With more than 40 variant covers>LEGENDARY CREATORS TAKE ON THE MAN OF STEEL AND YOUR FRIENDLY NEIGHBORHOOD SPIDER-MAN! Written by Mark Waid, Tom King, Matt Fraction, Sean Murphy, Gail Simone, Christopher Priest, Greg Rucka and Jeff Lemire Art by Jorge Jimenez, Jim Lee, Steve Lieber, Sean Murphy, Belen Ortega, Daniel Sampere, Nicola Scott and Rafa Sandoval The Last Son of Krypton meets your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man!>When journalists Clark Kent and Peter Parker find themselves chasing the same story, the conspiracy they uncover could change the world — especially if Brainiac and Doctor Octopus have anything to say about it. (And we bet they do!) Good thing our intrepid newshounds are secretly Superman and the amazing Spider-Man. Brought to you by legendary storytellers Mark Waid and Jorge Jimenez.>And don't miss these bonus stories: Tom King and Jim Lee tell a tale of Lois Lane and Mary Jane Watson. Matt Fraction and Steve Lieber revisit Superman's pal Jimmy Olsen... and Carnage! Sean Murphy, meanwhile, takes us to the future with Superboy (Legion) and Spider-Man 2099. Gail Simone teams up with Belen Ortega for a look at what happens when Power Girl meets Punisher. Christopher Priest and Daniel Sampere show us a time when Superboy Prime (who reads all the comics) decided to visit Spider-Man right after he got the black suit. Greg Rucka and Nicola Scott take us on an exciting race — between the Daily Planet and the Daily Bugle. Plus, we finally get to answer the age-old question of who would win in a fair fight, Pa Kent or Uncle Ben! Just kidding, those guys are too nice to fight each other, but Jeff Lemire and Rafa Sandoval will take us deep into the past to see the two men bond in the face of adversity. Celebrate 50 years of DC/Marvel crossovers with eight new original stories by some of DC’s top talent!
>>152947083Oh, hey. Julia. Been a while since you seen some love.
>>152947110...D-CERN would be a pretty cool name for a CERN-based chatbot
>>152947226Yeah it is cool DC comics remember her.
>>1529471613 panels in and I can tell it's Priest writing this.
>>152947083KARA'S RIBCAGE IS SO HOT
>>152947172>IT'S PRIME TIME!(Also, no Amalgam Spider-Boy story? Come on!)
not posting those 40 variant cover, also source:>https://www.comicsbeat.com/preview-superman-spider-man-one-shot/>>152947370I love Superman Prime too. Good to see him again.
>>152947191Why the fuck does this lame ass, tired hyphen joke follow writers beyond Slott? >>152947154I hope Jim draws some sexy Lois and MJ. God, if I have to look at any of the bullshit modern stuff that went on between the two like ANV or whatever, I'm gonna fucking hate it.>>152947270I haven't read as much by him. What are the tells? I mean I do know that he kinda has Peter in his underwear a lot in the 80's but I assume that's just the 80's, not specific to Priest himself. Is he gay?
>>152947434>I love Superman Prime too. Good to see him again.hes the main superman now
>>152947227Paul invited PG to a club full of super villains. The fact that he won't get FRANKed for that is sad. Though I honestly doubt anyone will get FRANKed.
>>152947191Peter-Black Cat-MJ throuple
>>152947110Will the Metal Men show up? I like those guys.
>>152949626Yeah is kino and ABSOLUTE ARCHIE.
>>152947083>With more than 40 variant coversHoly fuck I hate the speculator's market so fucking muchDoes it even exist anymore for comics?
>>152947150Jim wanted an excuse to draw Mary Jane once more
>>152947191PeterFel cameo saving this boring crossover desu
>>152948059>What are the tells?I figure that anon is being literal yet joking about picking it out, but one of Priest's things is to have a single black panel with a sub-chapter title within an overall issue.The joke being you don't need to "tell" it's Priest, it's essentially his signature.No comment on his sexuality.
>>152947161Do you think SuperBara, I mean superman is tapping those sweet twink chicks of Peter. You know as bros, as a joke. H-ha-ha-h-ha
>>152951439I need to read more Spec but I thought the credits in the 80's for that series in particular looked like that? Eh maybe I should just shut up and go read more ASM until I get there.
Why the lack of variety in short stories compared to BatPool?
>>152947125>>152947127>>152947133Personally I hate the pure white backgrounds like that, I admit that for Superman it works surprisingly well but when Jimenez does the same shit in a fucking Batman comic its just disgusting, so fucking bright
>>152947083>40 variant coversMother fuck off with that shit
>>152952267You don't have to buy them all, moron. Just get the one you like most.
