The CW’s “Elseworlds” Crossover Gets the DC Comic Book Treatment

DC Comics has given The CW’s upcoming “Elseworlds” crossover the comic book treatment with a new image by artist Amy Reeder.

Designed to look like the cover of one of DC’s monthly comics, this illustration also includes the classic, all-lowercase “Elseworlds” logo. With LaMonica Garrett’s Monitor seen looming in the background, Reeder’s illustration portrays the heroes of the crossover – Green Arrow, the Flash, Supergirl, Superman and Batwoman – seemingly battling each other. Beneath them, Jeremy Davies’ maniacal-looking Dr. John Deegan can be seen looking up at them in delight, suggesting he might be the cause of the mayhem. Fans who look closely will also notice that the Flash in the image is actually Stephen Amell, while Green Arrow looks to be Grant Gustin – a development we know occurs in the event.

Reeder has drawn several highly regarded comics for DC, including the bestselling New 52 Batwoman series, which helped to define the Kate Kane version of the character.

The special 3-night “Elseworlds” crossover event will begin in “The Flash” on Sunday, December 9 at 8.00pm ET, and then continue in “Arrow” on Monday, December 10 at 8.00pm ET, and will conclude with “Supergirl” on Tuesday, December 11 at 8.00pm ET.
