New Forum

So since I'm banned from Facebook, I can't access the Facebook TVCU forum, or it's predecessor, the Crossovers Forum, or the Facebook forums related to the podcast Random Fandom or the forum for the book Horror Crossover Encyclopedia.  So I've created a new forum on the very inferior (but at least they'll have me) Google Plus, which you can find if you click here.   Come find me to talk about the Television Crossover Universe, Crossovers, the Horror Crossover Encyclopedia, Cartoon Multiverse, Sci-Fi Multiverse, DC Multiverse, Marvel Multiverse, Comic Book History, Comics to Screen, the Whoniverse, etc, etc. 

Facebook’s Arbitrary Cruelty and Bigotry

I’m poor.  I’m disabled.  I suffer from social anxiety.  All of the people with whom I share the most in common I’ve found to live far away.  People in my neighborhood, my town, my community… do not get me, and I do not get them.  But through social media, I have found close friends from throughout the world who I can geek out with.  People who get me, and I get them. Facebook has disabled my account.  First they said it was for my security, and then it was for violating their terms of service.  These are my violations: I am bi-gender and queer.  Though my legal name (which I use as an author) is Robert E. Wronski, Jr., to express my feminine side, I use the name Robyn.  My friends all call me Robyn.  So my profile name was Robyn.  Facebook didn’t like this. Because I have a male body but identity as both male and female, I used avatars of female characters like the Doctor (Jodie Whitacker) or Supergirl as my profile pic...

The Experiment: A fourth word from our sponsor...

Image
From Chris Nigro: THE EXPERIMENT Linear Horror Anthology -- The fourth in the quartet of initial books released by Wild Hunt Press for Halloween is now available for pre-order i n digital format for just $2.99! And the print edition is coming soon! This multi-author anthology of strongly interconnected tales is the brainchild of  Zach Cole , the author responsible for the series of books featuring Jeremy Walker, werewolf monster hunter (beginning with BLUE MOON) and the Marugrah kaiju novels (beginning with KAIJU EPOCH) before combining them into a single series (in fact, Wild Hunt Press's next release will be the latest in Zach's Jeremy Walker/ Marugrah series, THE TITANS' CHILDREN -- watch for it!). THE EXPERIMENT deals with the infamous Area 51 and the black ops biological experiments being conducted there. One of the most nefarious of these secret programs, Project Hydra, goes horribly awry when its six bioengineered monstrosities -- all unique and uniquely...

And now a word from our sponsor... CENTURION: DARK GENESIS Novel by Wild Hunt Press --

CENTURION: DARK GENESIS Novel by Wild Hunt Press -- The third of Wild Hunt Press's four projected Halloween releases is now available for pre-order in digital!  Like the others, a print edition will be available soon! This is my second released superhero novel intended to be the first in a series, this one focusing on Centurion, another troubled rookie teen hero native to Buffalo, New York and part of Chris Nigro's shared superhero timeline, the Warp Event Universe. Other than his age and city of location, however, Centurion couldn't possibly be more different than Moonstalker, the featured character in Nigro's other just pre-released superhero novel, MOONSTALKER: A KNIGHT IN BUFFALO. Centurion is a true recipient of fantastic superhuman powers due to being caught directly in the mysterious energies of one of the localized cosmic incidents that the scientific community have labeled Warp Events. His alter-ego, Benny Lonero, always wanted to be a superhero -- the ...

And Now a Word From Our Sponsor... MOONSTALKER: A KNIGHT IN BUFFALO Novel --

Image
I am pleased to announce that the second of Wild Hunt Press's four planned Halloween releases is now available for pr e-order! This is the first in a series of books featuring the masked teen vigilante hero Moonstalker and taking place in my shared superhero universe, the Warp Event Universe. As you will see, Moonstalker is more of an anti-hero as he engages in a brutal war against the street gangs terrorizing the mean streets of Buffalo, New York's East side, determined to take over the city himself for the "good" of the people under siege. And he isn't exactly fighting alone, considering the several copycat vigilantes who begin emerging in his wake. He'll need their help, since he will have to fight the police in addition to Buffalo's most dangerous street gang and its uber-formidable leader. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07JYBPXCG?ref_=pe_3052080_276849420&fbclid=IwAR3s--6dGRQUKhmC7I77l5wYvxRq13FMNbpIZCBy0Z9I1XLUoW-WACnZrYc

Stan Lee

Image
Stan Lee loved a shared universe. Prior to 1961, comic book crossovers between series within the same company rarely happened. Team books like JSA and 7 Soldiers had team-ups of series leads but that never spilled over into individual titles. There was the one time that the JSA met Hop Harrigan, and that time the Sandman interacted with the Newsboy Legion and the Boys Commandos. Over in Marvel, we had the Human Torch fighting Sub-Mariner. Fawcett had a few rare team-ups as well outside the Marvel Family. In the 50s, Worlds Finest brought the worlds of Superman and Batman together, and that would sometimes spill over into other titles. And Adventure Comics played with some inter-series crossovers between Superboy, Green Arrow, and Aquaman. When pre-Marvel tried to bring back the Golden Age in the 50s, we got to see Cap meeting Human Torch and Sub-Mariner. But then Stan Lee, tired of the same old comics, decided to quit. His wife convinced him that before he does tha...

The Golden Age Superman and the Old Time Radio Adventures of Superman: A TVCU Timeline

Image
THE GOLDEN AGE TVCU Note that the Superboy theory is that Krypton's explosion created a series of divergent timelines. The Golden Age timeline is one of them. Ignore any previous TVCU theories out there. The "Post-Crisis/New Earth" version is another of these divergent timelines. These timelines may resemble Earth-2 and Earth-0 of DC Comics, but are in the TVCU Multiverse and include crossovers not part of DC Comics canon. SUPERMAN (KAL-L/CLARK KENT)--Superman was Kal-L, from Krypton. Krypton was a world where its inhabitants were super-men. When the world faced destruction, scientist Jor-L sent his son to Earth, where he was found in Smallville, Kansas by John and Mary Kent. He was named Clark Joseph Kent, and raised by the farmers. As an adult, he moved to Metropolis, where he became a reporter for the Daily Star, while also using his powers to fight crime as Superman. In the Golden Age TVCU, Superman is represented by the golden age/Earth-2 comic book ver...
