on the second release of the Rifftrax version, they used Zion’s Hybrid as their source, including his remaster of the crawl.
Ah, that could be what I’m thinking of.

Yeah, that was me that was surprised. RiffTrax’s Holiday Special riff was audio-only for years, and then they released a VOD version, which I purchased and then realized was sourced from my v1 HS release. I suspected it immediately because the crawl looked exactly like mine, so it was both surprising and kinda cool to see something I made was kinda sorta officially released. (I posted about that somewhere in this thread I believe.) Several years later, they released an improved HS VOD which I don’t think was sourced from one of my releases, but from someone else’s release that included my v1 crawl. That’s the version they still have up I believe.
The crawl itself existed well before any of my releases and was present on the version RiffTrax originally riffed. I guess at this point we’re just not sure who originally made it and when.
EDIT: Some images of my crawls and the one mine was based on…
