Television Crossover Universe

 In the past, I've covered other series in the Scooby-Doo Multiverse, which seems to mostly align with the DC Multiverse.

The 1972 film Fuzz was set and filmed in Boston, but that can help hide the truth---the story had a recurring arch villian for the 87th who is a cross between Moriaryy and the Riddler, l...
