How Well Do You Know the Amalgam Comics Universe?

Study Notes

Amalgam Comics was a collaborative publishing imprint shared by DC Comics and Marvel Comics.
The two publishers merged their characters into new ones, which first appeared in a series of 12 one-shots published in April 1996.
A second set of 12 one-shots followed one year later in June 1997, but without the crossover event as a background.
The Amalgam Universe was designated as Earth-9602 in The Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe: Alternate Universes 2005 and as Earth-496 in The Essential Wonder Woman Encyclopedia (2015).
The first Amalgam event occurred near the end of the four-issue DC vs. Marvel crossover event in April 1996.
The two comic book universes came together when the two physical incarnations of their respective universes became aware of each other.
Access, a character created specifically for the event and co-owned by both DC and Marvel, served as a gatekeeper who became stuck while traveling between the two universes.
To prevent their total destruction, the Spectre and the Living Tribunal created an amalgamated universe, in which only Access and Doctor Strangefate (Charles Xavier) knew the truth about the merge.
During the crossover event, pairs of DC and Marvel characters were merged into single characters.
The 24 one-shots have been reprinted in four trade paperbacks.
