* This occurs, in a sense, in ''ComicBook/TheLeagueOfExtraordinaryGentlemen''. Being a crossover of all (or "all") fiction, its protagonists and antagonists are similarly drawn from all over media and pitted against characters they never encountered in their original source material: the first volume has Literature/FuManchu and [[Literature/SherlockHolmes Professor Moriarty]] set against a team comprised of [[Literature/{{Dracula}} Mina Murray]], [[Literature/KingSolomonsMines Allan Quatermain]], [[Literature/TwentyThousandLeaguesUnderTheSea Captain Nemo]], [[Literature/DrJekyllAndMrHyde Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde]], and Literature/TheInvisibleMan, and in the second volume the League is up against the Martian invaders from ''Literature/TheWarOfTheWorlds''.

The third and fourth volumes retain only Allan and Mina as main characters, but pit them against variously Franchise/JamesBond, [[Theatre/TheThreepennyOpera Macheath]], and Tom Riddle and [[spoiler:Harry Potter]] from ''Franchise/HarryPotter''.

** The Beagle Boys and John Rockerduck are usually Scrooge's villains, but they also have to deal with Paperinik (Donald's superhero identity), and the Beagle Boys are also enemies of the Red Bat (''Fethry''[='=]s superhero identity).
** The Beagle Boys also would show up as opponents in some old Super Goof stories. Here, they are often portrayed just as regular crooks. One classic Super Goof story sees Super Goof even face off against the Big Bad Wolf, usually living in his own corner of the Disney comics universe.

** [[MadScientist Emil Eagle]] originally was made up to give Gyro Gearloose a criminal rival, but he later became a recurring character in Mickey Mouse comics by Paul Murry et al., mostly to explain how people like Idget the Midget and Dangerous Dan McBoo or [[PsychoForHire Pete]] could have sophisticated plans or super-science equipment; recent Italian stories put him as Super Goof's opponent in a relationship akin to Franchise/{{Superman}} and ComicBook/LexLuthor.

* A multicompany example with ''ComicBook/RedSonja''. Kulan Gath was created by Marvel comics for Conan the Barbarian's ongoing (specifically Creator/MichaelMoorcock of all people). However, he would go on to become Red Sonja's archenemy in both Marvel as well as Dynamite.

* In the past, it was common for ''Creator/HannaBarbera'' TV shows to get {{Comic Book Adaptation}}s. Many just retold stories straight from the episodes. But one story chose to feature Reducto, an antagonist of one episode of ''WesternAnimation/{{Birdman}}'' (and later a recurring character on ''WesternAnimation/HarveyBirdmanAttorneyAtLaw''), fight ''WesternAnimation/TheHerculoids''.

* [[CatsAreMean Petey the Cat]] made his debut in ''ComicBook/SuperDiaperBaby 2: The Invasion of the Potty Snatchers'', but he is far better known for being in the ''[[ComicBook/DavPilkeyDogMan Dog Man]]'' series.

* In ''Comicbook/SonicTheHedgehogArchieComics'' series, the Dark Legion - a group of villainous Echidnas - was originally created to serve as enemies of Knuckles, acting as the central antagonists of his spin-off. However, after the "Enerjak Reborn" arc in the main series (several years after the ''Knuckles'' spin-off was cancelled), the Legion allied with Sonic's ArchEnemy Dr. Eggman and began serving as his personal army. Therefore, they can be seen as much Sonic and the Freedom Fighters' enemies as Knuckles'.
* Done intentionally in ''[[Comicbook/{{Fables}} The Great Fables Crossover]]'' in which Snow White and Bigby Wolf deal with Literals, antagonists of ''Fables'' spin-off series ''Jack of Fables'', while Jack, who clashed with them all the time until this point, doesn't move a finger to help.
* Happens in the ComicBook/DisneyMouseAndDuckComics:
** [[MadScientist Emil Eagle]] originally was made up to give Gyro Gearloose a criminal rival, but he later became a recurring character in Mickey Mouse comics by Paul Murry et al., mostly to explain how people like Idget the Midget and Dangerous Dan McBoo or [[PsychoForHire Pete]] could have sophisticated plans or super-science equipment; recent Italian stories put him as Super Goof's opponent in a relationship akin to Franchise/{{Superman}} and ComicBook/LexLuthor.
** The Beagle Boys and John Rockerduck are usually Scrooge's villains, but they also have to deal with Paperinik (Donald's superhero identity), and the Beagle Boys are also enemies of the Red Bat (''Fethry''[='=]s superhero identity).
** The Phantom Blot is mainly Mickey's foe, but has scuffled with others from time to time.
** ''ComicBook/{{Ultraheroes}}'' has this in spades, with the heroes mostly 'borrowing' their rivals from Paperinik. The main exception is Paperinika (Daisy's super hero alter ego), as she already [[ItsPersonal had it personal with Sapphire]].
** ''ComicBook/DarkwingDuck'' features several Duck comics and ''Franchise/DuckTales'' villains such as Phantom Blot, John D. Rockerduck and Magica de Spell.

* ''Franchise/{{Transformers}}'' comics had, across several separate continuities, stories in which ''Franchise/GIJoe'' villain Serpentor is somehow involved, usually with him transferring his mind to a robot body and becoming a threat to Cybertronians, sometimes even becoming a recurring character.
* This occurs, in a sense, in ''ComicBook/TheLeagueOfExtraordinaryGentlemen''. Being a crossover of all (or "all") fiction, its protagonists and antagonists are similarly drawn from all over media and pitted against characters they never encountered in their original source material: the first volume has Literature/FuManchu and [[Literature/SherlockHolmes Professor Moriarty]] set against a team comprised of [[Literature/{{Dracula}} Mina Murray]], [[Literature/KingSolomonsMines Allan Quatermain]], [[Literature/TwentyThousandLeaguesUnderTheSea Captain Nemo]], [[Literature/DrJekyllAndMrHyde Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde]], and Literature/TheInvisibleMan, and in the second volume the League is up against the Martian invaders from ''Literature/TheWarOfTheWorlds''.
* General Tara was an enemy of ''ComicStrip/ThePhantom'', but his ''Legenderry'' counterpart is the military dictator of ''Franchise/{{Zorro}}'''s homeland. Since he only appears as part of a LegionOfDoom which both Phantom and Zorro oppose, this doesn't make a huge difference. [[Literature/TheIslandOfDoctorMoreau Dr Moreau]] is also a member of the Legion, but the heroes do not included a version of Prendick.
