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.
