For the first time in nearly 30 years, Batman and Spawn will do battle again thanks to a resurgent threat sent from the Court of Owls, told in a one-shot crossover comic titled Batman/Spawn that's coming out in two month's time.
The two characters have only met three times in their histories: the first two dustups were in Spawn/Batman and Batman/Spawn: War Devil and these were released in 1994. For those interested in catching up or filling out their collection, these two comics will be reprinted in Batman/Spawn: The Classic Collection and available for purchase on 15 November.

"For people who are obviously big fans of Batman and Spawn - and more importantly, Greg Capullo, even when he's inked by myself - all of those are known entities," said Todd McFarlane, the creator of the character of Spawn, in an interview with gamesradar. "I think there's a comfort level here. People are going, 'How far off the rails can these two guys get?'"
"After 30 years, I've never lost sight of the fans," continued artist Capullo. "They are my family and my life's blood and they're the ones who've helped me to realize my dream, continue to live my dream and support me and my family. So I'll make sure to give you every penny's worth on the page."
