There'll be another chapter coming very soon (possibly later this evening or tomorrow morning) for the Fantastic Four/Muppets Tonight/Farscape/Dark Crystal crossover, "The Silver Crystal".
But I want to take this time to share with you all a new idea I have that maybe all of us Muppet fans can benefit from.
As you all know by now from reading stories out of "The MARVELOUS Muppets" and "Sesame, DC", I write a lot of crossovers. I'm what you might call a "crossover addict". And this summer, I had planned to write at least about five different stories (two of which were being written for other message boards), all of which were crossing over some of my favorite shows with movies that came to theaters this summer (from
Spider-Man 3 to
Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End). However, one of those stories has been discontinued--a crossover between
Foster's Home For Imaginary Friends and the recently released live-action update to
Transformers.
The reason I had discontinued that story was to save it for this forum, and instead of using Foster's, I'll use--of course--the Muppets.
Which leads me to the big announcement....
I'm going to start a new fanfic series for any of us Muppet fans that would like to write a story that features a crossover with the Muppets that's never-before-imagined by anyone or inspired by an episode of
Muppet Babies (i.e. "MARVELOUS" and "Sesame, DC"). Your stories can either feature just the Muppets and the franchise you're crossing them over with, or you can go the distance and do what I've been doing for my two fanfic series and feature the Muppets, the secondary franchise, and other additional franchises.
My inspiration for this idea comes from the one "Sadie Story" that ReneeLouvier wrote a while back that included a crossover between the Muppets and
Back To The Future characters. While reading that story, I thought in my mind, "I've always imagined what it would be like if these characters had interacted with each other." It was such a marvelous idea, and it was even more awesome to see it all being written and posted by a fellow member.
So if your crossover idea ranges from one between the Muppets and
Harry Potter or
Sesame Street and
Indiana Jones, send me a PM about it and I'll start a thread with the title of the fanfic series ("Stranger Than Muppet Fan Fiction") attached to the title of your crossover story, introducing the synopsis of it in a sort of Rod Sterling way (for dramatic impact), and then you can take over as the author and start your marvelous tale.
I know some of you have some interesting ideas out there, so don't hesitate to share it with everyone here on Muppet Central.
