10 Surprising Comic Book Crossovers That Somehow Work

3. Infestation

Another IDW crossover now, and one that admittedly makes next to no sense. Be that as it may, Infestation is still great fun.

Clearly conceived of as a means for the publisher to assemble all their licenses under one comic, the book sees the worlds of G.I. Joe, Star Trek, Transformers and Ghostbusters collide as a result of some cosmic zombie vampire invasion scenario. Yep, you heard that right - and the best part? It all somehow makes sense.

Honestly it does.

G.I. Joe, Star Trek, Transformers and Ghostbusters all possess enough lore in each respective license to sustain dozens of comics, so to throw all four into the mix together is actually pretty epic.
