2026 is shaping up to be a major year for both Marvel Comics and DC Comics with epic 2026 crossovers and movies. If you think comics are just for kids or feel you’ve outgrown them, the upcoming slate of big-screen releases may change your mind. This year’s highly anticipated films include Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow (June 26), Spider-Man: Brand New Day (July 31), Clayface (September 11), and Avengers: Doomsday (December 18).
These releases build on the momentum of 2025 hits like Superman and Fantastic Four: First Steps, continuing to reshape both cinematic universes and expand their storytelling reach.
It has now been 50 years since Superman first crossed over to meet Spider-Man in a historic comic book event. Today, those iconic adventures are once again available, collected in a premium hardcover edition for fans and collectors alike. This year, a brand-new slate of crossover stories has reignited that excitement, delivering fresh adventures that fans will love, now also collected in hardcover.
The latest wave of DC and Marvel crossover stories is set to arrive in bookstores this fall with the release of DC/Marvel: The Cosmic Kiss Caper & Other Stories.

Two universes. Unforgettable crossover stories. For the first time in decades, DC and Marvel join forces with all-new stories, team-ups, and face-offs!
It’s the moment you’ve been waiting for! After more than 20 years, DC and Marvel characters meet again in astounding all-new adventures, collected in the pages of DC/Marvel: The Cosmic Kiss Caper & Other Stories.
In DC/Marvel: Batman/Deadpool by Grant Morrison and Dan Mora, chaos meets calculation as Gotham’s Dark Knight teams up with Marvel’s Merc with a Mouth, in a tale so mind-bending you’ll think you’re in a dream! Plus, icons collide in DC/Marvel: Superman/Spider-Man, by Mark Waid and Jorge Jiménez! 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.
Accompanying these two main features are short stories from top-tier talent including Tom King and Jim Lee pairing Lois Lane and Mary Jane Watson, Gail Simone and Belén Ortega telling the tale of Power Girl meeting Punisher, the Eisner Award-winning team of Tom Taylor and Bruno Redondo teaming up Nightwing and Wolverine (Laura Kinney), and many more pairings from some of the top writers and artists in comics today!
