Hey batta batta batta, sa-wing batta! As part of a summer promotion, Dark Horse Comics characters are appearing on online baseball card trading game Baseball Boss in the form of a team called the Dark Horse All-Stars. The team includes popular Dark Horse denizens like Concrete, Hellboy, Abe Sapien (from B.P.R.D.), X, Rumor and Kraken (The Umbrella Academy), the Mask, Conan, King Kull, Cal McDonald (Criminal Macabre), SpyBoy, Ghost, the Goon, Grendel Prime, the Occultist, Go Boy 7, and Heath Huston (Fear Agent).

Baseball Boss is free-to-play, and if you sign up you get the chance to win a set of virtual baseball cards of the Dark Horse All-Stars team. Essentially, each time that your virtual baseball team beats the Dark Horse All-Stars in a best-of-five series, you can possibly win one Dark Horse card.

This isn’t the first time that Baseball Boss has featured fictional characters in their team roster. As part of an April Fool’s promotion this year, the game featured a baseball card set from the Springfield Nukes. They’re from the classic  Simpsons episode “Homer at the Bat“, in which Mr. Burns eschews his own employees and recruits nine professional ball players for his nuclear power plant’s team — including Ken Griffey Jr., José Canseco, Wade Boggs, and Daryl Strawberry.
