About the author

Mark Waid is an American comic book writer widely known for shaping modern superhero storytelling through influential runs on major characters at both DC Comics and Marvel Comics. Raised in Alabama, he developed an early fascination with comic books, particularly classic stories featuring the Legion of Super-Heroes, whose imaginative scope and sense of legacy would later inform his own writing. He first entered the comics industry during the mid 1980s as an editor and writer for the fan magazine Amazing Heroes, before publishing his first professional comic story in Action Comics. Soon afterward he joined DC Comics as an editor, contributing to numerous titles and helping shape projects across the company. After leaving editorial work to focus on writing, Waid gained widespread recognition with his long run on The Flash, where he expanded the mythology of the character and co-created the youthful speedster Impulse. His reputation grew further with the celebrated graphic novel Kingdom Come, created with artist Alex Ross, which imagined a future DC Universe shaped by generational conflict among superheroes. Over the years he has written many prominent series, including Captain America, Fantastic Four, Daredevil, and Superman: Birthright, bringing a balance of optimism, character depth, and respect for comic book history to each project. Waid has also collaborated with notable artists and writers on major ensemble titles such as Justice League and Avengers, while contributing ideas that helped clarify complex continuity within shared superhero universes. Beyond mainstream superhero work, he has supported creator owned projects and experimental publishing models, including the acclaimed series Irredeemable and Incorruptible, which explored moral ambiguity within the superhero genre. He later took on editorial leadership roles at Boom Studios, guiding creative direction while continuing to write extensively. In subsequent years he expanded his involvement in publishing and digital storytelling, helping launch online comics initiatives and advocating for new distribution methods for creators. His work has earned numerous industry awards, including Eisner and Harvey honors, reflecting both critical acclaim and enduring popularity among readers. Throughout his career Waid has remained a passionate student of comic book history, drawing on decades of storytelling tradition while continually encouraging innovation within the medium. His influence extends across generations of readers and creators, and his stories continue to shape the evolving language of superhero comics around the world today through enduring characters imaginative narratives and thoughtful reinventions of familiar myths within popular culture and modern graphic storytelling traditions.

3.5 stars

Super fun and action packed but some dialogue (Bruce) felt occ. Art by Dan Mora is immaculate.

[F. P. · Rating 4 out of 5]

Still kind of all over the place, with too much going on, but it's also pretty good within each of the sections of where something's going on.

I don't know why the story wasn't condensed to feature fewer characters; I've read better from this writer, two of which comics of his are among my favorites.

3.5 stars

[James DeSantis · Rating 4 out of 5]

Not sure how I feel about the villain but everything else is working for me. Robin and Supergirl fighting together was also great.

[Lucas Savio · Rating 3 out of 5]

A história principal em si caminha bem mas as curtas que caem as notas

[Kevin Halter · Rating 3 out of 5]

This chapter was entertaining, but it didn't seem to move the overall story forward very much--still, a decent read, and the art by Dan Mora is top-notch.

[Guilherme Smee · Rating 3 out of 5]

Temos, nesta terceira edição de Batman/Superman: Os Melhores do Mundo, uma história muito boa e uma história muito ruim. Acho que vocês já podem adivinhar quais são. Mas vamos lá. A história muito boa é a do título principal, escrita por Mark Waid e desenhada por Dan Mora, que além de tudo dá um destaque muito legal para o Robin Dick Grayson e para a Supergirl, que performam uma dupla nada dinâmica, mas sim, rival. Ponto positivo. A história muito ruim, só podia ser a encheção de linguiça que a Panini Comics Brasil faz com essa revista que é a de inserir histórias da antologia Batman: Urban Legends nela. A historia da vez é um encontro de Batman com Aquaman e Mera, no que parece ser um contexto da Era de Prata da DC Comics, mas que em momento nenhum é referenciado na revista. Uma história que, sinceramente, não precisava existir. Ponto negativo. E assim a revista se equilibra na média.

World's Finest continues to be a stand out series. While issue #3 isn't quite as strong as #1 this is still one of my favorite monthly books to pick up.

Really enjoyed the cliffhanger for this issue.

If you don't collect this series as it's released definently collect it once it is collected into its first trade!

[Burton Olivier · Rating 4 out of 5]

Dan Mora really is the best, every page is stunning. Love the way Bruce and Clark talk to each other.

