So I was perusing Superworld (based on the same system as Elric/Stormbringer, Call of Cthulhu, and so many more now "BRP" system. )
Has anyone considered running the beginning of a game as themed tightly to a CoC game set in the modern era, then switches gears as a Cthulhu-esque origin story for supers (and tossing in actual Cthulhu low end monsters, cults, and the like as villains? I realize it is a bait-and-switch which, I'd only do after letting players know that the game after the first adventure will change considerably thematically, and I'd inform them of it framed in the latter terms. I was just curious since there is some cross-compatibility int the two games.
