DC Special Series #27 - Batman vs. The Incredible Hulk
September 1981
Writer: Len Wein
Artists: Jose Luis Garcia-Lopez/Dick Giordano
Batman vs. The Incredible Hulk was the third crossover between Marvel and DC, with the first two being the Spider-Man and Superman specials. I recall picking up this story in the Warner Books Paperback Edition in early 1982.
I fell in love with Garcia-Lopez’s art and his smooth, slick style, especially on the Batman. And Len Wein did a great job with the story as it was quite an odd pairing for this cross-company team up. I still vividly recall the scene in which the Hulk threw a car at the Batman who smashed through the windshields and slipped through it unharmed.
This story as well as the Superman and Spider-Man crossovers will be available early next year in the DC/Marvel Crossover Omnibus Volume 1.
