Frasier Meets Columbo, with voice acting

June 29, 2024 10:08 AM

Back in October 2022, there was linked a fancomic where Frasier and Niles tried to hide Maris' (partly) accidental murder from Lt. Columbo. It's now been voice-acted (not by the original actors of course) and put on Youtube. (12 minutes)

Note: The comic in the first post was on Twitter. It's also on creator Joe Chouinard's website, so I linked to it there. I try not to link to Twitter or Reddit now unless absolutely necessary.

Also from Joe Chouinard, you might enjoy:
- Niles and Crane in Bloodborne
- the residents of Springfield participating in a fighting tournament
- and the ongoing series Clown Corps, about crime-fighting clowns

I hadn't seen the webcomic before, it's pretty neat. Hits all the beats of good Columbo episode.

The Web comic about the Simpsons was actually quite touching. It left me a bit verklempt.

In the Simpsons one Krusty comes back in from a fight with Bumblebee Man's stinger embedded in his ass. Bumblebee Man's dying act was to stab Krusty. In the ass. From hell's cold heart indeed.

For more crossovers that seem as though they were designed to satisfy an extremely narrow range of readers, see also "Just One More Thing, Mr. Anders", a cross over between Columbo and John "wildbow" McRae's serialized superhero web-novel Worm.
