Marvel/DC: Deadpool/Batman #1 — Red Sketch Variant | Original Ken Haeser Sketch Cover | Dynamic Forces CoA Publisher: Marvel Comics | Released: September 17, 2025 Main Story: Zeb Wells & Greg Capullo | One-Shot Anthology Red Blank Sketch Variant | Original Hand-Drawn Sketch by Ken Haeser | Dynamic Forces Certificate of Authenticity | Near Mint This is a truly extraordinary one-of-a-kind copy of Deadpool/Batman #1 — the red blank sketch variant — featuring an original hand-drawn sketch by acclaimed artist Ken Haeser, accompanied by an official Dynamic Forces Certificate of Authenticity confirming it as "one of a specially limited series of copies signed and remarked by Ken Haeser." Haeser's sketch concept is nothing short of inspired — a perfectly split-face portrait that merges the left half of Deadpool's mask seamlessly with the right half of Batman's cowl into a single, unified composition, a katana rising over the shoulder behind them. Rendered in bold, expressive black ink directly on the red cover, the piece is simultaneously thematically perfect for the crossover it adorns and visually stunning as a standalone work of art. No two Ken Haeser sketch covers are alike — this is a unique, unrepeatable piece of original comics art. Haeser's signature is visible at the bottom left of the sketch. Inside, Deadpool/Batman #1 is the first DC/Marvel crossover since JLA/Avengers #4 in 2004 — a landmark publishing event over two decades in the making. The one-shot features four complete original stories by an all-star lineup: "The Dead of Knight" | Zeb Wells & Greg Capullo Wade Wilson has been hired for a job in Gotham City — but will the World's Greatest Detective help him, or destroy him? The first ever meeting of Deadpool and Batman, by one of Marvel's premier writers and the legendary artist of Batman: Zero Year and Spawn. "The Devil You Know" | Kevin Smith & Adam Kubert The legendary Kevin Smith returns to both Daredevil and Green Arrow for a team-up only he could write, illustrated by superstar artist Adam Kubert. "Stars & Stripes & Wonder" | Chip Zdarsky & Terry Dodson Captain America and Wonder Woman unite in a team-up written by the acclaimed Chip Zdarsky with art by the masterful Terry Dodson.
