{{examples}}

== Anime and Manga ==

* The ''[[Giant Robo]]'' [[OVA]] series featured characters taken from several other series Misuteru Yokoyama—the original creator of ''[[Giant Robo]]''/''Johnny Sokko and His Flying Robot''—had written. This included adaptations of the medieval Chinese stories ''Romance Of The Three Kingdoms'' and ''The Water Margins'', which led to many main and secondary characters in ancient Chinese clothing coexisting with people in three-piece suits [[Twenty Minutes Into the Future]]. It also included the very first [[Magical Girl]], ''Mahotsukai Sally'' (''Sally, the Witch''), under her original name "Sunny", as Shockwave Alberto's daughter.

* Dark Horse comics had ''[[Alien]] versus [[Predator]] versus [[The Terminator]]''.

* ''[[Fantastic Four (Comic Book)|Fantastic Four]]: True Story'' has the FF traveling to the realm of fiction, that is attacked by Nightmare, lord of the dreamworld. To fight him they join forces with [[The Divine Comedy|Dante Alighieri]], [[Sense and Sensibility (novel)|the Dashwood sisters]], [[Faust]], almost all [[William Shakespeare]]'s protagonists, [[Frankenstein's Monster]], [[Robin Hood]], the [[Ivanhoe]] cast and others, while Nightmare gains allies in the Sheriff of Nottingham, [[Dracula]] and [[Treasure Island|Long John Silver]]. Many other characters like [[Tarzan]] make cameos and in the end Johnny summons [[Lawyer-Friendly Cameo|lawyer friendly versions]] of [[James Bond]], [[Transformers|Megatron]], [[Steven Seagal]] and [[Chuck Norris]] to defeat Nightmare's army.

* As stated above, the early-90s [[Very Special Episode|public service announcement]] ''[[Cartoon All-Stars to the Rescue]]'' had characters like the ''[[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles]]'', ''[[The Smurfs]]'', ''[[Winnie the Pooh]]'', the cast of ''[[DuckTales (1987)]]'', and many others team up to teach a single kid about the dangers of drugs {{spoiler|and save his sister}}. Although, if you can see Smurfs, there's a good chance you're tripping balls already.

* The '80s cartoon ''[[Defenders of the Earth]]'' starred King Features' most famous adventure-hero characters: [[Flash Gordon (comic strip)|Flash Gordon]], [[The Phantom (comic strip)|The Phantom]], and [[Mandrake the Magician]] (along with his sidekick, the [[The Big Guy|strongman]] Lothar).

* ''[[Captain N: The Game Master]]'' featured a mishmash of characters who appeared on the [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] [[In Name Only|done wrong]]. Most of the episodes took place in the neutral Videoland, with characters like [[Castlevania|Simon Belmont]], [[Mega Man (video game)|Mega Man]] and <s>[[I Am Not Shazam|Kid Icarus]]</s> [[Kid Icarus|Pit]] hanging around, even if [[In Name Only]]. Link and Zelda from ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]'' (more accurately, from [[Super Mario Bros Super Show|the Zelda cartoon]]) appeared too.

* The [[Children in Need]] music video "Peter Kay's Animated All-Star Band", which features nearly every significant British [[Stop Motion]] characters with a few 2D British and American characters broadcast "live via satellite", including ''[[Roary the Racing Car]]'', ''[[Fifi and the Flowertots]]'', ''[[The Wombles]]'', ''[[In The Night Garden]]'', ''[[Angelina Ballerina]]'', ''[[Scooby Doo]]'', ''Bagpuss'', ''Bob the Builder'', ''[[Ben 10]]'', ''[[Thunderbirds]]'', ''[[Postman Pat]]'', ''[[SpongeBob SquarePants]]'', ''[[Fireman Sam]]'', ''[[Camberwick Green]]'', and ''[[Paddington]]'' amongst others.
