In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Crossover” is an epic card of the Memes World series 74, number 22032 of the collection, and the 11th best-known meme of its 300 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.
What does the “Crossover” meme mean?
This term captures the inevitable logic of collective creativity: if two characters exist, fans will eventually unite them. It is used to describe a hybrid work or predict that a meeting between different franchises is unavoidable. It reflects optimism about communities breaking canonical barriers, often linked to Rule 34 as a thematic cousin.
Where does the “Crossover” meme come from?
The exact internet origin of 'crossover' as a specific meme is unknown. The Know Your Meme entry, published April 22, 2013, and updated October 9, 2026, cites 'Sherlock Holmes Arrives Too Late' as the historical starting point in 1906. This refers to a short story by Maurice Leblanc in the French magazine Je Sais Tout, unofficially pitting Sherlock Holmes against Arsène Lupin. While an early example of universe fusion, the term evolved to specifically denote fan productions merging distinct franchises. The associated rule posits that no combination is too absurd to appear one day.
How to use the “Crossover” meme