[Kastie Pavlik · Rating 5 out of 5]

Fun action and a great cliffhanger. Love Mora and Bonvillain' art and colors. My only gripe is Supergirl's chest. It's like they can't figure out how to put the symbol on boobs. It's awkward.

“The Devil Nezha Chapter Three House of Ji” starts with Superman, Batman and Billy in hell. Sent there by Felix Faust.

Batman is quickly wrapped in bloody barbed wire and screams for Superman to do something. Superman does. They are released from hell.

Billy falls asleep but wakes up to threaten death to the ‘caped harlequins’ by the Devil Nezha.

On Mont Blanc, Switzerland the Doom Patrol is searching for Nezha’s tomb. They find General Immortus’s fortress and bust in. They find him but he doesn’t remember them.

Why is it Robot Man, Negative Man and Rita Farr? Isn’t she Elasti-Girl or something like that? Sorry, Elasti-Woman.

II”An immortal man cursed with dementia. How horrible.”/II

They scare him into giving him a rough location of the tomb but he’s not very helpful. They leave.

The art here is excellent as usual in this book. Heck, the art is the reason I’m reading this book!

China, 1579 B.C. Has Robin and Supergirl in a fight with the Warriors of Ji. And losing. When they finally stop fighting the Warriors tell them that they had a special tomb constructed to contain the Devil Hazha.

Superman and Batman head to Central City to find the Flash and Wonder Woman. Superman finds Flash getting his butt kicked by Mirror Master.

Batman finds Wonder Woman turned back into clay by Dr. Alchemy.

Green Lantern shows up and puts both Superman and Batman in a light-cage.

That was pretty good. Looks like a very capable bad guy this time! 3 stars

No sigue siendo endiabladamente (sic.) divertida, además sigue demostrando que Waid está disfrutando el poder tener total libertad para juguetear con más personajes y rincones del universo DC del que esperaba en inicio con una nueva trama de Team Up entre Batman y Superman. Ese estado de uno de los grandes villanos del Doom Patrol, el seguir presentando inesperados antagonistas ligados a la aparente GRAN amenaza que parece querer poner en jaque todo buen llamado superhéroe.

Luego el tema de tener a Robin y Supergirl en el pasado con su trama de Xianxia también funciona no solo por el virtuosismo gráfico de Dan Mora.

[Vinicius · Rating 4 out of 5]

Segunda edição muito boa também. Participação do Robin e da Supergirl foram ótimas, mas destaco ainda mais a participação da Patrulha do Destino. É muito bom ver autores resgatando heróis que não são populares da DC e utiliza-los em conjunto com os mais conhecidos.

[Raymond Paquette · Rating 4 out of 5]

I like the idea behind the story but the time travel trope is overused. Couldn't they have used the hidden secret society trope instead? Other than that it's two verses the world. Kinda fun.

[Shawn Ingle · Rating 4 out of 5]

Good stuff. Fast-paced and action packed. My only criticism would be that Batman is written a little too nice and light-hearted.

[OinkFish Pigs · Rating 4 out of 5]

Good, but the worst of the 3 so far.

Low 8.9

[James · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is what happens when you let Mark Waid do his thing and Dan Mora is, well, just damn great. Absolute toss-up between this and Nightwing as to which is the best DC book at the moment.

[Michael · Rating 4 out of 5]

This series is for horny people

[Avinash · Rating 5 out of 5]

Dan Mora's art is gorgeous. That alone gives this book a 5 star.

[Lizzy · Rating 3 out of 5]

Sigo sin saber qué pensar de esta serie. El dibujo es hermoso, pero su historia es algo floja y los personajes carecen de personalidad. No siento que estoy leyendo a Batman y Superma realmente

[Steven Shinder · Rating 4 out of 5]

Got really intense with the hellish aspects.

[Ernez · Rating 3 out of 5]

Bit torn on this one, although the art is AMAZING, the story was a bit dull to me.

[Paransis · Rating 4 out of 5]

Chilling ending! Fun read, but not very spectacular :)

[keara · Rating 3 out of 5]

i feel like we’re running on good vibes right now but like it’s chill ! i’m not entirely mad at it :)

[Selcry · Rating 4 out of 5]

This seems to be a victory for Nezha as we now know that he has access to the information of every hero. Let's see if Bats and Sups can defeat him.
