Time once again for a crackilicious mash-up of two comic book continuities into one glorious mess. For this installment, prepare for gritty Wolverine to meet grim Batman. Prepare for...





Jesus. I mean look at all that's going on there. Forget the ginsu specials, I think the Claw killed people just by being fugly at them.

So, the mysterious vigilante Dark Claw has followed some thematic riddles to track down his arch-foe, the Hyena. They clash.



It's like instead of a Bat, the '90s came crashing through his window and inspired his career. (Actually, his costume looks like he killed the bat and stuck it on his face as a mask).

Meanwhile, someone's doing recon work against Mr. Logan Wayne...









The pair are interrupted by Sparrow, who's as lame as you would imagine.

While the execution might be a little clichéd at times, you have to admit the idea is intriguing. "What if Batman had Wolverine's powers?"

How can we top this entry? Only one option. Prepare for the coming of DR. STRANGEFATE!!!

(Did that make your eyes water? Good.)

I thought that was going to be a Mockingbird/Huntress hybrid, which would work. Particularly since Bobbi's first codename was Huntress.

Also, crossing Batman and Wolverine? Seems like a sorta stupid mash-up.

Dark Claw.

When Dark Claw said, "I'm a detective, remember?" I mentally added "This is what a detective looks like."

So I'm a little lost at where the painter part of this character came from.

I admit the story here was pretty bad but damnit this was one of the first comics I ever read so I have a soft spot for it.

That said I want a second Amalgam series. Come on Daken Wayne, you know you want it.

Ah, the Amalgam comics. Wacky stuff.

And I remember Dr. Strangefate all too well. A combination of Professor Xavier, Doctor Strange, and Doctor Fate just seems both ridiculously powerful and burdened with an incredibly cumbersome name.

Also, you have to show his assistants (although the only one I remember is Frankie Raynor).

I lurve the "alternate Amalgam" drawing above, but I would also have liked to have seen a Batman/Daredevil mashup: Matt Wayne inherits a fortune from his prizefighter father, then loses it all and ends up as a lawyer who defends mostly indigent clients and lives in a rundown brownstone in Hell's Kitchen... or so people think. (Think the abandoned-subway-tunnel-turned-secret-HQ of Daniel Dreiberg.) Has an unofficial working relationship with Ben Gordon, cop-turned-reporter, and battles against the King of Jokers.

Never cared for this Amalgam, Hyena I can let them off with, it's not bad, but Batman and Wolverine just never clicked as a merge, even with their respective kid sidekicks. And things like Harley Spiral were just TOO much of a WTF? (The merging of Nightwing and Moon Knight was equally bizarre)
