Marvel Comics and DC Comics are gearing up for an exciting new crossover event scheduled for later this year. According to comicbook.com, the long-time competitors have fans who have embraced stories from both publishers and previous collaborations—such as Marvel vs. DC and DC Versus Marvel: The Amalgam Age, which rolled out in omnibus form at the end of 2024—have left audiences eager for more.
At the recent ComicsPRO retailer summit in Glendale, California, industry leaders DC Editor-In-Chief Marie Javins and Marvel Comics Editor-In-Chief CB Cebulski revealed the plan. The crossover will come in the form of two one-shot issues: one from Marvel titled Marvel/DC and another from DC titled DC/Marvel.
While specific plot details remain under wraps, further announcements are expected to shed light on the storylines and the creative teams behind the project—likely including many well-known creators who have previously contributed to both houses.
There is optimism that these issues will hit the stands in 2025, though large-scale projects like this can sometimes face delays to ensure top-notch quality. Marvel Comics VP and Executive Editor Tom Brevoort noted in his Substack newsletter last year that Marvel doesn’t often dive into crossovers, but when they do, it’s driven by clear internal objectives and unique circumstances, whether the initiative comes from Marvel or is prompted by external interest.

Shazam and his family meeting Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur could be fun?
TBH, I've been really digging Stracyzinski's unorthodox crossover one-shots of recent (Doctor Doom/Rocket Raccoon, Captain America/Volstagg), so seeing something like that would also be really neat.
F'rinstance, Hal Jordan and Blade getting together to put down some space vampires. Or Black Canary on a road trip with the everluvin' Thing. Or Cassandra Cain and Valkyrie maybe...doing something
