Unusual equals fun
A Spider in the gate - by Lady Russell Holmes This fic, though unfortunately unfinished, crosses Spider-man with Stargate sg-1. It has a great sense of action, and also has that mystery I-want-to-know-what's-going-on feeling. Story: During one of his webswinging routes Spider-man gets a bit more then he bargained for as he meets a very strange hostage. 7.5 out 10. Hard to say because it is unfinished.
Equinoxium - by Lisette If you haven't read this fic yet, you should start now. It crosses Buffy the vampire slayer with Lord of the rings Though it is as of today a work in progress, it is rapidly drawing to a close. This has everything you'd want in a fic, intriguing storytelling, a great plot (with some surprises) and wonderful character exploration.
Story: "For the Powers That Be, the Balance is the Key and the Slayer is their tool. As such, they will do anything to restore the Balance on one world and retain it on another - no matter the cost". 10 out 10
Not sure how this can get any better.

I just read part of "Spider in the Gate" and I have to say that it is not that good. Sure, it's structure is good as is its grammar, but...the things it does. It's got a mysterious girl whom main characters fawn over, the dumbing down of Spider-man (Like he doesn't know how to handle a normal hostage situation) and the gratuitous powering up of Daniel Jackson (because no one without a mutant power is able to understand that many languages through their own human inteligence!). That last one really gets me, giving Daniel unneeded angst. Overall, it's just an average fanfic.
I must admit seeing a crossover that involved both Stargate and Spiderman (2 of my favourite shows) had me going yay. But I must agree with you that the plot itself is not very credible. The 7.5 out of 10 still stands.
