️ Two Publishers, Both Alike in Dignity…What if DC and Marvel were one shared multiverse? We’re diving into the biggest crossover in years to explore the ultimate fan fiction gone corporate canon.Ep. 169 Deadpool Batman #1: What If Marvel & DC Were the Same Company?from Deadpool Batman #1 (Marvel/DC, 2025)Find us at https://linktr.ee/dearwatchersThey said it couldn’t be done… but they did it anyway! We're diving into Deadpool Batman #1, the first co-published Marvel/DC crossover in decades. From Deadpool in Gotham to Wonder Woman and Cap co-founding a shared past, we explore this jam-packed issue filled with seven stories by top creators like Zeb Wells, Frank Miller, Chip Zdarsky, Kelly Thompson, Kevin Smith, Al Ewing, and Ryan North.We begin with the long history of intercompany collaborations (and our past coverage on them), then break down each vignette from this new shared Earth—including Rocket Raccoon with a Green Lantern ring, a silent Jeff & Krypto tale, and Old Man Logan vs. Dark Knight Returns. We finish with a massive surprise tease of the original Amalgam Universe returning (Logo! Thanoside! Super Soldier!).Is this a one-off event? Or the beginning of a new omniversal era? Either way, we’re pondering possibilities from across both comic book cosmoses.Reading / Watch List:Deadpool Batman #1 (Marvel/DC, 2025)Captain America Wonder Woman: The Gun and the Sword by Chip Zdarsky & Terry DodsonOld Man Logan & Batman: Showdown by Frank MillerLogo: Enter Logo by Ryan North & Ryan StegmanDeadpool Batman: The Dead of Night by Zeb Wells & Greg CapulloDaredevil Green Arrow: The Red and the Green by Kevin Smith & Adam KubertRocket Raccoon Green Lantern by Al Ewing & Dike RuanJeff & Krypto: Catch by Kelly Thompson & GurihiruEmail: Podcast@DearWatchers.comFind us & support us at https://linktr.ee/dearwatchersTheme music is Space Heroes by MaxKoMusic (Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0)★ Support this podcast ★ ★ Support this podcast ★
