I for one, believe in the “multiverse” theory! The theory in which there are and or IS a series of alternate earths in which every road that was not traveled, is traveled. For every action there is a reaction. Therefore for every other action, there is yet another reaction. Lets say you went to NYU, found a good job, married, had kids and so on and so forth.
OR! perhaps. You had went to University Of Miami. Fall for a bad woman. She gets you in to the drug trade. Several murders disappearances and back stabbings later. Your the worlds most profitable drug dealer with a cartel that spans from Cuba, to the great white north and beyond!
In one such reality, I can imagine. Every month a comic book company, called Marvel Comics publishes one of the greatest characters to ever grace the world of comics.. BATMAN!
*SCREAMS OF PURE HORROR* “BLASPHEMY!!!!”, “HANG HIM!” “HOW DARE YOU!?” “KILL HIM!!” “BURN HIM!!”
Whoa there! Hold your horses. Before you grab your pitch forks and torches. Please allow me to indulge in my innocent little fantasy!
I LOVE! Batman. Just as much as I LOVE Marvel! So, in my twisted little mind. I can picture Batman, living within the Marvel Universe. It would be pretty damn epic! I mean, lets face it folks. Batman is probably the most “Marvel-esque” character within DC Comics. He is as interesting and intriguing as a Marvel Character. He’s as complex as a Marvel Character. And he’s as Bad Ass as a Marvel Character!
“BATMAN IS DC! He would never fit in with Marvel! It would never work! Plus, he could kick every Marvel characters ass! So shut up and die!”
Okay.. Well. Lets examine your, claims. Shall we. “BATMAN would never fit in theMarvel Universe.”
On many occasions, DC and MARVEL have collaborated together, to put together some of the best inter-company crossovers. Some, on Epic Scales, like…
MARVEL vs DC:
JLA/AVENGERS:
Other stories were on much smaller scale. But still pretty cool, like…
PUNISHER/BATMAN
BATMAN/SPIDERMAN
HULK/BATMAN
BATMAN/DAREDEVIL
And last but not least, BATMAN/CAPTAIN AMERICA!
The beautiful thing about The Bat, is that, he’s.. Somewhat, a universal character. Put him in the right situation, with(or without) the right people. And it WORKS! To say that BATMAN wouldn’t fit in because of the type of character he is. You might as well include the DCU for that matter. His character doesn’t completely meld with some of all the bright and shininess that makes up the DCU. In my opinion. The DCU had to darken itself up, just to fit in WITH BATMAN. Where as the MCU has a perfect balance of both Light and Dark. Could you just imagine! BATMAN vs DOCTOR DOOM! BATMAN and DR.STRANGE take on the deadly alliance, of RA’s AL GOUL and MORDO! Come on!! Every issue would be one epic after another! So many possibilities.
“SO WHAT!? YOU WANT TO TAKE BATMAN OUT OF GOTHAM AND JUST PASTE HIM IN MANHATTAN!?”
Not at all! Gotham could easily co-exist with New York! Probably the city itself, could be an extension of New York State. Perhaps another island city off its coast perhaps?! And Arkham Island could be an extension of JERSEY!? (Hey! That could work! 😝) And to your comment about kicking everyone’s ass! Batman could easily defeat the entire DCU… Literally.. He can. So…. Your argument is invalid!
Please! Do not mistake these words as a slight to the DCU. Not at all! I LOVE and RESPECT DC! No matter what! I Just Think God should have placed BATMAN in the MARVEL universe!
I REPEAT! This is just me and my stupid fantasy! (Which happens to be a pretty awesome fantasy!!) Well! That will have to do it for me folks! If you have something to add to this. Please feel free to comment below. Or hit me up on Twitter (@GonzoNeo) or Instagram (@Neophoinexdragon) and if you haven’t already. PLEASE FOLLOW OR SUBSCRIBE TO THIS BLOG! I would greatly appreciate it! Thank you!
So, until next time folks… Peace out!
*DING DONG*
“Hmm, Odd?! I wonder who that could be, at this time a night? ….. …
“OH! FUUUCK!”
