I would call that kind of crossover crack -- or monkey crack. It's the very premise that's ludicrous: complete absurdity, without anything in the way of real drama or serious character development.
"Crack" fic is generally fic with an absurd premise, played for laughs, or at least not for being taken seriously.
Isn't that much of the Discworld series? It developed its own consistent logic over time. But the early ones never let logic get in the way of a good pun or a good punchline.
Well, yeah, Discworld is often played for laughs. And most Discworld crossovers are, as well.
OK, found a hilarious Avengers fic, re: various peoples problems with clothes
sam_storyteller is wonderful

Ah, man--if only I had a reason to set a fic in 80s Britain and have someone flip up some article on top of their TV feed and research the news, or something.
And then everyone would yell NO INTERNET!!! And then I could yell TELETEXT!!!
And we'd laugh, and laugh, and be best friends. It would be great.
It's not as cool as when Amy writes a story related to my fic
Aw! Her story was sweet -- Dean's voice, at least in the beginning, was really dead on.
Thanks Connie! Not only was that story hilarious, it led me to this one that I hadn't read yet: [link]
