Spider-Man and Superman join forces for new Marvel and DC crossover
With the success of this year’s Batman and Deadpool one shots, it was only natural that DC and Marvel would team-up again for more crossover issues in 2026. In celebration to the 50th anniversary of their first crossover, the comic publishers are bringing Spider-Man and Superman back together for two more one-shot special issues.
First up is DC’s version of events with Superman/Spider-Man #1 which is coming in March. This issue will have six done-in-one strips from a variety of writers and artists. And for fans of variant covers, there’ll be plenty of them too!
For now, DC Comics have teased us with a selection of variant covers and a synopsis. Both of which you can check out below…
When journalists Clark Kent and Peter Parker find themselves chasing the same story, the conspiracy they uncover could change the world—especially if Brainiac and Doctor Octopus have anything to say about it. (And we bet they do!) Good thing our intrepid newshounds are secretly Superman and the amazing Spider-Man. To bring this clash of reporters‑turned‑heroes to life, Mark Waid and Jorge Jiménez join forces to headline DC’s Superman/Spider-Man #1 with an unforgettable lead story.
And don’t miss these bonus stories in DC’s Superman/Spider-Man #1, all featuring DC and Marvel characters: Tom King and Jim Lee tell a tale of Lois Lane and Mary Jane Watson, Matt Fraction and Steve Lieber revisit Superman’s pal Jimmy Olsen…and Carnage, Sean Murphy takes us to the future with Superboy (Legion) and Spider-Man 2099, Gail Simone teams up with Belén Ortega for a look at what happens when Power Girl meets Punisher, Christopher Priest and Daniel Sampere show us a time when Superboy Prime (who reads all the comics!) decided to visit Spider-Man right after he got the black suit, and Greg Rucka and Nicola Scott take us on an exciting race between the Daily Planet and the Daily Bugle.
Plus, we finally get to answer the age-old question of who would win in a fair fight: Pa Kent or Uncle Ben! (Just kidding, those guys are too nice to fight each other, but Jeff Lemire and Rafa Sandoval will take us deep into the past to see the two men bond in the face of adversity).
