DC’s Superman And Spider-Man Team-Up Creative Teams Announced
by Olly MacNamee
Earlier this year, it was announced that everyone’s favourite webspinner would be swinging into Superman’s path for an all-new Superman/Spider-Man crossover from DC Comics and Marvel in 2026. And now we know the creative teams involved, as well as a sneak peek at this monumental comic book special event. Well, the synopsis and a gallery of covers for the DC one-shot, at least.

“When journalists Clark Kent and Peter Parker find themselves chasing the same story, the conspiracy they uncover could change the world — especially if Brainiac and Doctor Octopus have anything to say about it. (And we bet they do!) Good thing our intrepid newshounds are secretly Superman and the amazing Spider-Man. To bring this clash of reporters‑turned‑heroes to life, Mark Waid and Jorge Jiménez join forces to headline DC’s Superman/Spider-Man #1 with an unforgettable lead story.”
Also featured in the DC published issue will be stories by Tom King and Jim Lee starring Lois Lane and Mary Jane Watson; Matt Fraction and Steve Lieber revisit Superman’s pal Jimmy Olsen … and Carnage; Sean Murphy is setting his tale in the far future with Superboy (Legion) and Spider-Man 2099; Gail Simone and Belén Ortega show us what would happen when Power Girl meets Punisher; Christopher Priest and Daniel Sampere tells the story of Superboy Prime (who reads all the comics!) visiting Spider-Man right after he got the black suit; and Greg Rucka and Nicola Scott take us on an exciting race between the Daily Planet and the Daily Bugle.
“Plus, we finally get to answer the age-old question of who would win in a fair fight: Pa Kent or Uncle Ben! (Just kidding, those guys are too nice to fight each other, but Jeff Lemire and Rafa Sandoval will take us deep into the past to see the two men bond in the face of adversity.)”
This all-new crossover comic will follow DC’s Treasury Edition reprints celebrating the original crossover: Treasury Edition 50th Anniversary of Superman vs. The Amazing Spider-Man #1 (January 7, 2026) and DC and Marvel Present: Superman and Spider-Man Treasury Edition #1 (February 4, 2026).
DC’s Superman/Spider-Man #1 releases on Wednesday, March 25th, 2026 from DC Comics with covers by Jim Lee, Scott Williams and Alex Sinclair, Daniel Sampere and Tomeu Morey, Dave Johnson, David Nakayama, Gabriele Dell’Otto, Mikel Janín, Rafael Albuquerque, Stanley “Artgerm” Lau, David Talaski, Arthur Adams, Chrissie Zullo, Josh Middleton, Scott Koblish, Olivier Coipel, Adam Hughes, Mitch Gerads, Jeff Spokes, Evan “Doc” Shaner, Steve Lieber, J. Scott Campbell, Clayton Crain, Rafael Sandoval, and more. Jorge Jiménez’s main cover will also be offered as an open-to-order foil variant cover.
