Summary: This game was a multiplayer first-person shooter game developed and published by Valve. this tory/game took place mid 1950s and centered around two feuding brothers who hired mercenaries to destroy their each others companies while protecting their own. These mercenary groups, for the purposes of the game, were named after the respective companies that employed their services: Reliable Excavation & Demolition or RED and Builders League United or Blu. Each group of mercenaries was made up one of nine classes: Scout, Soldier, Pyro, Demoman, Heavy, Engineer, Medic, Spy, and Sniper.Connections: I chose this game because of Scout.
Craft recipes for game items were made up of things that wouldn't normally make up a drink, such as a token, scrap metal, or radiation but they can hint at what the drink really contained. First, most liquid have a base of water. And second, it had to do with metal and radiation. That led me to think of deuterium. Deuterium was a stable isotope of hydrogen that can be used in nuclear reactors in the form of heavy water.
With that in mind, I was thinking that somehow the Team Fortress 2 universe accidentally discovered the speed formula that gave Jay Garrick powers and tested it on Scout. Now, who was Garrick- he was the first iteration of the speedster hero known as the Flash.
1. The Flash #1
Summary: This comic was created by Gardner Fox and Harry Lampert for DC Comics. In this story, Jay Garrick was at University running an experiment in regards to hard water. When the beakers containing hard water fall, Garrick was effected by the gas emanating from the containers. This gas effected Jay by giving him the ability to run at or near the speed of light. Being able fast allowed Jay to save his girlfriend Joan from almost getting hit by a car and rescuing her father when he was abducted by the 'faultless four.'
Connections: As was clearly seen in the above pictures of Jay Garrick, he wore a pair of blue pants sometime s with a lightning bolt on them and a red top of lightening bolt on the chest. The most iconic portion of his outfit was the helmet with the lightning bolts on the side. Why was this important? Because in the movie Batman Returns, at the masquerade, we see someone dressed up as the Flash. This means that the speedster superhero was the speedster superhero most well known in that universe.
2.Batman Returns
Summary: This 1992 file was directed by Tim Burton and distributed by Warners Bros. Oswald Cobblepot aka Penguin returned to Gotham in order to be avenged for being abandoned. First thing he did was to grab crooked businessman and blackmail him Max Shreck into helping. I'm sure Shreck was okay with this as it would give him cover with his own nefarious plan. This didn't help Selina Kyle, Shreck's secretary because when she found out and confronted Shreck, she was pushed out of a window. Selina survived the fall and vowed revenged dressing up in a catsuit and calling herself Catwoman. In the meantime, Oswald introduced himself to Gotham by rescuing the mayor's baby. Bruce Wayne/Batman was suspicious of both men After some investigation (finding out about the Red Triangle Gang) and speaking with Selina Kyle/Catwoman- he realized that his suspicions were correct. Batman/Bruce Wayne and Catwoman/Selina Kyle team up against the Penguin and Shreck.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batman_Returns#/media/File:Batman_returns_poster2.jpg
Connections: We all know that Batman defended the Gotham City. Gotham City didn't just exist in the Batman Universe.
Either the same city or an alternate version of Gotham can be seen throughout the multiverse. An example of the this can be seen in an episode of Sabrina The Teenage Wtich called "No Place Like Home." In the story, Hilda and Zelda were turned into penguins. Hilda then asked Zelda if she wanted to wreak havoc in Gotham. https://sabrinatheteenagewitch.fandom.com/wiki/No_Place_Like_Home
3. Sabrina The Teenage Witch: No Place Like Home
Summary: This show was created by Nell Scovell, produced by Paula Hart, and distributed by CBS Television. It starred Melissa Joan Hart as Sabrina Spellman who was a teenage girl that discovered she was a witch. In this particular episode turned 18 years old and her father invited her to live with him in Paris.At first, Sabrina said no because at home have been going well for her: Libby went to boarding school, Valerie planned to stay with her, and Mr. Kraft wasn't going to be the vice-principal. Sabrina's luck seemed to change. It turned out Valeria wasn't going to stay with her and that Mr. Kraft was going to the principal instead. To top it off, a friend of Harvey's just didn't like her. All of this caused Sabrina to move in with her father in Paris. It took Salem starting a war with Pluto to bring Sabrina home.Connections: The Sabrina in the television series lived in a city called Westbridge.
