It sounds awesome. Except when you consider the Dark Tower equivalent is robots in Doctor Doom costumes throwing Snitches that are marked as something like "JKR-class Snitch, Harry Potter model." I'm not making that up. No one knows what it means, since the one from the latest time period was from the mid-80s.
Okay, Doombots with Snitches is kinda cool when you consider the metatextual qualities of the series. Hammering us over the head with it (there's also a few paragraphs of "they look like a bad guy from the Fantastic Four comic!" by the heroes from Earth) is not. Nor is the whole thing coming down to sacrificing main characters to save Stephen King from being run over by a van.
