Talk:Marvel vs. DC/material


 * Amalgam Comics - Universes merge to form new beings like Dark Claw, Super-Soldier, and Spider-Boy.
 * DC/Marvel: All Access- Access tries to hold the remnant fabrics of time from the previous series together, with Venom, Annihilus, Green Lantern, Doctor Strange, Robin, Jubilee and Batman guest-starring.
 * DC/Marvel: Unlimited Access - Access encounters bouts with Avengers, Justice League of America, X-Men, Magneto, Mantis, Darkseid, Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, Mystique, Sabretooth, Wonder Woman, Juggernaut and more.
 * DC/Marvel presents Green Lantern/Silver Surfer - against the Cyborg Superman, Parallax, Terrax, and Thanos. Thanos, it turns out, arranges these events to gain access to Green Lantern's ring and use it to trigger the end of the multiverse (the Cyborg and Terrax being used to test the transference process) but Parallax battles him in an attempt to harness the energy for his own purposes, and Green Lantern and the Surfer drain off their enhanced powers before returning to their respective realities.
 * This is actually a prelude to Marvel Vs. DC #1-4. At the end of the issue, the glowing cardboard box is shown as a foreshadowing of the series, and in Marvel Vs. DC #3 the Silver Surfer and Green Lantern refer to the oneshot during their fight.
 * Galactus vs. Darkseid : The Hunger - Set during the time period when the Silver Surfer is Galactus' Herald. The Surfer arrives on Apokalips to prepare it for Galactus' arrival. He encounters Orion, who has defied Highfather's order not to come to the aid of Apokalips. Orion feels it is dishonorable to stand by and allow Galactus to consume the planet. He engages the Surfer in battle and is quickly defeated. Not long afterward, Galactus arrives and is prepared to consume Apokalips. Despite being extremely weak from hunger, Galactus easily overcomes Apokalips' defenses, including an assault from Darkseid himself. As Galactus prepares to consume the planets energies, his technology reveals that Apokalips, despite the abundace of sentient humanoid life, has no life energy to consume. Having no further business, Galactus and the Surfer depart.
 * The Incredible Hulk vs. Superman - set in the Silver Age of Comic Books. Having triggered a battle between the two using a robot duplicate of the Hulk, Lex Luthor attempts to use the military's gamma-ray technology to stop Superman and the Hulk. (shared continuity)
 * JLA/Avengers- Krona and Grandmaster play a game involving the two teams searching for twelve powerful artifacts, six from each universe. (shared continuity)
 * Justice League of America #103 (1972), Amazing Adventures #16 (1973) and Thor #207 (1973) - Justice League unofficially team-up against the Avengers on Halloween.
 * Marvel and DC presents: Batman vs. the Incredible Hulk - Batman encounters Hulk under Joker's control and stops his rampage using a gas bomb. The Shaper of Worlds grants Joker omnipotent powers in exchange for saving his life, but the Hulk and Batman are able to drive the Joker to use his powers so much that his mind nearly collapses. (shared continuity)
 * Marvel and DC presents: Superman vs. the Amazing Spider-Man - Spider-Man and Superman fight Doctor Octopus and Lex Luthor in the first crossover, and battle Doctor Doom and Parasite in the second (Wonder Woman and the Hulk guest-star, the Hulk clashing briefly with Superman while Wonder Woman is tricked by Doom into briefly attacking Spider-Man). (shared continuity)
 * What If? #1 Volume 1 shows part of the first crossover, showing Superman's fist and Spidey on panel. Uatu the Watcher, when showing various Marvel timelines, questions whether Spider-Man's fight with the costume-clad alien took place within this continuity or another.
 * A panel in Avengers Forever #8 shows a scene with Lex Luthor and Doctor Octopus escaping from prison. The series' appendix simply refers to Lex as a "striking-looking bald man" to avoid copyright issues.
 * Marvel and DC presents: Uncanny X-Men and the New Teen Titans - The X-Men and Teen Titans team up to defeat Dark Phoenix (Darkseid creates a copy of Dark Phoenix using residual Phoenix energy where the original Phoenix used her powers), Deathstroke, and Darkseid (shared continuity). There were plans for a second crossover, involving The Cult Of Brother Blood and The Hellfire Club.
 * Superman/Fantastic Four - Galactus is apparently responsible for the destruction of Krypton, luring Superman into the Marvel Universe, where Galactus makes him into his new Herald despite the pleas of the Cyborg Superman (who follows his foe) to gain the power instead. Fortunately, Superman is able to shake off Galactus's influence, as Krypton's death so defines him that it remains even when his memory is erased. It is revealed that the Cyborg fakes the information about Galactus eating Krypton to encourage Superman to take him into this universe to meet Galactus.
 * Batman/Spider-Man - In the first one the Joker and Carnage are subject to a new treatment that uses a chip to remove violent impulses, but Carnage's symbiote cures him and he removes the Joker's (although the two don't get along due to the Joker favouring theatrical murder while Carnage prefers simple mass murder). In the second, the two face Ra's Al Ghul and the Kingpin, but Kingpin betrays Ra's and contacts the two heroes to save New York. (shared continuity)
 * Batman/Captain America - The heroes join forces against the Red Skull and the Joker during World War II. (shared continuity)
 * Batman/Punisher-The two take on Jigsaw and the Joker. (Note this wasn't the Bruce Wayne Batman but the fill-in Jean-Paul Valley Batman from the Knightfall saga). (shared continuity)
