New Marvel And DC Comics Crossovers Announced At ComicsPRO

New Marvel and DC Comics crossovers announced by Marvel and DC Editors-In-Chief, CB Cebulski and Marie Javins at ComicsPRO

DC Comics Editor-In-Chief Marie Javins and Marvel Comics Editor-In-Chief CB Cebulski took to the stage this weekend at ComicsPRO, the comic book retailer summit held in Glendale, California. They followed the Keynote speech by DC General Manager SVP Anne Leung DePies, to announce a new crossover between the two comic book publishers, to be released later this year. Two one-shots, they will be titled Marvel/DC, to be produced by Marvel Comics and DC/Marvel to be produced by DC Comics.

The two talked about working on the recent reprint of previous DC and Marvel comics in the two omnibuses published last year. CB Cebulski told the assembled comic book retailers that "we really enjoyed working together. This was a really good project to have done, but I think there's another white whale that we've got." Marie Javins asked, "There's another white whale?" CB confirmed "That we haven't seen for 20 years or so." Marie Javins mocked confusion saying "I'm trying to figure out what you could possibly be talking about.  There's only other white whale I can think of."

"Another crossover, a modern crossover, are you up for it?" asked CB, turning to the retailers, "What do you think?" A large appreciative cheer led him to reply, "I guess we have no choice but to do this." Marie Javins asked, "Can I make more fart comics as part of this" referring to upcoming scratch-and-sniff Harley Quinn comics. CB countered, "I don't think that that's exactly what they were talking about". Marie exclaimed "but I brought the swatches. I brought the swatches from the printer. You can smell it. You can come and smell it. I've got them right here." CB shook his head, saying, "Well, I don't know that's what their applause was about. I think they're talking about a Marvel DC/DC Marvel crossover." To cheers, Marie asked "Can we get it done in 2025?" CB concluded "I think we put together some creators and some character ideas… "

So that's what you are getting for 2025. And Marie Javins does have the swatches for her other project at ComicsPRO, in case you do want to smell them. Marie did suggest a Bat-Mite/Punisher crossover but this probably will be a lot bigger.
