Which Marvel/DC crossover was best?

[thunderbolt]

Forgot a really good one. Not DC Marvel, but.... Hellboy Batman Starman!!! Would love to see a Lobster Johnson/Captain America!!

The original Superman/Spiderman is the classic. The FF/Superman oversize treasury book was ok, but not many people remember it exists.

Also,.. I am A Big Fan of the Almagam Book,.. DarkClaw,.. Mixing the Mythos of Batman & Wolverine. I thought it was Great....

I'm a huge fan of the Amalgam books too...you could peruse those for hours and find all sorts of neat nods to the various universes.

wasnt there a batman/ captain america crossover? Guess it must have not been any good LOL

John Byrne did one...

[The Toyroom]

they did a titans/legion not too long ago

Yes but that was modern Titans and modern Legion...I'm taking about the Wolfman/Perez era of New Teen Titans and the Levitz/Giffen era of the Legion.
That idea never materialized....

The Batman/ Spider-man book from Bagley was Fantastic.
Also,.. I am A Big Fan of the Almagam Book,.. DarkClaw,.. Mixing the Mythos of Batman & Wolverine. I thought it was Great...

The WildC.A.T.S. Book with the X-men Drawn By Lee was real Great....
I also loved the Valiant/ Image Crossovers....

& The Spawn/ Batman was cool to me,.. so was the Top Cow / Marvel Cross over...

Wish we would have gotten the X-Titans sequel that Wolfman and Perez were planning with the Hellfire Club and Brother Blood.

I remember that....the 1st cross-over was done by the Marvel team of Claremont and Simonson (odd choice at the time I thought). It would have been nice to see the DC version.

Around the same time there were rumours of a Titans/Legion cross-over but that never got off the ground either.

Yeah Scott EVERYTHING from the original JLA/Avengers was scrapped and Perez did new artwork for the whole series....hurt his hand too while doing it.

[Random Axe]

I guess I'm going to have to pick up that JLA/Avengers book now that everyone is raving about it. I always liked X-Men/Titans, but usually can't stomach crossovers. I love Perez artwork and I had some book put out in 1984 or so that spotlighted his stuff and it had some early pages from the book. He probably reworked the whole thing.

JLA/Avengers!

[thunderbolt]

The Byrne Cap/Batman one, Darkseid/Galactus, JLA/Avengers, and XMen/Titans. Wish we would have gotten the X-Titans sequel that Wolfman and Perez were planning with the Hellfire Club and Brother Blood.

...
Some other modern ones that stick in my head are...Spider-Man/Batman...

That Spider-Man/Batman one I bring up all the time on here (DISORDERED MINDS) and it'll go down in history as one of my favorite comics ever.
(not that I'm a HUGE comic guy)

I wonder if the team who worked on THAT one did the SS/GL one or any
other ones?

[The Toyroom]

The original can't be beat in my book...Superman vs. Amazing Spider-Man. 2nd and 3rd choices would probably be the Batman/Hulk and the X-Men/Titans mentioned.

I've always thought that the 2nd Supes/Spidey was sub-par to the original...Dr. Doom isn't really a Spidey villain and the Parasite is a little lame as far as Supes foes go. If I had my choice I'd have preferred the Green Goblin and Brainiac somehow teaming up. Plus I felt that the addition of Wonder Woman and the Hulk as guest-stars further showed how poor the whole thing was....Spidey and Supes should've been able to carry the book all by their selves.

For the modern team-ups, I'd have to say without a doubt that the JLA/Avengers is a classic. Everything about it is perfect....there's a wealth of history and reference throughout the entire series and Perez really went to town with the artwork.

Some other modern ones that stick in my head are Green Lantern/Silver Surfer, Darkseid/Galactus, Spider-Man/Batman...
