Marvel and DC Team Up for a new 2012 Spider-Man/ Batman crossover miniseries!

UPDATE: The story is a big rasberry PWNAGE attack (aka HOAX). Bleeding Cool confirms such too. Two of the best heroes in the comic book world are going to meet each other face-to-face once more!

Via a scoop at Bleeding Cool and reported by Comic Book Movie, DC Comics and Marvel are going to team up to produce a new 12 issue comic book series that sees The Dark Knight cross paths with your friendly neighborhood Webslinger! Entitled "Spider-Man/Batman", the series will depict the crimefighters interacting with each other through the years, starting with their very first meeting on the 48 page debut issue coming out in April, and eventually spreading out to other adventures through the course of their respective careers. Of course, this isn't the first time the heroes have interacted with one another, as Marvel and DC have made both heroes star in team up books and crossover stories in the 90's (as pictured above). Also, since The Dark Knight Rises and The Amazing Spider-Man are coming out in theaters this year, it's the perfect time for Bruce Wayne and Peter Parker to fight together to blend in with the hype!

Be sure to catch the 12 issue Spider-Man/ Batman crossover series on comic book stores and newsstands starting this April!
