What if someday DC & Marvel do a crossover special where Doctor Manhattan and Miracle Man meet. But instead of fighting, they just start making out!?

Day 24: Favorite Crossover
Deathmate, especially Black, was incredible. Black is one of the most beautifully illustrated comics of the '90s, Homage Studios at its artistic peak. You had a melancholy cyberpunk story, the first Gen 13, and great, unexpected interactions.

I remember being sooooo excited for DEATHMATE when it was announced, but the delays really killed this book, sadly.

Just found out my former place of employment is now a veterinarian's office. I hope all the puppy and kitty pens are lined with copies of DEATHMATE.

AH, the much maligned "DEATHMATE". This could have been SO incredible, but the delays crushed any momentum this series had. Shame it will never see a deluxe reprint, either.
Who remembers?!

I am now reminded of the most 90s cover ever:
IMAGE COMICS AND VALIANT COMICS PRESENTS
SHAFT THE YOUNGBLOOD X BLOODSHOT
STARRING IN
DEATHMATE: RED
“THIS BLOOD’S FOR YOU”
(written and pencils by rob liefeld)

This is of course barring health issues or accidents. I mean, that leaning tower of DEATHMATE comics is bound to collapse someday, hopefully I'm not under it when it does.

Final book *drum roll* is Deathmate Preview! This completes my Deathmate collection. It’s like the world’s saddest infinity gauntlet.

Day 19: Crossover!
My all-time favorite intercompany crossover is Deathmate Black. Not only did you have some of the best art of the '90s and the first appearance of Gen 13, you had a melancholy cyberpunk story that felt more than a little influenced by Shadowrun.

As I've said before...when I started in comics retail, "here's Grandpa's comics collection" used to mean Golden Age books. Now Grandpa's comics collection is, like, SPAWN and DEATHMATE.

Honestly, the two universes would blend together really well. Even if it was just temporarily. Like a modern Deathmate.

WOW! Just look at the POWER of these triple gatefold Wizard magazine covers by @bartsearsart.bsky.social promoting the Image/Valiant Deathmate and Marvel vs DC inter-company crossovers of the 90’s.

Anyway, it's all just marketing. Fancy terms to make older comics easier to sell. If they can come up with an "Age" that can make DEATHMATE sell, I will 100% back it.
