* In the last episode of Anime/DigimonAdventure02 the characters get blasted into another dimension that makes wishes into reality. When they ask for more power they split off into all of their alternate forms. For example Davis is able to summon Veemon, Flamedramon, Raidramon, Exveemon, Paildramon, and Imperialdramon in both dragon and fighter modes all at once where in a regular battle Veemon would only be able to transform into one of the above. Multiply this by the 6 main characters and they form a small army.

The Council in-turn see Rick C-137 as a loose-cannon with an unhealthy, passionate attachment to his Morty (which the Council see as nothing but accessories that could be switched out and replaced) that could potentially undermine their entire organization.

If a setting has {{Alternate Universe}}s, then there is probably [[AlternateSelf more than one version of the main character.]] If there are an infinite number of universes ([[Franchise/DCUniverse or even just 52]]) then there will be lots of versions of the main character. So what's better than him meeting one of them?

Meeting all of them at once! This gives lots of opportunities for OtherMeAnnoysMe bickering, while at the same time most versions of the character can find ''some'' version they can get along with. If EvilMeScaresMe, they could be there too, but at least they'll probably be outnumbered. The most important thing, though, is that they'll all be able to fight a common foe that previously overpowered them, or accomplish a significant goal.

Time-travel examples, such as [[MyFutureSelfAndMe a character meeting his past or future self/selves]], don't count unless the mechanics of the work mean time-traveling creates a different universe. For a meeting of selves from the ''same'' universe, see MesACrowd. When other selves simply meet or exist without necessarily teaming up against someone or something, see AlternateSelf.

* ''WesternAnimation/TurtlesForever'' centers around the team up of the 2003 version of the TMNT and the 1987 version. In the finale the turtles from issue 1 of the original comic book series in 1984 also join. In the end you have 12 turtles, 3 versions of each of the four brothers.
* ''WesternAnimation/UltimateSpiderMan'' had its own version of ''Spider-Verse''; a multipart story where Peter teamed up with Comicbook/SpiderMan2099, [[GenderFlip Spider-Woman/Petra Parker]], Comicbook/SpiderManNoir, [[AnimalSuperhero the Spectacular Spider-Ham]], Medieval Spider-Man, and [[Comicbook/UltimateSpiderMan Miles Morales]] to stop the Green Goblin from stealing their ADN. Interestingly, he didn't meet them all at once, but instead travelled from a dimension to another, until the end where they all come back together.
* The finale of ''WesternAnimation/SpiderManTheAnimatedSeries'' had Spidey teaming up with multiple alternate dimension versions of himself to save the universe with the help of Madame Web and The Beyonder. They include a [[ComicBook/IronMan Tony Stark]] style inventor engaged to Gwen Stacy (who "our" Spidey had [[AdaptedOut never even met]]), a version of [[CloningBlues Ben Reily]], a Spidey [[CallBack still having multiple arms do to a mutation problem]], a Spidey with Doc Ock arms, and an actor with no powers who [[RealWorldEpisode plays Spidey in movies, hailing from a universe where Spider-Man is just a famous comic character created by]] Creator/StanLee.
