Crossing Fandoms : SuperWhoLock and the Contemporary Fan Audience

What do you get when you cross the cult shows *Doctor Who*, *Supernatural*, and *Sherlock*? In this book, Paul Booth explores the fan-created crossover universe known as *SuperWhoLock*-a universe where Sherlock Holmes and Dean Winchester work together to fight monsters like the Daleks and the Weeping Angels; a world where John Watson is friends with Amy Pond; a space where the unique brands of fandom interact. Booth argues that *SuperWhoLock* represents more than just those three shows-it is a way of doing fandom. Through interviews with fans and analysis of fan texts, *Crossing Fandoms: SuperWhoLock and the Contemporary Fan Audience* also demonstrates how fan studies in the digital age can evolve to take into account changingfan activities and texts.
