ItÕs the greatest international crossover of the Õ60s that never happened-until now! Batman and Robin, the Dynamic Duo of Gotham City, fighting side by side with EnglandÕs avenging spy partners-Jonathan Steed and Emma Peel! When Bruce Wayne and his fetching new British business associate find themselves caught up in CatwomanÕs caper to steal EnglandÕs White Star diamond, Batman is nowhere to be found-but in the Caped CrusaderÕs absence, gentleman spy Jonathan Steed and his intrepid assistant Mrs. Peel are good enough to stop by and trap the thief! But it turns out that Catwoman wasnÕt working alone. Gotham City soon finds itself under attack by Steed and PeelÕs mechanical enemies, the Cybernauts-aided and abetted by BatmanÕs aristocratic antagonist, Lord Ffogg! With the White Star still in danger, the crime-fighting quartet has no choice but to rush across the pond and dive headlong into danger. But will the prowess of this transatlantic team-up be enough to save the world from an army of rampaging robots? The characters from the classic TV shows Batman and The Avengers finally combine forces in this august adventure of Anglophile action-with a Bat-twist!-from writer Ian Edginton (BATMAN) and artist Matthew Dow Smith (ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN)!

In 1997, the superhero movie was all but dead. The last Superman flick had been released a decade earlier to disastrous reviews and ticket sales. The most recent Batman film was a franchise-killing bomb. And an oft-promised Spider-Man feature was grounded. Yet a mere five years later this once-derided genre would be well on its way to world domination at the box office and even critical respectability. How did this happen? And why, two decades later, does the phenomenon show no sign of abating? Here, for the first time, is an extensively researched soup-to-nuts history of the superhero movie, from the first bargain-basement black-and-white serials to today's multiverse blockbusters. Chronicling eight decades of stops and starts, controversies and creators, good guys and bad guys--onscreen and off--this entertaining account explains how and why our entertainment universe came to be overpowered by costumed crimefighters and their nefarious counterparts.
