Well, Conduit has also appeared; we haven't seen it in a while. Otherwise, it seems like a good idea; we'll see what comes of it.
Don't get me wrong, I like these covers, but some of the hero/villain combos feels deeply mismatched. "How can the combined power of Thor and Steel dare to stand up to the menacing might of... The HOBGOBLIN?!?" and of course "Can even the Man of Steel's lion heart withstand the pressure of... Cardiac?!?"
Love the cover art so far. Capullo is a legend with the art work! I am intrigued to see where this will go storyline wise.
Hoping theres going to be some interaction with Deathstroke.

Hoping fora solid storyline and some interesting tie-in tales with the other characters as well.
I'm loving this honestly. I'm just hoping qade and dick can spend time quipping.
I do like the fact of collaboration, personally I'm not too excited to see Batman and Deadpool together but it makes financial and hype sense, sales will be through the roof and if it is really Mark Waid writing then I'm sure story will be good enough for a single read at least.

I assume one of the unnamed creators will be Mark Miller because he has been teasing a DC Marvel Crossover project he says he has been working on for over a week on his FB page.
