Line 7:
A reinvention is not a [[crossover]], though its development might be influenced by an external source, paralleling without crossing over into that specific source. For example, if magic of the sort seen in the Harry Potter stories existed in a Dariaverse, but Hogwarts, Harry Potter, and so forth did not exist there, then the subsequent tale about [[Daria]] and company learning magic at [[Lawndale High]] could be considered a reinvention.
 
[[Roentgen]]’s [[Legion of Lawndale Heroes]] series, currently continued by [[Brother Grimace]], has usually been called a [[crossover]] as it describes how things might have gone if the ''Daria'' characters had gained the powers of the DC Comics Legion of Superheroes (teenage heroes in the far future). However, as not one of the actual DC heroes or settings appears in the story, only the heroes’ superpowers, the story is more properly called a reinvention. In the same vein, [[IsauchelliLsauchelli]]’s work-in-progress “[[Eldritch Evolution]],” which recasts ''Daria'' in the style of the TV series ''Heroes,'' is also a reinvention. In contrast, [[Richard Lobinske]]’s [[Daria Von Doom Series]] and [[TAG]]’s “[[Outcasts from Beyond]]” are true [[crossovers]], not reinventions.
