Just Out of Curiosity, What Have Buffy and Angel Been Linked Too?
Within the show’s run and in other official canon material, Buffy and Angel have had crossover links to:
The Wild Bunch, Dracula, National Lampoon’s Vacation, The Lord of the Rings, Aliens, Buckaroo Banzai, The X-Files, Evil Dead, Neil Gaiman’s Sandman, Doctor Who, and Godzilla. The “Expanded Universe” Material (Dark Horse Comics before Season 8, the IDW comics, Licensed Novels) add:

Buffy and Angel also have two products that show up regularly in fiction.
Tumblr media
One is Sugar Bombs or Chocolate Frosted Sugar Bombs, which appear in Calvin and Hobbes, Marvel’s Runaways (featuring Nico Minoru, Karolina Dean, Chase Stein, Gert Yorkes, Molly Hayes, Old Lace, Xavin. Victor Mancha, and The Swarm), and The Incredibles 2. They also show up in the videogame series Fallout, but that is most likely an alternate universe. Morley Cigarettes are the other product that has a good travel life, enough to have its own Wikipedia Page. As such, I’ll only mention a few notable cases: Joy Ride 2: Dead Ahead, Murder in the First, Platoon, Psycho (1960), The World’s End (2013), 24, American Horror Story “Birth”, The Americans, Beverly Hills 90210 (1990s series), Burn Notice, Californication, Cold Case, Criminal Minds, CSI: NY, Curb Your Enthusiasm, The Dick Van Dyke Show, ER, Everybody Hates Chris, Friends, Heroes, Jake 2.0, Judging Amy, Justified, Lost, Malcolm in the Middle, Medium, Millennium, Mission: Impossible (TV Series), Nash Bridges, NCIS, New Amsterdam, Orange is the New Black, Pushing Daisies, Reaper, Seinfeld, Space: Above and Beyond, The Strain, That 70s Show, The Walking Dead, Twin Peaks, Warehouse 13, Weeds, System Shock 2, and The Twilight Zone “Nightmare at 20,000 Feet”. Obviously, some of these would be alternate universes. Finally, there are two notable parody examples to bring up: Vampirella vs. Fluffy. Vampirella has had a LOT of crossovers, so she’s one step removed from Buffy at best, ergo, they probably met and given the tone of the comic, Vampi did not leave too happy with Buffy’s remarks about her outfit, or Willow. Big Wolf on Campus actually provides a rather respectful crossover, and all things considered, the title character likely met Faith before she came to Sunnydale if taken as a proper crossover. Totaling things up, Buffy the Vampire Slayer (and Angel) have had 10 nods to the Cthulhu Mythos, 7 crossovers with Dracula, 5 with Frankenstein and Sherlock Holmes, 4 with Ghostbusters, and 3 with Doc Savage, Solomon Kane, Evil Dead/Army of Darkness, The X-Files, and Hellboy. And all that from just Buffy and Angel. Can you imagine what you find when you got a link further than that? Or two links? Six? 
To give a hint: The Mythos can add over 200 works, Dracula 160+, 79 from Frankenstein, 17 from Ghostbusters, 24 from Hellboy, 29 from Evil Dead, and 51 from The X-Files. There is a lot of overlap, of course, but it still sets a good idea of just how big this world is. Now, all Buffy needs is a crossover with Batman, and she’ll have hit the all the major crossover series.

What better way to kick off the week of Halloween than with a #MonsterMonday? Today, we’re joining Dagar the Invincible, the lovely Lora-Lei, her brother Lopoff (a werewolf), and the monstrous Danfroth, who apparently just wants a friend.
This issue was published in 1974, but the series began in 1972. Published by Western Publishing’s Gold Key Comics imprint, the comic was the brainchild of author Donald F. Glut (1944 - ) and illustrator Jesse Santos (1928- 2013), an artist from the Philippines who began his comics career in 1946 with a feature in issue #1 of Halakhak Komiks, the first Filipino comic book. This particular issue was #8 in a series of promotional ‘Dan Curtis giveaways’ issued by Western Publishing. While Glut and Santos would partner together for other comics series published by Gold Key Comics, such as The Occult Files of Doctor Spektor and Tragg and the Sky Gods. Dagar’s storyline ended in 1976 after eighteen issues. Both creators would later take up careers in animation and children's entertainment, though only one would later retire from the field to take up a new life as a lounge singer.
This item is Pam 2017.1286 in the Hagley Library’s collection of trade catalogs and pamphlets. Due to copyright restrictions, it can only be viewed online from on site, but you can view other comic books in our collection now by visiting this collection in our Digital Archive.

May 16
Doctor Adam Spektor is an occult investigator, dealing with various occult menaces, such as mummies, vampires, werewolves, and more. He is aided by Lakota Rainflower, his Sioux secretary, along with several semi-recurring assistants. For a time Spektor became a werewolf. Dr. Spektor is a skilled investigator of the occult, and very knowledgeable about the lore of the paranormal. After his first appearance in a 10-page story in Mystery Comics Digest #5 (May 16, 1972), Dr. Spektor was spun off into his own title, The Occult Files of Doctor Spektor.
