Overview
- Warner Bros. Discovery, DC Comics, Toei Company and Bandai announced the collaboration as a formal project titled Batman × Kamen Rider ZERO‑ONE: LEGENDS UNITE – A New Legend Begins.
- DC will publish an original comic written by Kenny Porter with art by tokitokoro as the first entry in the collaboration.
- Bandai confirmed it will produce and distribute tie‑in merchandise in Japan and in select international markets, including North America.
- The announcement began with a tease on DC Japan’s X account tied to Batman Day and was framed by executives as a natural fit because both heroes are corporate leaders who face themes of identity and AI.
- The project marks part of Kamen Rider’s 55th anniversary activity and signals a cross‑cultural push that could expand both brands, with specific release dates and broader distribution details to be announced.
