Crossovers can be really interesting, I think, because sometimes you have to think really hard about hw you're going to make the two universes fit together. It's like one of those really difficult wooden puzzles that you have to assemble again: you take two things that have a few common points but also very wide differences and you have to make them look united and smooth like they're just one thing. IT's a very interesting way of exploring the world-building of both worlds. Of course, it's made easier sometimes, for instance when alternate universes are stated to exist in canon (think of Sliders-like stories), or simply when both stories are set in the "normal", non-supernatural contemporary Western World.

But, to take a wonderful example, "A Study in Emerald" by Neil Gaiman is an amazing crossover between Sherlock Holmes and the H P Lovecraft/Cthulhu Mythos. Those two things do no go together very well (Sherlock Holmes is super-rational, Cthulhu is super-irrational to the point of being nihilistic), but Gaiman (who is, I'll admit, my favourite writer) assembles them in such a way that makes them fit together seamlessly.

So yes um I like crossovers very much. Sorry about that.
