‘JLA/Avengers’ is coming back to comic shops this summer 2026

Marvel and DC are reprinting the legendary Kurt Busiek and George Pérez crossover in Facsimile Editions, complete with classic covers and new variants.

Eagle-eyed fans might have noticed JLA/Avengers #1 was in the May 2026 solicitations, and today Marvel has revealed Avengers/JLA #4 is coming to comic shops in August.

The return to this series via facsimile editions starts this summer. Marvel Comics and DC Comics are teaming up once again to bring JLA/Avengers, the landmark 2003 crossover by Kurt Busiek and George Pérez, back to comic shops. The four-issue series will be reissued as Facsimile Editions, presented in their original format with classic trade dress and wraparound cardstock covers. Marvel will publish issues #1 in May and #3 in July, while DC will release issue #2 in June and issue #4 in August. Each installment will also feature new variant covers.

Widely regarded as one of the most ambitious crossovers in superhero history, JLA/Avengers united Busiek with his longtime Avengers collaborator Pérez for a story that brought together the full rosters of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes and the Justice League. The series delivered universe-spanning action, with the Justice League battling Terminus and the Avengers confronting Starro, before sending each team into the other’s world on a high-stakes quest that threatened both realities.

These new editions are a continued push from Marvel and DC after launching Deadpool/Batman and Batman/Deadpool one-shots last summer.

Fans can preorder JLA/Avengers #1 Facsimile Edition at their local comic shop now and secure all four issues ahead of their staggered summer release.
