Oh hell if I know. Lol. I just remembered seeing it at DC too. :) Maybe next year we will have a DC event called AGE OF APOKOLIPS. :)

I guess it depends on what the statute of limitations is for using a competitor's title.

They should do it as a crossover event featuring both companies' resident men-without-fear--Daredevil and Hal Jordan's Green Lantern.

It's just funny. :) If you google "Fear Itself" you get equal parts Marvel stuff and equal parts DC stuff. :D

LOL. Brilliant I tell you. They are both so brilliant, they might as well just merge and quit pretending to be different.

Lobo was created specifically to spoof Wolverine's popularity. Does that really count?

And Timber Wolf was created ten years before, so I don't know if that really works, either.

No one ever went broke underestimating the sophistication of comics fans.
