The
X-Files: Conspiracy, series of one-shots from
IDW Publishing. The Lone Gunmen (who are revealed in The
X-Files: Season 10 comics to have faked their
deaths) investigate a series of documents from the future that lead
them to investigate a series of “urban legends” that turn out to
be true, including the Ghostbusters, the Teenage Mutant Ninja
Turtles, the Transformers, and the Crow. The premise of the
Transformers, involving giant robots using Earth as a battleground,
is incompatible with the premise the CU resembles the world outside
our window, at least on the surface, and therefore I consider this an
AU.

The Ghostbusters are in the CU. I'm pretty sure that the Turtles aren't. What about the Crow? He crossed over with Razon so is he in?
ReplyDeleteOddly enough, The Crow crossed over with Gene Wolfe's science fiction series The Book of the Long Sun in a short story. That would have to be an AU.
Yes, the Crow is in through the Razor crossover, as well as a crossover with Nancy A. Collins' vampire protagonist Sonja Blue. As you may remember I posted a while ago on the Yahoo group about an upcoming comic called We Kill the Dead (formerly Revenants) that has references to and cameos by various movie slashers. One of the preview pages on the comic's Facebook page has a reference to the Crow (though not by name). The same page also features the title character of Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon, which I covered here a while ago.
ReplyDeleteThanks, I did not know about the Sonja Blue crossover or that he appeared in We Kill the Dead.
