World Events Productions, AKA the people who handle Voltron and everything related to it sans Legendary Defender.

I thought Toei also owns the rights to the GoLion/Voltron IP as well? Oddly enough, Power Rangers follow a similar format that both Voltron and Robotech did when it came to adapting shows in America. It would be cool if PR crossovers with one of those franchises.

Man, i knew about amalgam but thought it was only for hybrid heroes created from both brands, didn't know they also did crossovers. Were the crossovers frequent and released in sizeable amounts? Or were they infrequent and hard to find?

Transformers/MLP brought a huge smile to my face, and the ending leaving wiggle room for a sequel makes me excited.
While I doubt we'll get that sequel, the possibility for it give me hope.

Amalgam is, in and of itself, the "crossover" using hybrid heroes from Marvel and DC. What Universe it operates in given the multiversal inconsistencies between the two is anyone's guess! Yes, Marvel and DC have also done crossovers (both using their standard-at-the-time-they-were printed hero sets) at varying intervals, but not recently. The dynamics of both of them and their parent companies and the comic/superhero market in general are different than they once were. I don't think the Amalgam Heroes have done crossovers with their original imprint counterparts or anyone for that matter. It's just worth noting cause it did happen once. There are also those who believe that the financial difficulties of COVID have strained the Comic Book World to the point that a NEW crossover between Marvel and DC would be a beneficial thing. No guarantee of that actually happening though, but the strange effects of a strange year might best be solved by something big and strange! I also like the idea of using this thread to make note of comic crossovers in general, not just Marvel, DC, and Amalgam. Last edited by TokuKnight89; 12-31-2020 at 05:01 AM.. |

Marvel and DC used to do crossovers infrequently. Not only Amalgam, but the reader voted DC vs Marvel comic that led into it as well. They also did an annual crossover in the 90's which was fun, too.
While DC has been under WB's thumb for ages, Marvel becoming Disney's property has made crossovers somewhat more difficult to accomplish between the two.

One of my favorite anecdotes from the making of Marvel vs DC was that the fans could vote for some of the outcomes, and the writers had to include them. Peter David was writing the issue where Lobo fought Wolverine, and Wolverine won the vote. It wasn't totally unexpected; Wolverine was maybe the most popular character in comics at the time. But Peter David was like There Is No Way For Wolverine To Beat Lobo In A Fight. Wolverine has a great healing factor, but Lobo can regenerate his whole body from a single drop of blood. There is no way for Wolverine to win. But that's what the fans picked, so that's what Peter David had to write.
The entire Wolverine vs Lobo fight happens behind a bar, and Wolverine stands up at the end as the victor. Speaking of the Marvel and DC stuff, I get why certain characters are paired up: Captain America and Batman, Hulk and Superman, etc. But like... why was Spider-Man paired up with Superboy? I know literally nothing about the latter, so anyone wanna shed light on that?

At the time they were both clones, thanks to Ben Reilly taking over as Spider-Man. (Superboy was a clone made from Superman and Lex Luthor's DNA.)
