Line 427:
* ''[[The Order of the Stick]]'' affectionately parodies the third edition of Dungeons and Dragons, as well as many Fantasy tropes.
* ''[[Sluggy Freelance]]'' does this quite a bit. ''[[Star Trek]]'' and ''[[Alien (franchise)|Alien]]'' in [http://www.sluggy.com/daily.php?date=970929 "The Sci-Fi Adventure"], ''[[Voltron]]'' and ''[[Star Wars]]'' in [https://web.archive.org/web/20120109053757/http://www.sluggy.com/daily.php?date=010611 "GOFOTRON Champion of the Cosmos"], ''[[World of Warcraft]]'' and other [[Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game|MMORPGs]] in [https://web.archive.org/web/20090104102655/http://beta.sluggy.com/daily.php?date=080728 "Years of Yarncraft"], ''[[Harry Potter (novel)|Harry Potter]]'' in [http://www.sluggy.com/daily.php?date=020902 the] [https://web.archive.org/web/20030922090613/http://www.sluggy.com/daily.php?date=030915 "Torg] [http://www.sluggy.com/daily.php?date=050822 Potter"] [http://sluggy.com/daily.php?date=080305 stories], at least to begin with.
* ''[[The Noob]]'' is a very insightful parody of [[Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game|MMORPG]]s and the people that play them.
* ''[[Supermegatopia]]'' is a [[Fan Service|cheesecake laiden]] parody of '''every superhero in existence.''' Highlights include Ferret Man (a combination expy of [[Batman]] and [[The Punisher]] -- [[Oh Crap]]!), Buxom Gal (an expy of Power Girl, right down to the costume, except Buxom Gal's powers are tied to her [[Breast Expansion|ever increasing bust size]]), Avatar (she's a god/dess! She doesn't know which one she is at any given time, but she has alien technology to help her prove her point).
** In addition, "Crushed: The Doomed Kitty Adventures" parodies sword-and-sorcery fantasy games in general, but on-line RPG gaming in particular (such as the Temple of Infinite Lives and Crushed having to trek back to her body to retrieve her gear).