>>152947370>>152947434>>152948588You guys have bad taste. This story shows how Spiderman cant handle nigh all powerful superhero team ups like Shperman who basically can do everything by himself.
>>152947191genuinely can't believe they did the Peter/MJ/Fel throuple bit
>>152947177>Miguel by Sean MurphyAbsolute cinema, ultimate even
>>152947083JULIA
>>152954662olev?
>>152954687YES
>>152954687lol
>>152947083Does Julia even interacted with Pete when she was Spider-Woman. As far as I know, they didn't interact this much.
Doesn’t this come out today?
>>152947227As someone who only reads DC, I've heard of Paul from Spider-Man fans complaining, and the fact that he out of all modern characters got to show up in this crossover, which is mostly for important and iconic characters, is very funny.
>>152952882Fuck off with this shit. Nigger, it's the desperate flailing of an ailing medium. Instead of doing what they know they need to do, like invest in their talent, they resort to bullshit gimmicks just like they did in the 90's
>>152955288It's funnier because Gail is the one doing it after calling Wells out for getting divorced a few years back and using the character to self-insert and project his misery onto fans.
>>152947227How would Frank frank Gentlemen Ghost? He's already dead.
>>152955386Get possessed by Deadman to do it
>>152947083Doesn’t this issue come out today ?
When is the guetto storytime happening?>>152955153as physical digital is very after so hope one anon does a guetto storytime
>>152955934Someone will do it here or elsewhere but the afternoon I'll bet.
>>152955973In any Case, i'll be Dumping the DC Storytimes post DC K.O. Because well fuck, JLU escalated fast
>>152955934Damn I don’t have any comic book stores near me. I don’t get it why? The Deadpool and Batman issues were digital on day 1
>>152947110...do we really need to censor the word "ass" now?
I shouldn't be surprised the Superman/Spider-Man crossover is the last one storytimed. How long before it is done, please?
>>152956154It's a physical only release (for now), so it's going to take a while
>>152956154Gotta wait til someone does it.In Any case, JLU is out >>152956081Flash and GL are next
>>152955728Yes, but only in print format, no digital, it is like the old t imes cover to cover and scans, like 16 years ago.
>>152955361Mate, variant covers exist since 1986 it is not a new trick.
This was really fun!
>>152956452The Flash is out >>152956489GL 600 is next and is kinda good
>>152954662>OLEVAnd that's a man.
>>152947253Holy AI slop
>>152947097>Tom KKKing and Jim Lee storyThe most misogynist story ever written. We're talking Elliot Rodger levels. But it will be shared on TikTok and Facebook reels and people will still praise the hack Tom KKKing.
>>152958515From what little has been shown it's actually not bad
>>152956860Green Lantern is out, i forgot to post that >>152957311
Storytime when?
>>152959116Is a printed only title with no digital until a few weeks, wait a few days until then.
>>152947125Weird that they are referencing the recent bullshit with and at the same time have him as Scarlet Spider in one of the variants instead of Chasm.Please don't get my hopes up Marvel
>>152959116>>152959470Currently finishing up scanning...should I storytime it when done or just wait?
>>152955140>>152954662>Didn't even realize this was a variant cover until this thread>It wasn't in the store when I went in for other things, so didn't bother purchasing it.Crapton of Jessicas and some Cindys and Gwens though. Was this one of those rare variants?
>>152947083Julia's mask looks upside down.
>>152961107My advice is you should make a new thread, because I want to post it the 40 variant covers once you end it storytime it today or tomorrow. Let this thread die, already fullfil its purpose.By the way, thanks to asking goodmanersanon!My advise is to make a new thread in order people would read it in a easier way.But I am just another anon, do whatever you want.
>>152961652That's the plan (if someone doesn't beat me to it)>because I want to post it the 40 variant covers once you end itGood, because I was not looking forward to doing that lolBTW everybody, should I just use the standard cover as OP if I do? I got and scanned the Talaski cover with Power Girl & Black Cat (which disappointingly is not as vibrant in hand) and I could use that, but it'd be odd to use a variant instead of the main cover for the OP
>>152961822The title is literally sups and spidey, just do the normal one.
>>152961822As much I love variant cover, in a storytime, always use the main one, in order to get people to read it.
>>152959494Oh hey, I bought the one with this cover!
>>152947172Would've liked Prime paired with Otto better
>>152962664Superior Otto or Gwenpool would've been cool yeah.
>>152961822Alternative obviously because the art is superior
>>152964088
>>152959494>Spider-Ham lumped with KryptoWhy does this feel vaguely offensiveAlso feels kinda wasted not to have Prime fanboying in the corner, especially since he was outright singing the Spidey theme today. That and Luthor being with Kingsley instead of Norman. They're both green and purple R&D magnates and mortal villains, come on!
