex Luthor and Doctor Octopus in “The Battle of the Century.”

Cheer!—as the Man of Steel and Ol’ Web-Head meet up again to take down the Parasite and Doctor Doom in “The Heroes and the Holocaust.”

Gasp!—as Batman and the Hulk fall prey to the sinister plans of the Shaper of Worlds and the sheer lunacy of the Joker in “The Monster and the Madman.”

Cringe!—as the diabolical Darkseid resurrects the nigh-omnipotent Dark Phoenix and brings the X-Men, the New Teen Titans, and the entire universe to edge of destruction in “Apokolips…Now!”

Incidentally, DC/Marvel: Crossover Classics II is the follow-up volume to this incredible book.
