Where there quotes you heard, and voice impressions back in the day?

I thought I should post this here as I originally planned to after asking Tomska this. But last year when I was at Comic Con in London, I happened to meet Tomska there and obviously got a autograph and other stuff like that.

However one of the questions I asked him was if Eddworld and Crash Zoom were in the same universe or not, as characters from both shows make a cameo appearance In the other.

If anyone wants to know, his response was "that was originally the plan, but then Eddsworld Beyond happened" I asked a follow up question where I asked "is that because beyond did something that contradicted lore in Crash Zoom or something?" And he responded "something like that."

If I had to guess what he means by that, it probably means that Matt and Tom had very different creative directions for the show and Matt didn't like the idea of Eddworld and Crash Zoom being in the same universe. or something like that. In just guessing based off what he said.

Before you ask, no I don't have any video proof of him saying this as I thought it might be pretty awkward doing so. If anyone else wants to ask him on video at a convention or something feel free to do that yourself though.

So yeah. Feel free to make your own Eddsworld and Crash Zoom crossovers since it's pretty much confirmed they kinda use to be in the same universe before Matt took over and eventually retconned it.

SO like any big fandom online, I'm well aware that Eddsworld has some fanon adult stuff that some people made, such as art and fanfics (Hell kid me saw this cause I had barely any internet supervision).

The thing is now that I'm 21 and just got back in the fandom after a whole ass decade, I'm basically really lost regarding this stuff. Obviously I know that the characters are basically now just their own beings and no longer associated with real people anymore, but it's due to the fact that they used to be slightly based on real people make me uncomfortable which is worsened when I learned how old the series was.

But I guess its seen as ok when its just the characters as long as there's no reference to any of the actual guys in real life?

Im just basically in lost, confused loop in regards to this type of fan content. I don't wanna attack anyone, I just don't know how to feel.
