The idea of a crossover between DC’s superheroes and Marvel’s has been something that has always captivated fans. The first official crossover between the two happened in 1976, with the jointly-published Superman vs. The Amazing Spider-Man, and there have been dozens more over the years…but it’s been quite a while since one of those comics has been printed. Marvel editor Tom Brevoort has said that Marvel just doesn’t consider such events worthwhile anymore, since they have to share the revenue with DC. While crossover books are always big sellers, the argument goes that Marvel can just make a big, ambitious book of their own, and even if it only sells 75% of what a crossover book would, that’s still 25% more revenue than they would get profitsharing with another publisher.
.@TheRock foresees a cross over with the Marvel and DC universes: “I turned to Ryan [Reynolds] and Gal [Gadot] and I said there should be a cross over… We can be the ones to possibly make it happen. We’ll see what happens.” https://t.co/M232HP48fJ pic.twitter.com/4uiNysPb2j
