    Default Now... Batman '66 meets Man from U.N.C.L.E.

    According to Newsarama, Batman meets Man from U.N.C.L.E is set to start in December.

    With an Avengers team-up also coming...
    Could a Batman '66/James Bond announcement be around the corner?

    So does that mean the 1960's British Avengers meeting with Batman '66 is cancelled or not ?

    I sure hope not. I'm looking forward to it.
    It's possible they're doing a spy theme...

    It's also very possible that the two minis will be connected, and Man from U.N.C.L.E. is leading it off because of the push it'll get from the movie coming out.
    Whereas, most younger readers are probably more familiar with the "not-so-great" Avengers film than with the classic tv version.
    So, from a marketing standpoint, it does really make sense to go with U.N.C.L.E. first.

    Wow I bet when they were putting this deal together they didn't foresee the Man from UNCLE completely bombing at the box office. I don't think the tv show has a big enough nastalgia fanbase to make this interesting.

    I saw the move and really enjoyed it. I'm looking forward to the comics.

    I just saw the complete series on dvd, so I'm looking forward to it, too.

    I wish Hulu or Netflix carried this.
    At least Hulu has the Emma Peel Avengers episodes.

    I would read an UNCLE comic. I like the movie, but I would not read a Batman crossover.

    Would be cool if he resembled Cavil.

    Wonder what Bat-villain they will use?
    I'm not familiar with the UNCLE series so don't know which one would fit in best.

    With the Avengers either Riddler, Catwoman or Penguin would fit in
