    Usagi Yojimbo and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comics.

    What a strange crossover. I mean, it makes sense, but still, it made me chuckle

      TMNT did all sorts of crossovers back in the day. They’re one of the original “mega-crossover” franchises.

      RWBY x Justice League on the other hand… (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justice_League_x_RWBY:_Super_Heroes_%26_Huntsmen)… okay sure RWBY had that fighting game crossover with Blazblue but “American anime-like” with Japanese-anime-like fighting game makes sense. RWBY x Justice league is just a huge mismatch in style.


      As far as weird comic book crossovers go, I don’t think Usagi Yojimbo x TMNT is too far-fetched. They’re both Japanese-themed warrior animals after all. (TMNT x Batman was weirder IMO, but it makes sense when you recognize that the Foot-clan would probably work together with the League of Assassins and it makes sense for TMNT and Batman to work together to fight agains them).

      I’d have to go with… I dunno… Witchblade x Tomb Raider as a weird comic book crossover. The only real connection is that they’re scantily clad women, basically.
