Foreword by the Author, or
Don't Say We Didn't Warn You
Before beginning this new story, I feel I should explain a few things about it. First, I wrote the original version of this story during my college days, just for my own personal laughs. For publishing online, it will first go through several extensive rewrites and revisions so that it will truly be as the tagline says, the ultimate fanfiction crossover. At least, that's how I hope it turns out. And these revisions may take a considerable amount of time, so I can't guarantee that chapters will be posted on a regular basis.
Normally, I wait until one of my stories is complete before I start publishing installments of it. Frankly, it bugs me whenever someone else starts publishing a story I start reading online or in comics, and abandons it halfway through for whatever reason, and I don't want to subject other people to that. In this one instance, however, I'm breaking my personal rule about that because this story is by far the longest one I've ever tried. It could be years before the whole thing is finished, and I don't want to wait that long before posting it.
Finally, and most importantly, this is a work of fanfiction - a very long work of fanfiction using a boat load of characters created by an equally large boat load of other people. Although most of the main cast of characters in this work are in fact my own, I want it on record as always that I make absolutely no claims to any of the borrowed characters, situations, or so-called intellectual properties that are going to appear in this work. This work is no more than and no less than a free showcase of characters from TV shows, movies, and cartoons that I grew up with as a child or later learned to love as an adult. And I want to give thanks beforehand to all those who are responsible for these characters: the writers who created them, the actors and actresses who portrayed them, and the producers and directors who brought them to the screen, big or small. Specific credits will be given as characters are introduced in the story.
