I never knew this book existed, where the DC and Marvel Universe coincided together in an 'amalgamation'.
Superman fights The Hulk, Batman and Captain America, The Flash and Quicksilver, Aquaman and Namor Wolverine and Lobo, Thanos and Darkseid, Silver Surfer and Green Lantern, Robin and Jubilee, Shazam (Captain Marvel) and Thor, Wonder Woman and Storm, Spiderman and Superboy - all the equivalent of the other but in different comic universes.
Its fun to see that all these characters kind of share the same power sometimes, or rankings. What was interesting in the books is the alternate universe where what if the characters all mashed up (think of a Batman that has Wolverine Claws, or a Superman that uses Captain America's shield).
But story wise it was quite a short read, and I wish there was a lot more actions and fighting scenes between each others. That could take ages though, but then who doesn't want to see more of Superman and Hulk smashing each other?
The story ended in a typical yet unexpected super-galactic-far-out-there kind of ending, where we get to see the 'Gods' who represent the Marvel and DC universes (also finally found out that the most powerful Marvel character is called The Living Tribunal (and I'm pretty sure we're going to see him soon in the next few Avengers/Guardians of the Galaxy movies)and for DC Comics its The Spectre). , the ending wasn't as bombastic as it could have been.
Worth a quick read definitely. Also, the book that finally fulfills your childhood dreams of ever seeing Captain America, Batman Superman and Spider man all in the same comic book. Its definitely the 'fight of the century'.
