Abstract
This introduction to Crossing Fandoms describes SuperWhoLock—a fan-created amalgam of the television series Supernatural, Doctor Who, and Sherlock—as a symbol of contemporary digital fandom. Fans have created SuperWhoLock from the characters and narratives of the three cult texts. The consequences of today’s mainstreaming of fandom means that fan work is more popular than ever. Yet, even as these three shows’ universes create unique canon ideas, they still must stay tethered to the original text(s) in specific and meaningful ways. Thus, SuperWhoLock is not just a fan text; it is also a particular practice from which we are able to discern fan work in the digital age.
