10 Insane Batman Crossovers You Won't Believe Existed

As a backbone of the comics industry it’s only natural that Batman has a wealth of crossovers with his name on, spanning back through the ages. Combining iconic characters to draw readers has been a tactic since the Golden Age of comics, and has lead to a multitude of well-respected titles; the Justice League, the Avengers and the Suicide Squad to name a few cherished examples.

However, not all crossovers mesh as naturally as in these cases- some because the characters don’t quite fit together, and some because the franchises are tonally at odds.
