* ''[[Franken Fran]]'', of course, has a stab at this in chapter 39. The Twist, which is either [[Dead Baby Comedy|hilarious]] or [[Nightmare Fuel|horrifying]], is that instead of zombies, the infected victims turn into {{spoiler|rabid living amusement park mascots}}
** ''Franken Fran'' gets in on this again in chapter 47, with more traditional-style Romero zombies and a small parody of ''[[Dawn of the Dead (film)|Dawn of the Dead]]''. Notably, after being bitten by a zombie and examining the effects (by decapitating herself and remotely dissecting her own body, because [[Mad Scientist|that's how Fran rolls]]), Fran discovers that {{spoiler|the victims are actually alive and [[And I Must Scream|entirely aware during their zombie condition but unable to control themselves]], and that the zombie plague is easily reversible with the right treatment - ''but nobody knows this,'' and have used the zombie outbreak as an excuse to go on rampaging kill-sprees}}.
