Line 19:
* ''Comments'': Not purely a fanfic, actually a PBP game on the [http://www.atomicthinktank.com Atomic Think Tank] forums for ''[[Mutants and Masterminds]]'', but excellently done and captures the spirit of the universe. Set after the end of ''Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog'' and features many background characters in fleshed-out form such as the Pink Pummeler, Bait and Switch, Conflict Diamond, Dead Bowie, and Fury Laika. An OOC thread with more backstage mechanics can be found [https://web.archive.org/web/20091210124551/http://www.atomicthinktank.com/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=31322 here].

* Recommended by Seiyaku
* ''Synopsis'': Oneshot, set from Act II on. Finding murder too inelegant, Dr. Horrible finds a different way to destroy Captain Hammer.
* ''Comments'': A hilarious and well written alternative to Doctor Horrible's response to the ELE's letter.

* Recommended by Maki P
* ''Synopsis'': What does Barney Stinson really do for a living? Why, of all places, did he decide to fulfill his community service hours at a homeless shelter? And why, oh why, does he seem to hate frozen yogurt so much?
Line 35:
''Stories focused on the romantic relationships between the cast.''

* Recommended by Somebody Else
* ''Pairings'': Dr. Horrible (Billy)/Penny
* ''Synopsis'': An AU oneshot in which Penny lives to pursue a relationship with Billy, it is a superb character study while seriously addressing the question "Wouldn't that whole super villainy thing complicate matters? A little bit?"
* ''Comments'': Not quite a dark or light fic, but stunningly written either way. Equally impressive is its Gen sequel, ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20130705204852/http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5164608/1/Dont_You_Know_Theres_A_War_On Don't You Know There's A War On]''.
** Unfortunately, the links for ''They Said It Couldn't Be Done'' and ''Don't You Know There's A War On'' appear to have been moved.
