Did you like The Avengers? That was a rhetorical question. Of course you liked The Avengers. It had six awesome superheroes, four featured in their own movies, joining forces for one epic event. Well, in the comic book world, this happens all the time. But the Avengers are just a team. They have their own comic book, just like the Justice League of America. When it gets really crazy, you get superheroes who never work together suddenly teaming up. Its like a pick-up game of basketball. Ill take Spider-Man and the Punisher for my team. Well, thats totally possible in comics. Its called a crossover. It means instant comic book sales. And, with the increasing emergence of superheroes on the silver screen, theres really no reason this comic-staple shouldnt be carried over to Hollywood. Now, it can get a little too crazy in comic books (i.e. Star Trek and X-Men), but there are some crossovers straight from the pages of comics that could not only work in film but fit relatively seamlessly into the current narratives. Heres 10 crossovers we want to see on the big screen.
10. Superman and Batman
Superman and Batman are DCs two most recognizable super heroes, and possibly the two top superheroes period. Theyve had their own cross-over series, like Worlds Finest and Superman/Batman, because of their popularity. Their duo is the classic black knight and white knight partnership. And you have the worlds most powerful being paired with the worlds most paranoid being. Sure, theyre also in the Justice League together, so why not just be content with the upcoming movie? Their partnership is best displayed when theyre alone. You get those incredibly poetic dialogues on rooftops, and you can better compare the two opposite ends of the spectrum. For now, well settle for a possible appearance from Batman in Man of Steel, but eventually a joint movie will have to be made or there will be rioting in the streets.
