Another franchise I'd like to see IDW snag is the rights to TREMORS. I'd think along with doing a Season 2 to the all too short-lived series, a crossover with Jurassic Park would be sweet. Although the first idear to pop into my head for a crossover was basically already done in the IDW mini, JP:Devils In The Desert, featuring a flock of petrasaurs from the end of the third flick making their way to a southwestern town. The mini had a bit of a feel like an episode of the show.

Another crossover concept I once thought of involving the Graboids was one entitled GODZILLA/TREMORS:EL GRANDE ,involving the Big-G encountering a group of Graboids in Argentina. Whose eggs ended up stewing in a batch of heavy water that came from some the country's experiments in developing their own atomic weapons. The research was abandoned, and the labs closed up shop. Years later, the containers of heavy water corroded,and spilled out. Eventually, soaking into ground, and right on a batch of Graboid eggs. Most of the eggs were fried by the radioactivity, but three survived the radiation. On top of speeding up their growth cycle so as to cause them to grow to a height of 30 meters, and 75 meters long. The radiation also made it so their life cycles were a little screwy. The massive Graboids, called El Grandes, basically have some attribute from each stage of a normal Graboid life cycle. Black, shell plates cover their bodies. A softer, exoskeleton also covers their tounge/tentacles they use for their grabbing. And, from each of these toungues, like in a normal Ass-Blaster stage, a Grande can spew an incredibly hot flame. Worse, everytime an El Grande feeds, like the Shriekers, after a certain amount, a newborn Grande is yakked up, and within twenty four hours, fully grown.

That's a pretty awesome idea.

Youre paying for all the therapy I wasted trying to forget that.

I think the oddest crossover (If anyone remembers) was a new cartoon character created on USA Network. All I remember was that he was some Barbarian Guy (voiced by Micheal Dorn), and he appeared in all 4 cartoons USA had at the time on the same day (Savage Dragon, Street Fighter,Mortal Kombat & Wing Commander).
There has never been a "Scientifically Accurate" Dinosaur portrayed on any Television Show, Movie, or Documentary. Only what the human imagination can conceive, and I'm ok with that.

Another classic crossover from awhile back, the DC Elseworlds graphic novel BATMAN/DRACULA:RED RAIN by writer Doug Moench and art provided by Kelly Jones, with inks by Marshall Jones III.
Image
This rather dark, gothic tale features the Dark Knight dealing with the Prince of Darkness when the latter comes to Gotham City to make it his new home. Only through some pretty steep sacrifice, is Batman able to finally do in Dracula in the end.The aftermath of which is dealt in the second and third part of the Vampire Trilogy, BLOODSTORM and CRIMSON MIST.

RED RAIN no doubt ended up a bit of an inspiration to the animated Direct To Video feature THE BATMAN Vs. DRACULA. Which spins of the world of the rather overly maligned animated series that popped up in the last decade ,The Batman.
Image
Quite edgy, and if your looking to introduce the kids to some horror offerings,and not want to totally scare them to the pyschiatrist's office, this would be a nice one for them to see during the Halloween season.

The Batman is a great animated series. It gets too much hate.

The Batman was quite good I thought. Some of the complaints steemed from the animation which was a bit Japanese. I remeber a lot of hate directed towards the show's version of the Joker, with his rastafarrian, jester look. The other ,came from the "Bat-Embargo" that was inflicted on the Justice League Unlimited show which prevented the show from using any of Batman's rogues other than the Dark Knight himself. Despite the fact the show had access to the rest of the DCU, although Aquaman and his cast was likewise embargoed when his show was in brief development for a WB live action series at the time. Many a fan took it out on The Batman because of this. Also, having to follow up the act of the Timm/Dini Batman:The Animated Series, your inevitably going to find a problem or two. I thought the show was good, and even had quite a moody environment appropos for the Dark Knight. I thought the Halloween episode, "Grundy's Night" was just perfect. Especially the scene in the wax museum with all the horror characters.

Eh. I loved the first 2 seasons. Then it went downhill after introducing Batgirl and Robin.

Japanese Avengers need Zone Fighter and the ghost of Admiral Yamamoto with the adorable ghost dog from that one statue outside the subway.

I'm surprised that there has yet to be a Digimon/Pokemon crossover, in a series with each company making each episode. I've also thought of a Jurassic Park/Gon crossover comic series depicting Gon going around on the Ingen islands battling all the dinosaurs.

You know, me and GiganX3 were trying to come up with an Anime Equivalent of the avengers... it's just we couldn't think of any other then the guyver as iron man and if Broly were to turn good, then he would be Hulk. And MAAAAYBE Ken from Gatchman as Captain America and the Ghost In the Shell lady as black widow.

It's much easier to do a Anime Justice League.

You bring up Gatchaman reminds me that this is actually going to be a thing:
