Abstract
A contemporary sequel release in the cinema, an ongoing series of books, a TV series, comic books, webseries, computer games or all of these combined? Modern commercial franchises scatter themselves across multiple mediums to engage their audiences, but they also trade on a concept of 'officialness' This paper discusses the concept of canon and how it relates to fan content.
