DC and Marvel’s historic crossover celebration continues in a big way next spring with DC’s Superman/Spider-Man #1, officially set to hit comic shops on March 25, 2026. The one-shot arrives as part of the ongoing 50th anniversary celebration of the very first DC/Marvel crossover, Superman vs. The Amazing Spider-Man.
DC also revealed the full creative lineup and first look at cover art for the highly anticipated issue, which will feature eight brand-new crossover stories created by an all-star roster of writers and artists.
The lead story pairs Mark Waid and Jorge Jiménez, as Clark Kent and Peter Parker chase the same dangerous mystery, one tied to the villainous machinations of Brainiac and Doctor Octopus. Naturally, their investigation quickly turns into a full-blown superhero crisis once Superman and Spider-Man step into the spotlight.
The one-shot is packed with additional crossover pairings, including:
Tom King and Jim Lee on Lois Lane and Mary Jane Watson
Matt Fraction and Steve Lieber revisiting Jimmy Olsen—with a Carnage twist
Sean Murphy on Superboy (Legion) and Spider-Man 2099
Gail Simone and Belén Ortega bringing together Power Girl and Punisher
Christopher Priest and Daniel Sampere exploring a meeting between Superboy Prime and Spider-Man during the black-suit era
Greg Rucka and Nicola Scott staging a rivalry between the Daily Planet and the Daily Bugle
Plus Jeff Lemire and Rafa Sandoval delivering a heartfelt flashback centered on Pa Kent and Uncle Ben
Superman/Spider-Man #1 will retail for $7.99 for the standard edition and $8.99 for cardstock variants. Alongside Jorge Jiménez’s main cover, the issue will feature a massive lineup of open-to-order variant covers from industry superstars including Jim Lee, Daniel Sampere, Artgerm, Dave Johnson, David Nakayama, Gabriele Dell’Otto, Mikel Janín, Clayton Crain, J. Scott Campbell, Olivier Coipel, Adam Hughes, and many more. Jiménez’s main cover will also be available as a foil variant.
This new crossover follows DC’s 2026 Treasury Edition reprints of the original Superman vs. The Amazing Spider-Man and Superman and Spider-Man specials, setting the stage for even more DC/Marvel crossover projects rolling out throughout the year.
More details on DC’s Superman/Spider-Man #1, Marvel’s upcoming Spider-Man/Superman #1, and additional crossover plans will be revealed in the months ahead.
