* [http://www.somethingawful.com/d/photoshop-phriday/comic-book-chaos.php This Something Awful article] features a number of remixed comic book covers. On the Something Awful forums, it's known as "Ruining the Moment".
Line 29 ⟶ 33:
** Circa 1969, [[DC Comics]] figured there was room for yet another knockoff of ''[[Archie]]'' on the stands... but instead of creating a new series, they took old stories from their ''[[Dobie Gillis]]'' licensed comic, redrew the main character likenesses and relettered the scripts to produce the "new" series ''Windy and Willy''.
** In the mid-'70s, ''[[Planet of the Apes]]'' suddenly became a hot property. [[Marvel Comics]] had a popular "Apes" series (in its black-and-white Marvel Magazines line). Marvel's British imprint, Marvel UK, eagerly followed suit with its own magazine, reprinting the American stories. But Marvel UK's "Apes" magazine was published ''weekly'', so they quickly ran out of American material to reprint. How then to fill the space? Marvel UK just took stories from Marvel's ''[[War of the Worlds]]''/Killraven feature (''very'' loosely inspired by H.G. Wells' original and never printed in the UK), rewrote the scripts and altered the art to turn Killraven's alien adversaries into apes. The result? Killraven became ''Apeslayer'', and Marvel UK could fill out the pages of its ''Planet of the Apes'' magazine for the rest of its run.

** Taking this in about as many directions as possible is ''[[Square Root of Minus Garfield]]''.
** There's also the Garfield Randomizer, which takes random panels from a vast library of Garfield comic strips and puts three of them together to form strips that are, as the theory goes, funnier than the originals. There's been copyright trouble over this one, as predicted, but those resourceful enough to look for it can probably find it.

* [http://danarchy.youfailit.net/Spiderman/ These remixes] of the ''Amazing [[Spider-Man]]'' newspaper strip were done by Jay Pinkerton.
* [http://3eanuts.com/ 3eanuts] simply removes the last panel of ''[[Peanuts]]'' strips. This tends to make them [[Crapsack World|extremely depressing.]]

* The mini-comic that came with the first wave of ''[[Transformers Armada]]'' toys has become a milestone in [[Memetic Mutation]] history thanks to TF fan Matt Marshall (aka Blueshift/Yartek/Mr. Turtlewind). Originally stuffed with the same (highly edited) dialogue in three languages, the speech bubbles now tell the story of the mentally-impaired but well-meaning Autobot Hot Shot's quest for something known only as [https://web.archive.org/web/20130424162724/http://www.redshirt.co.uk/tall-tales/armada-the-real-story/ '''JaAm'']. The resulting phenomenon has inspired fanart, kitbashes, and gone so far as to be referenced on the packaging for a new Hot Shot toy, which also has the numberplate 'JAAM'.
