Batman and Fortnite Crossing Over in Zero Point Event | Game Rant

In December Fortnite‘s infamous Zero Point was exposed as part of the start of Season 5. Since then, Fortnite‘s featured crossover after crossover, as Agent Jonesy collected the “greatest hunters” across all reality. Now Fortnite‘s ready to reveal one of its biggest crossovers yet. Fortnite and DC comics are partnering to bring Batman back for more. But even further, DC is planning an event of its own, putting out a Batman/Fortnite: Zero Point comic starting in April.

Batman/Fortnite: Zero Point is planned to be a six-issue mini-series in which Batman will travel through a tear in reality to visit Fortnite. Along the way, Batman will encounter Fortnite characters including Renegade Raider, Fishstick, Bandolier, and others. Other DC characters will also be involved, including Catwoman and Harley Quinn. The full extent of the Batman/Fortnite: Zero Point remains to be revealed, but the Multiverse appears to be at stake.

Writing the Batman/Fortnite: Zero Point comic will be Christos Gage, best known for his work on Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Avengers Academy, and Wildcats. Joining Gage on the project and offering up their art will be Reilly Brown, known for their Deadpool work, Christian Duce, Nelson DeCastro, and John Kalisz. The six-issue series will also feature a variety of variant covers featuring the talent of Jim Lee, Arthur Adams, Amanda Conner, and others.

For Fortnite fans, there’s one aspect of the DC and Fortnite partnership that’s perhaps more exciting than the rest. Each issue of Batman/Fortnite: Zero Point will be bundled with an exclusive code for a DC-themed Fortnite item. The first example is a Rebirth Harley Quinn Outfit. Those that unlock all six of the exclusive comic codes will receive an Armored Batman Zero Outfit. DC Universe Infinite subscribers will also receive all of the codes for free with their subscription.

This isn’t the first time that Fortnite‘s crossed over into comics before, of course. During the recent Fortnite crossover with Marvel, for example, several major comic books briefly showed characters being pulled through a dimensional rift. Marvel’s also did variant covers featuring Fortnite characters in 2020.

While Fortnite clearly sees value in crossing over into comics, now partnering with the two biggest comic publishers in the world, it likely has loftier goals. Partnering with DC and Marvel now for comics could mean bigger partnerships for DC and Marvel movies in the future. It worked out that with Star Wars, after all. Fortnite‘s crossovers are likely to only get bigger from here.

Fortnite is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and mobile devices.
