Crossovers that should not be.

[Yora]

I discovered a hilarious crossover of the 80's horror movie The Thing and the preschooler claymation show Pingu: Warning, explicit clay gore. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OPPxI_qEzsI)

This is just wrong, but at the same time just so right. :smallbiggrin:

Now I am wondering what other kinds of really crack crossovers are out there. Just let's not mention all the porn fan fic, which I assume easily makes up 80% of the bulk. But what about Hello Kitty 40k (http://onastick.net/sitz/images/HK40K.jpg), that also keeps cracking me up. I am sure there are tonnes of other things out there, be it stories, videos, or just images of ideas for really insane crossovers.

[Traab]

Ironman/Harry Potter? Thats a pretty strange crossover, especially since they had to explain why every known magic user in the dc world ISNT a part of the "magical world" in harry potter. But watching harry attack the troll in first year with his own tech suit was fun. too bad it didnt work very well.

BtVS/Superman. BtVS/Magic the Gathering. One is just silly for how instantly overpowered a kryptonian is against vampires, the other was just insane, Slayer Magic on fanfiction.net. Both are those halloween fics that justifies instantly any crossover you can think of.

There's apparently a Harry Potter/Deadpool crossover called Thinking In Little Green Boxes, Reportedly hilarious, though I've never found where it's hosted.

Oh, and it may not entirely count, but the webcomic Exterminatus Now originally began life as a Warhammer 40K/Sonic The Hedgehog crossover.

There are some Archie comics in my study hall room at school, and one of them had that in the ad section. :smallbiggrin:

I think Archie/Sabrina crossovers are rather odd. I actually had no idea Sabrina was a comic, I just remember seeing it during Saturday Morning Cartoons back somewhere between 2005 and 2008 (I've always thought as Archie comics as relics from another time, but I guess I really should've known better when they were talking about new Archie comics in a comedy called Corner Gas during the 6th season, which ran in 2006).

It basically still is. It's a good deal more hopeful than the 40k universe, but more cynical than the Sonic universe, so it evens out. I rather like it, definitely a good one to re-read sometimes.

Well, I said 'inspired by' rather than 'is', because as far as I know anything actually Sonic-related is restricted to semi/non-canon jokes, like the one about Eggman being an Inquisitor. It's been its own universe for quite some time, without actually borrowing specific Sonic characters or settings (which is what I think of as the essential bit of a 'crossover').

It's more of a crossover in the sense of "What if you threw the two settings in a blender?" than "X and Y meet due to cosmic happenstance." in the style of many comic crossovers.

My apologies, I was adding and removing things from my post before putting it up. I was going to include a harry potter/justice league crossover called harry potter and the power of oa. But I actually think the cross worked fairly well so I erased it but missed that line while adjusting the entire deal. I got it royally screwed up apparently, not even sure how I managed that.

I feel like 40K and My Little Pony have such huge online followings that they've been crossed with just about everything at some point or another.

I just went to Fimfiction.net and checked the crossovers tag, in the last DAY fics have been submitted or undated crossing ponies with:

-Powerpuff Girls
-Singularity (some video game I've never heard of)

Yeah, while it wouldnt work so well on a pure evil being, (I think, iirc the rules changed from time to time over its history) I dont think galactus counts as evil, just amoral. To him eating earth would be like eating several plates of fried shrimp for us. We dont concern ourselves with the pain and suffering those poor shrimp went through before they died, we just know they are tasty! If some demonic shrimp rode up and made us experience all the pain of every bit of seafood we devoured, I bet it would kick our butt too! Assuming we didnt eat it first.

[Ravens_cry]

Exactly, Galacticus is Lovecraftian in his amorality. He's just hungry.

The claymation wasn't half bad.
Indeed, though I think coloured foil would have been more effective than clay for the flames.
Just because it's claymation doesn't mean everything is made of clay.

There are 3, and they tie in together. The First is the Original Series Trek/X-men crossover. The second is the Next Generation/X-men crossovover comic. This comic leads into the book. I've read all three, and at one point had the first 2 comics.

Hadn't heard about Life, the Universe and Everything before, but you may well be right. If nothing else it will contain elements of plenty of rejected Dr. Who ideas.
Life, the Universe, and Everything was based on the rejected story "Doctor Who and the Krikkitmen". The role of the Doctor was broken up into different characters, I believe. Elements of "Doctor Who and the Krikkitmen" were also reused for "The Key to Time".

Dirk Gently, on the other hand, was based on "Shada", which was never completed due to a strike, but has been released in various forms and is a fantastic story of its own right. Professor Chronotis is lifted directly from it, name and all; in the original story, he's a retired Time Lord friend of the Doctor, with slightly fewer memory problems. There are also similarities to Adams' "City of Death", which incidentally contained much more time travel than was average for Doctor Who at the time.

I think the second Dirk Gently book was an original story, though of course Thor had appeared previously.

Also, I submit: "Doctor Who and the Enterprise" (http://io9.com/5199817/the-doctor-whostar-trek-crossover-that-never-was).

Anyone who was a fan of buffy the vampire slayer would probably have gotten that reference, since xander did almost the exact same thing once. 1 2 3. 3 victims! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jw2mHII5v10&feature=related) Start it at 2:20 or so.

Well how old are you?

