Crossoverlord - Chapter 1, Page 11

Okay, we got some webcomic mentions here that we've gotta get through. First of all, this page is a direct reference to The Crossover Wars. The Crossover Wars was a HUGE webcomic crossover event involving many, many webcomics, including the cast of The Crossoverlord. While reading Crossover Wars isn't at all necessary to following The Crossoverlord, there is a connection. In fact, there happens to be a linchpin between the two series that you can find here and here.

But wait, we're not done plugging other comics. Due to Al Schroeder's mind-boggling ability to keep track of continuity in other people's comics, he's basically deduced that some characters, regardless of how unrelated, must nonetheless live in the same universe. And thus, a connection is made to Energize and Bombshell, due to other implications that exist in such crossover comics as Heroes Unite and Energize/Dasien (returning later this summer, folks!). Thus, Dasien, Bombshell, Energize, and anyone else from Heroes Unite must all necessarily come from the same world. And yet another Liberty reference is made as well.

That leaves The Phalanx. The Phalanx is a superhero team from the Dasien comic series, although they've yet to actually be referenced in any explicit way. In fact, for now, they happen to be one of the best hidden easter eggs in the entire comic. In fact, they might be TOO well hidden. (HA! That ought to keep you little rascals busy!)

Now, this page started out with a completely different premise when I originally pitched it. There was going to be a lot more sniping going on here, but slowly it turned into a page about the Crossover Wars. One of the catalysts for this change was an inadvertent plothole that occurred when Dasien questioned Mindmistress about the multiverse. Technically, she should have remembered it from Crossover Wars, so we had to address that before anyone called us on it.

Next week, we hand things over to Ida as Mindmistress and Dasien add a third female heroine to their comedy...er... hero team. Mechagical Girl Lisa A.N.T debuts next week, but Ida's doing the art, so you'll actually have to go to the website to see it.
