In analysing the three fan communities that comprise SuperWhoLock fandom Booth offers the reader real insight into what being a fan is all about and the importance of technology, conventions and social media in bringing fans together. Focussing on this fascinating example of a crossover fan community, Booth highlights the continuing affection fans feel and reminds us that 21st century fandom is an industry with financial and cultural clout.' ? Lincoln Geraghty, University of Portsmouth, UK This book examines the fan-created combination of Doctor Who, Sherlock, and Supernatural as a uniquely digital fan experience, and as a metaphor for ongoing scholarship into contemporary fandom. 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 changing fan activities and texts. 410 0$aPalgrave pivot. 606 $aYouth$xSocial life and customs 606 $aCulture$xStudy and teaching 606 $aCommunication 606 $aEthnopsychology 606 $aYouth Culture 606 $aCultural Theory 606 $aMedia and Communication 606 $aCultural Studies 606 $aCross-Cultural Psychology 615 0$aYouth$xSocial life and customs. 615 0$aCulture$xStudy and teaching. 615 0$aCommunication. 615 0$aEthnopsychology. 615 14$aYouth Culture. 615 24$aCultural Theory. 615 24$aMedia and Communication. 615 24$aCultural Studies. 615 24$aCross-Cultural Psychology. 676 $a306.083 700 $aBooth$b Paul$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01064858 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255238803321 996 $aCrossing Fandoms$92541228 997 $aUNINA
