* '' {{spoiler|[[Curvy]]}}'': A normal teenage girl has a run-in with a girl from a world made entirely of candy.

Line 82:
** Alternatively: Science-themed future superheroes and supervillain go to college together, become friends. Told from the POV of the future supervillain.
** Or, a story not unlike ''[[The Matrix]]'' meets ''[[Terminator (franchise)|The Terminator]]'', that makes less sense than ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]''.

* {{spoiler|''[[Exterminatus Now]]''}}: In a world that's a [[Sonic the Hedgehog|video game series]] combined with a [[Warhammer 4000040,000|tabletop RPG]], four men take on cults and demons and survive thanks to [[Indy Ploy|pure dumb luck]].

* {{spoiler|''[[Family Man]]''}}: A Jewish christian atheist is hired to lecture on theology at an eighteenth century German university. The local librarian seems to be into the occult.

* {{spoiler|''[[Something *Positive]]''}}: A [[Deadpan Snarker]] plays tabletop games with his extraordinarily violent friends, one of whom owns a tech support/phone sex hotline. He gets given a cat who is over twenty years old, has no bones, and is recovering from chemotherapy. [[Loads and Loads of Characters]] come and go. He works on a catgirl comic (which is directly responsible for as many as five or six deaths) in his spare time.

* {{spoiler|''[[Star Guys]]''}}: Multicoloured roomates go about their daily lives. Several of them also have their own multicoloured stalkers.
