4 | ''The Crossover Wars'' was a MassiveMultiplayerCrossover that involved over ''[[http://www.dragoneers.com/crossoverwars/Warmongers.html 50 different WebComics and three forums]]'', and spanned more than 1500 comic strips over a 9 month period during the year of 2007. |
5 | |
6 | It started with two WebComics, ''Webcomic/CameoComic'' where TheHero came from, & ''Webcomic/EvilOverlordsUnited'', where [[VillainProtagonist the villains]] came from, and from then on Chaos erupted in the worlds of Webcomics. |
7 | |
8 | The Wars were more or less broken up into several smaller fronts: |
9 | * [[{{Hentai}} The Adult Wars]] |
10 | * [[{{Fantasy}} The Fantasy Wars]] |
11 | * [[MediaNotes/JennyEverywhere Jenny Everywhere & the Crossing Over Worlds]] |
12 | * [[RunningTheAsylum The Forum Wars]] [[invoked]] |
13 | * [[ScienceFiction The Sci-Fi Wars]] |
14 | * [[SideQuest The Squirrel Wars]] |
15 | * [[SuperHero The Super Wars]] |
16 | * [[BreakingTheFourthWall The WCA Hunt]] |
