Fans think Batman x Dragon Ball Crossover is a hint!?
Okay, it’s been a month since we set foot in 2026, and now, after a month, there’ll be a Spidey crossover with Man of Steel, but in this month itself, we got a crossover set in DC K.O.: Boss Battle. But along with that, we got a crossover, we never saw coming, never, not in a bazillion times, but we all wished for almost a similar crossover, again a bazillion times.
Yeah, guess what; Batman x Dragon Ball crossover happened! It was very silent, but highly explosive among fans. Maybe not as fans wanted, but still it is HUGEEEE!
Warning! Proceed at your own risk! DC K.O.: Knightfight #4 Spoilers ahead!
In the just-released DC K.O.: Knightfight #4, Batman visits a future in which his son, Damian Wayne, introduces him to his grandson, Alfred.
In a few panels, as Bruce is shown savoring moments with his new grandson, Alfred, we catch a glimpse of them watching TV. We see the duo laughing at a video of the Saiyan duo, Goku and Vegeta.
The palette-swapped image shows the scene from Dragon Ball Z episode 274: Mind’s Trap, where the duo encounters a giant worm within Super Buu.
For Batsy fans, this can be seen as something Batman enjoys and shares with his fandom. But a question lingers: Is DC setting Up A Dragon Ball crossover? If so, is this a hint for what’s coming?
Is this a build-up for a DC/Dragon Ball crossover!?
Superman merging with Shazam with Potara earrings was a nod to Dragon Ball already. DC K.O.: Boss Battle is featuring a huge cameo (Homelander, Red Sonja, Sabrina, Sub-Zero, Vampirella, Samantha Strong, Annabelle) from other verses/properties.
This isn’t the first time a Dragon Ball shout-out has occurred in DC Comics. In Superman #28: Legion of Darkseid Part One, a poster of Gohan (though he looks like kid Goku) and his small dragon named, Icarus, in Clark Kent’s room in Smallville.
And in Batman/Superman: World’s Finest #2, a warrior from ancient China strikes a pose similar to Goku’s famous battle stance.
It was just a reference earlier, but now the characters are getting close. Looks like we might get an actual DC x Dragon Ball crossover sooner or later. Let’s keep fingers crossed!
Anyway, now DC lovers have Superman & Batman in connection with Dragon Ball, esp. Goku & Vegeta, who were preceded by Icarus & Gohan.
DC K.O.: Knightfight #4 and DC K.O.: Boss Battle are available now, and DC. K.O. #4 will be out on 11th Feb.
