  1. I read the book and then watch the movie or vice versa para may point of comparison ako. Minsan nman kasi may ibang twist na pag movie version na e... just like ung "The General's Daughter.." or ung Patriot Games... :)

  2. Amalgam Comics was the result of a collaboration between Marvel Comics and DC Comics. In 1997, the two companies brought their universes together and created a comic book miniseries alternately referred to as "Marvel vs. DC" and "DC vs. Marvel." This was not the first time for such an event, however — Superman and Spider-Man had teamed up in the 1970s.

     

    The two comic universes came together when the incarnations of their respective universes (referred to as "the Brothers") became aware of each other after aeons of slumber. To prevent the Brothers from destroying each other, characters from each universe battled to determine which universe would survive; several of the matches were determined by online voting. Access, the main character, is a gate keeper who became stuck between traveling through both Universes.

     

    When the fights concluded (including controversial victories by Wolverine and Storm over Lobo and Wonder Woman, respectively), neither universe was willing to go. To prevent total destruction, the Spectre and the Living Tribunal created a merged universe.

     

    For two months, Marvel and DC published "Amalgam Comics," a universe where their characters were merged (eg: Captain America + Superman = Super-Soldier; Wolverine + Batman = Dark Claw; Doctor Doom + Doomsday = Doctor Doomsday; Lobo + Howard the Duck = Lobo the Duck, Justice League + X-Men = JLX) and only Axel Asher and Dr. Strangefate (Doctor Strange + Doctor Fate + Professor X) knew the truth, and struggling against each other to reverse or preserve the change.

     

    During the publication of Amalgam Comics, the companies treated it as if it had always existed, giving it a fictional history stretching back to the Golden Age of Comics, as well as retcons and reboots, such as the Secret Crisis of the Infinity Hour (Secret Wars + Crisis on Infinite Earths + Infinity Gauntlet + Zero Hour), including an Amalgam version of the cover of CoIE #7, with Super-Soldier holding his sidekick's body.

     

    Eventually, Axel Asher, now called Access, managed to separate the Brothers with the help of Amalgam's heroes, and all went back to normal.

     

     

    Hey, I have this exact comic book (complete edition, in book form) sitting somewhere in my bookcase... am planning to sell it na nga e since am trying to get rid of some of my old stuff. How much do you think it would fetch me? :)