14, I only saw the old sesame streets like that once when I was 4 and I was watching a channel where after 7 o clock the shows become really old like sesame street and I remember the count counting bats.

Jonah and his gun.

Clever, but an actual Jormungand x Upotte crossover would carry certain... unfortunate implications.

Gun trafficking.

Not sure of the references, but my favourite thing about that picture is the trigger discipline (although it's missing the strap so it can be comfortably held in that position). :smallbiggrin:

You know, I gotta ask. Why do the girls in that style of manga even bother wearing skirts if they are that short and fluffed out that far? I mean, its like she is wearing a frisbee with pleats. Save a few bucks and wear nothing but panties, they are going to be on display anyways. Anyone live in or visit japan? Im curious if the girls school uniforms actually have skirts so short every time the wind blows their current underwear is on display. Or if its just an exaggeration of knee length skirts.

At my school officially skirts are only allowed to be at shortest 1 inch above the knee. Of course skirts get much shorter than that, to the point a strong breeze could make them pointless.
Yet it doesn't happen.

Yeah I went to a catholic high school and the same rules with the skirts applied and were ignored just about as much. Yet even though they have their skirts mid thigh or higher, we didnt get free shows every time we went outside. I was robbed. Honestly I always found it amusing, we had a dress code monitor waiting at the door at the start of every day, the girls come in with fully buttoned blouses and skirts at their knees, go into the bathroom 10 feet past the monitor and leave with the top 2-3 buttons undone and their skirts rolled up another 3-5 inches. And yet no teacher ever says anything so long as they walk in following the dress code. lol

The boy is 'Jonah' from Jormungand; he is a child mercenary working for an arms dealer. His primary weapon is an FN FNC (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FN_FNC) assault rifle. The girl is FNC (alias Funko) from Upotte. She is an anthropomorphised FN FNC. Yeah, you heard me right. The latter is kinda of a weird series.

[Wardog]

I was just reading the "Worst thing you've ever read" thread, and realised that what would probably be the worst possible crossover (I Googled it, and fotunately it doesn't exist yet):

Eye of Argon meets Doom: Repercusions of Evil.

[Eldan]

"Nay, Gringr", scowled the aetheric vocal emanation. "It has eternally been your fate to personify the abyssal fiends of fiery hell."
And gasping Gringr succumbed, being at that moment, then, one of those decaying, shambling forms.

[Tengu_temp]

Excellent. Now someone just needs to turn it into a song. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBQIx5jiTsg)

[Tanuki Tales]

It actually makes a lot of sense.
Galacticus has killed likely trillions of people, Ghost Rider has a "Guilt-o-Vison" beam thing, to make you feel bad for your crimes.
It wouldn't work some villains, but Galacticus is a special case.


Meh, it would only work on a severely weakened or dying Galactus back when that happened.

Galactus is so much >>>>>>> Zarathos it ain't even funny. Penance Stare has been resisted by far weaker beings than the mighty Galan of Tala.

But with Ghost Rider's power creep in recent years and everyone having Galactus jobbing....


Edit:

Besides, Galactus is an essentially essential Universal Force akin to Death and Eternity, the very idea of the Penance Stare affecting him is ludicrous and even then (assuming he has a soul), what is the pain of trillions lesser beings to an entity who constantly feels the pangs of caging a Universal Destroyer to the degree that only the life force of entire biosphere can hope to be a drop in the bucket?

Edit Edit:

And there's several pieces of evidence that entities with multiple or alien functioning eyes can resist the Penance Stare (such as Venom) and outright blindness or lack of conventional eyesight grants immunity to it. Galactus isn't even really humanoid, that's just how humans perceive him. Beta-Ray Bill and his race see Galactus as a massive purple Amoeba creature. He's a universal force of energy and hunger, he doesn't have eyes. :smallsigh:




*grumbles* Yes, this is a sore issue. I hate when Galactus is jobbered.

[Man on Fire]

The Chronicles of Narnia and The Golden Compass.
That would be just . . .awkward.

And would work far to well. Hell, many people belive it is the same Multiverse.

You mean the fact that now he gets the power directly from God himself? Or that part about being able to make holy equivalent of atomic explosion only with removal of free will instead of radiation?

Also, some crossovers that should not be:
MLP/Fallout, mostly because it was ridiculously godawful and guy who forced me to read it will pay in blood.

Also, this:


- I COME FROM A PLACE WHERE GODS ROAM A-MONGST THE STARS, WHERE THERE ARE BEINGS THAT COULD E-RASE ALL OF RE-AL-ITY WITH BUT A ME-RE THOUGHT, THAT COULD BEND TI-ME TO THEIR WILL AND FREE YOU FROM HAVING EVER BEING BORN!! YET, NO MAT-TER HOW PO-WER-FUL THEY ARE, THEY ALL FEAR THE SAME THING.
Kyubey:You?
- NOT ME. A WO-RD; IT IS A WO-RD THAT CAU-SES SUCH FE-AR, THAT E-VEN THE LORDS OF TI-ME ARE SENT TO THEIR KNE-ES.
Kyubey: And what word is that?
Dalek Sec: EX-TER-MINATE!!!

Both. I hate how he's now Marvel's Spectre-Lite.

He used to be a magic bruiser, yes, but he was never approaching high end cosmic. -_-

I can't decide if a Borg / Dalek crossover would be awesome or really awful.
