Although this is the ninth DC/Marvel Crossover in 1995 Green Lantern/Silver Surfers: League of Evil It is the first person to suggest that the DC Universe and the Marvel Universe are two different, independent, unique and (usually) inviolable universes.
The current situation seems to be very obvious, even intuitive. Not only does it provide reasons why DC and Marvel characters constantly interact, but it also matches the publisher’s decades-old concept of alternative universes, parallel dimensions and multiverse comic lines are all set in their own universes. .
Traditionally, DC was classified by letters or numerical systems, the world originated by writer Gardner Fox in his Silver Age Flash story, starting with Earth-Two, then expanding to Earth-thre-Three, Earth-X, and more. Marvel has its own system, introduced to the public by Alan Moore in a 1983 British comic that gave the universe its own digital name, the Marvel Universe as Earth-616.
For comic readers, it’s easy one day for Justice League to see it in a regular way to visit Earth-2.
Obviously, none of the previous DC/Marvel crossovers acknowledge this premise, and each of the first eight assumes that DC and Marvel characters belong to the same universe, so if they just visited each other’s hometown, . Even if this does raise a small question behind some kind of reader’s mind (both Jim Sagittarius and Chris Claremont both recognize the crossover they write, which is the crossover characters they write, and then the The first Spider-Man, then Teen Titans, Cyborg points out how weird it is that they have never crossed the path with other publishers’ characters before).
Almost certainly, this is also true, especially given that most of these crossover characters so far. I can’t imagine if their writers brought a few pages to acknowledge the concept of a certain multiverse and then figure out some way to get Spider-Man from Earth-616 to Batman’s Earth-1 Gotham City or anything.
The largest DC/Marvel crossover ever DC and Marvel However, the miniseries are on the way, and the premise of crossing the border revolves around the DC Universe and the Marvel Universe are two separate realities.
It’s not entirely clear to me now Green Lantern/Silver Surfer Writer Ron Marz – One of the two upcoming writers DC and Marvel Series – When he wrote the event, it laid the foundation for the event comics, or in the stories he told here, the extent to which DC and Marvel Universes are independent reality is obvious.
Apparently next year Green Lantern/Silver SurferHowever, just as Maz specifically targets three panels on the last page The Evil Alliance Going to a mysterious cardboard box on the streets of New York City, it began to emit a strange light – the reader of that book was nothing at the time, but after reading it DC and Marvelthis is obvious. The scene includes a series of narratives, and the training of the reader could have known the sequel or continued some sort.
“But,” Kyle Rayner, the green light lantern, muttered to himself. “In between us… …I’m very happy that Exceed.“
(It is obvious that The Evil Alliance and DC and Marvel The DC that published this synthesis contains an ad that continues DC and Marvel: Amalgam Age Omnibuswhich contains DC and Marvel, Directly after the last page of this Surfer/GL crossover.
Considering the cosmic nature of the various characters involved The Evil Allianceit seems easy to deal with the concept of DC Universe and-Marvel universe and separation. These characters often travel through space and space, space, and other dimensions, and these characters have been involved in combat to rewrite past reality (and some recent DC characters).
Marz explores an interesting aspect of the concept in this script, and its basis DC and Marvel, Yes, the later story will create a new character, owned by DC and Marvel, whose superpowers are the ability to travel between the two universes, thus providing a continuous crossover for future crossings. means.
But while some future crossovers take advantage of this and acknowledge the premise of both universes, others just ignore it completely and continue with the original idea, just to make the publisher’s role already exist in the same In the universe. (The Wikipedia page on DC Multiverse lists the “cross-border Earth” or “Earth-7642” that happens in DC/Marvel comics, which separates them from the main DC Universe or Marvel Universe., for those caring Another option for people with such things.)
Marz’s suitability for writing this particular project goes far beyond the fact that he is going to write together DC and Marvelalthough. He was a regular DC writer at that time Green Lantern And Marvel’s Silver Surfer, Therefore, it is almost impossible for publishers to demand a more ideal cross-border writer.
The remaining creative teams include pencil artist Darryl Banks, partner at Marz Green Lantern (and co-creator of Kyle Rayner) and veteran inkman Terry Austin.
Somewhere in deep space, Silver Surfer encounters a cloaked figure standing on a destroyed planet, with the body floating past him. When the surfer faces strangers, we see this is Hank Henshaw, Superman of Superman in Superman, now his red and black look. He simply introduces himself as a “cyborg” and the two fight immediately, with the letter Chris Eliopoulos providing a large “brakkadoom!” which makes them clashing the battle numbers in the panels of the conflict Dwarf.
Meanwhile, on Earth, the style of the narrative box has changed, letting us know that we are now listening to the idea of freelance artist Kyle Rayner working on the drafting table on the logo design, mentioning him The desire to conquer “this universe”.
Both battles were broken up when the new player appeared.
In space, it’s parallax, identity Hal Jordan is angry after Marz’s Emerald Twilight, where his plot is fresh to destroy and remake DC Universe on the previous year’s page Zero hours. On Earth, it’s Thanos, wearing his classic costume, sitting in a flying chair. The two newcomers soon sent out minor bad guys.
Marz will regularly jump back and forth between the two settings to create a neat parallel narrative. After some conversation, it became clear that the cyborg and parallax had entered the reality of Silver Surfers (the latter chased the former), while Thanos (and Terrax) also came to the reality of Green Lantern through the cracks between the size.
Allallax convinces Silver Surfers to lend him a part of his universe, but he needs to complete his mission to restore the destroyed coastal city, although he recovers the lives of the dead planet and its inhabitants from the first page. .
Thanos convinces Kyle that he has built a super weapon to stop Hal Jordan, who claims he threatens both universes. But, in order to operate the weapon, he needs Kyle ( unlimited Kyle recently destroyed the ambient energy of OA in a battle with Hal. Destroy the energy of survival, and the plot he reveals to Kyle once he gets what he wants from him.
So that’s where the subtitles come from, as both heroes naively decide to align with the cosmic super pickers of the opposite universe, and each title character easily participates in their plans.
Surfers are also easily manipulated to fight Kyle, but I want to see him standing side by side with Thanos enough to convince surfer Kyle to be a bad guy.
This leads to a great double page splash, where Bank and Austin oppose the two heroes against each other in poster-quality images.
Thanos told Allalax that he used all the energy.” destroy Everything that exists. reconstruction it. It seems that our goal is Odds.“
So they also fought, so spectacular that they caught the attention of surfers.
“Maybe we’ll meet again,” the surfer said as he looked towards the closed rift, “See you again? Oh yeah, like That’s it It really happens. DC and Marvel In Mars?
Now, if you’re wondering who will win the battle between Kyle Rayner and Silver Surfer, after the double page splash here, this Four dedicated fight panels are uncertain, however, – Spoiler Alert! They will be forced to fight each other on the page DC and Marvelthe surfer will be the winner. Their battle was a battle decided by writers Marz and Peter David, rather than a fan vote, like the more compelling game.
So yes, Kyle Rayner will eventually meet with the surfers again soon after their crossover incident.
Surfers proved to be one of the next DC/Marvel collaboration stars, and so will we.
Next step: 1996 Silver Surfers/Superman #1…Not DC and Marvel Technically, this is the next DC/Marvel crossover Silver Surfers/Superman. Because it is collected in different synthesis DC and Marvel: Amalgam Age Omnibusafter we finish reviewing everything, we will do this 600 North Marvel All And start with the second synthesis.
