If you thought McDonald’s releasing dozens of Roald Dahl books earlier this year was a bizarre match up then you’re in for another surprise.

KFC have teamed up with the creators of Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman to release a special one-shot comic book about the adventures of Colonel Sanders.

Titled The Colonel of Two Worlds - a play on the name of the famous Flash comic, The Flash of Two Worlds - the DC comic sees an evil version of the Colonel pitted against the Justice League of America.

Villains Captain Cold and Mirror Master travel to a parallel dimension to team up with the evil doppleganger before taking on the likes of The Flash and Green Lantern.

This isn’t the first time Colonel Sanders has been in a comic book. Earlier this year attendees of the San Diego Comic-Con were able to pick up copies of The Hard Way, in which he received his very own superpower: the ability to fry chicken to perfection.

The DC/KFC special issue, made for the New York Comic Con, is available to download now for free.
