Things are about to get a little groovier for the 1960s \"batman66meetswonderwoman77alexross_lr3\"<\/a>BATMAN comic book series! At today\u2019s Wonder Woman 75th\u00a0anniversary panel at New York Comic Con, DC announced the all-new Digital First title BATMAN \u201966 MEETS WONDER WOMAN \u201977.\u00a0\u00a0Co-written by BATMAN \u201966 veteran Jeff Parker and WONDER WOMAN \u201977 writer Marc Andreyko, the best of the \u201860s and \u201870s will come together in this action-packed miniseries based on the classicBatman\u00a0TV show staring Adam West and Burt Ward, and the fan-favorite\u00a0Wonder Woman\u00a0TV series starring Lynda Carter.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Parker is no stranger to the BATMAN \u201966 universe, having served as the series writer on the inaugural BATMAN \u201966 comic in 2013 and the BATMAN \u201966 MEETS THE MAN FROM U.N.C.L.E. crossover series earlier this year.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cReaders have asked for this team-up since the BATMAN \u201966 comic began and I\u2019m thrilled we\u2019re able to finally make it happen,\u201d said Parker. \u201cMost of the credit goes to Marc Andreyko. He found me at a show and within minutes had me fired up about the story possibilities. It really feels like Lynda Carter and Adam West going into action again, this time together.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Joining Parker, Andreyko\u2014the original writer of the acclaimed WONDER WOMAN \u201977 comic book series\u2014will lend his hand to the new miniseries.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt was BATMAN \u201966 by Jeff Parker that inspired me to ask about doing WONDER WOMAN \u201977, so getting to co-write with him is a dream come true,\u201d said Andreyko. \u201cThe\u00a0story we\u2019re spinning spans thirty years as these two legendary Super Heroes fight an ancient evil across the decades. We\u2019ve planned lots of twists, cameos and surprises along the way that fans of both series will appreciate.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
