There's a bunch of these crossovers, apparently.

I imagine Picard interacting with Smith's Who going much like putting up with Q, but with more fish fingers and custard.

    I grew up in the 80s and 90s where media companies were getting ever more protective of their intellectual property rights and burning most projects that even had a whiff of their ideas or characters.

    Certainly film and TV adaptations of any major series had so much editorial oversight that even Easter eggs had to be covertly left in the final product.

    Videogame adaptations allowed developers a certain leeway, with some canon being broken or added .

    Comics though... fuck me. Historically they have always been the wild west, with rights holders being like "you know what, fuck it, go crazy" and the results are beautiful.
