More Crisis Crisis....

Image
I haven't read it yet, but the TVCU Crew has informed me of some revelations from the comic book tie in to Crisis. One that's a problem is that they identify Earth-76 as the home of Wonder Woman'77 and Earth-78 as the home of the Christopher Reeves movies.  This negates some crossovers involving the Wonder Woman'77 comic and Batman'66 comic and I think that's a huge mistake on DC's part.  Especially since they included Smallville season 11 as canon. They also included Super Friends, Earth-N52, and Earth-D, which aren't problems but are cool enough to mention. They didn't seem to give Super Friends an Earth designation, which would have been useful to me for my Scooby-Doo Team-Up post. Also mentioned is Earth-F, the home of the animated Fleischer Studios shorts, which I have previously devoted an entire blog post too, so it's nice to be able to name that Earth now. Okay, see you all in January, or after I read the comic myself if I...

Return from Exile

I'm back on Facebook.  The Facebook group never left and of course remained active thanks to the TVCU Crew, but it's great to be able to reconnect to the Facebook group.  Twitter just wasn't cutting it.  You can join the Facebook discussion by clicking here.  

Twitter (and good-bye Google Plus)

Just a reminder that Google Plus is going away.  If you want to share your thoughts with the TVCU Crew about your favorite crossover finds and fan theories, you can visit us on Twitter at https://twitter.com/TelevisionCros1. 

Twitter

So now that we've established a new forum on Google Plus, they've announced they are going away at the beginning of April  So we now have a twitter account and a new TVCU e-mail. Follow us, and please keep sharing your crossover finds with us.  The TVCU Crew is a team effort.   

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 Television Crossover Universe Celebrates JOHN D. LINDSEY JR!

The forgotten Crewsie. At the same time that Matt Hickman had joined the Crew, I had also extended an invitation to John D. Lindsey Jr. John  has been one of my most valuable resources, not only for the Television Crossover Universe, but more specifically for the Horror Crossover Encyclopedia.  Those who are familiar with this website or our discussion forum are likely family with John's contributions. So when I invited him to become a website contributor, he accepted, but due to technical difficulties, he wasn't able to actually become a contributor to the site.  He did however continue to be one of my top research resources. Not many people know, but John was also invited to co-host the first episode of the Television Crossover Universe Podcast, when Ivan couldn't make it.  Our first guest was Simon R. Green, and if not for John, I wouldn't have known how cool Green's work was.  John is the man responsible for all the details in the entries for Gre...

The Television Crossover Universe Celebrates CHRIS NIGRO!

Image
We now move from the website contributors to the podcast hosts. When the Television Crossover Universe podcast was launched, the three original three co-hosts were all website contributors.  Thus, the show was hosted by the TVCU Crew.  Not longer after, Chris Nigro became the first co-host to have never contributed the the website, and thus the definition of TVCU Crew membership was expanded. Chris Nigro has been a regular in our discussion forum, and runs several of his own discussion groups and websites.  Chris was a guest on our show and a guest co-host shortly after, and people liked him, and we liked him, so he became a regular. Chris has also written the foreword for Television Crossover Universe:  Worlds and Mythology Volume I . When I presented the idea of these bios to the TVCU Crew, I gave them a short interview questionaire, purely optional.  Here are Chris' answers: 1. My favorite crossover remains the one between Universal's Frank...
