Electrocutioner's Song was a deeply confusing Classic LNH crossover. It involved Jef The KaTeFan's Halls Jordan and Cliche Dude, Scav's 501 Blues: Rattler Hide Special, wReam's Ultimate Ninja and Dave Van Domelen's Crisis of Infinite Clones, along with a Z-Team Special written by Jef.

Plot

The evil renegade from the past, Table, finds Plot-Error Man in the wreckage of the Cosmic Plot Device Caper, and uses him to resurrect his beloved Chair. The Z-Team has been hired by a mysterious benefactor to take out the Ultimate Ninja. Manga Man, working for Table, inflitrates the LNH. Sig.File Man looks for SideKick Man in vain. Mister Minister commands an army of Marvel Zombie Lads.

Sufferyng plots with Acton Lord – but is it PrimeClone Acton Lord, Golden Age Acton Lord or wReamed Acton Lord? Who is the Electrocutioner? What is the secret of Taskani? Plus, the Fan.dom of the Alt.ra! Lagneto and the Netter Liberation Front! Crossover Queen and the X-Over Men! And a set of one-of-a-kind not-valuable-in-the-slightest collectible trading cards!

Legacy

Electrocutioner's Song set up and/or developed a lot of elements which would be important in their respective characters' works. The tension between Rebel Yell and Lurking Girl over Lurking Lass would become the main driver of the next chapter of 501 Blues; Ultimate Ninja's struggles with leadership would be a major theme of his series; and Sig.Lad's destabilization, the multiple Acton Lords, and the appearance of the Sword of Sig set up plot elements that would be crucial in Constellation and Dvandom Force.
