Cross Overs
🕑 Added 2018-10-24 00:52:00 +0000 UTC I'm not a big fan of cross-overs. I get used to characters being in their own universe and when they cross over with another character, it breaks the atmosphere for me. I could never wrap my head around Red Sonja and Spiderman, for example. Two of my favorite characters that shouldn't be together. Doesn't make sense. I'll read them and I applaud the writers for figuring out how to mix 'em together. Having Peter Parker mistake Red Sonja for Mary Jane was pretty ingenious. What do you think about cross-overs?Comments

Yeah, your stories are fun and they way you set things up tends to work out well.

It just depends on the story. I think that there needs to be a compelling reason for the characters to be together, like a dimensional rift. For example, I consider my Gytalf-verse to be intimately linked to the Marvel Comics Universe -- I have appropriated the Wasp, Shanna the She-Devil, and Bobbi Morse as regular characters. I have Wonder Woman appear about once a month, but always imply that she has been defeated, KOed, and temporarily exiled to my dusty lil' corner of (un)reality! I also have recently done the same with the sexy Brazilian heroine Tiazinha. You have depicted her several times!

Unlikely going to be a turn off for anyone given the appeal of both characters (I'm partial to BB) and a plot that (presumably) puts them in perilous situations.

I agree. I asked cause despite my opinion on the cross-over, I’m going to have Blue Bulleteer and Domino Lady in the same story. I estimate they are about 4-5 years apart, Domino Lady being older, and they both have political parents that could have worked together, or at least known each other. I’m curious to learn if this will be a turn-off for some.