Another version of Sabrina lived in a town called Greendale and she would chum around with teens from other towns. One prime example of this was found in the comic Archie Happy 300.
4. Archie # 300 Party of the First IV
Summary: This comic was drawn by Dan DeCarlo and written by Frank Doyle. I don't know much about this story, save for the little bit I have read online, but I will explain what I've put together. It's a special day for Archie but it seems that all his friends have forgotten about it and were acting weird. Archie went home and found a note telling him to go to the gym at 8pm. Upon arriving at the gym, he discovered that his friends hadn't forgotten about this special day rather they were planning a celebration in his honor.https://archiecomics.fandom.com/wiki/Archie_Vol_1_300
Connections: Some of the celebrants at Archie's party include: Alex McCoy, Melody Valentine, Alan Mayberry, Alexander Cabot III, Alexandra Cabot, and Valerie Brown. https://www.comics.org/issue/105881/#697400 This group of people were not only Archie's friend, but members of the band Josie and the Pussycats. Josie and the Pussycats were famous in their own rights and could be found in a cartoon called Josie and the Pussycats.
5. Josie and the Pussycats
Summary: This series was created by Dan DeCarlo and Richard Goldwater. It was produced by Hanna Barbera Productions. Josie McCoy was the main character of the show and she had a dream. She wanted to be a world famous rock star. To reach her dream, she got a band together consisting of her, Melody Valentine, and Valerie Brown and with them won the Rockland County's Battle of the Bands. Now they travel the world playing gigs and having exciting adventures.
And now here's where I have to make some assumptions. I think that these two characters were related to John Cabot from Eight Adventures of Sherlock Holmes: Case of the Vampires Mark. John Cabot, I think exemplifies some of the darker characteristics of the twins. They were all shifty and scheming. John Cabot had an knowledge of vampire lore and Alexandra demonstrated witchcraft on occasion.
6. Eight Adventures of Sherlock Holmes: Case of the Vampires Mark
Summary: It was written by Bill Crider and published by Crossroad Press. The main characters in the story I am looking at were Sherlock Holmes, John Watson, and Bram Stoker went to 221B Baker Street to request Sherlock's help in a case having to do with a possible vampire mark on a little boy. This was believed because the people in the household were from Transylvania and steeped in the old legends. But the person behind the crime new this staged and preyed upon their beliefs. Sherlock deftly uncovered the truth and the criminal exposed.Connections: To move from this point, I am using Dr. John Watson.
He trained as a doctor and served in a war, but when his health turned for the worse- John retired. When he went looking for a flat to share, he met Sherlock and found they clicked. It took some time, but Watson eventually discovered that Sherlock was a consulting detective and thought it might be a good idea to document his work. Not that I'm saying Watson was in anyway dumb as he was a doctor, but when compared to Sherlock- Watson seemed a bit obtuse. And it's because of this I believe that Trevor Watson from The Play That Goes Wrong may be related to John Watson. Trevor Watson like John was a serious person who did his job well. And sometimes Trevor will miss a cue just like sometimes John would miss clues. Trevor fixed the set like Dr. Watson would heal a patient. If I haven't said enough to convince you- I don't know what else well.
B. The Play That Went Wrong
Summary: Mischief Theatre was a British Theatre Company that specialized in comedy. The artistic directors of the troupe were three men by the names of Henry Lewis, Jonathan Sayer, and Henry Shields. In The Play That Went Wrong, Cornley Polytechnic Drama Society set about putting on a play called The Murder at Haversham Manor written by Susie HK Brideswell. Unfortunately for them, things start going wrong even before the curtain rises. From then on, actors forget their lines, miss cues, and were even knocked out. The plays ending really brought the house down.https://theplaythatgoeswrong.fandom.com/wiki/Goes_Wrong_Extended_Universe_Wiki
