Line 14:
* In [[The Randomverse|Marvel/DC: After Hours]] Season 2, [[The Joker]]'s plan is to make all comic book characters into [[Darker and Edgier]] characters. The Green Goblin however ends up pointing out that all that will lead to is [[Darkness-Induced Audience Apathy]] without [[Lighter and Softer]] heroes.
* While most of the campaigns in the ''[[Global Guardians PBEM Universe]]'' were standard [[Bronze Age]] fare, the ''Night Life In The Big Easy'' campaign, which featured a solo 1980s-style vigilante facing off against a voodoo-themed criminal empire that had been built on drugs, prostitution, and white slavery, was straight out of the [[Dark Age]].

* [[Equestria Chronicles]] is [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]] [[X Meets Y|meets]] [[Nineteen Eighty-Four]].
* [[Twilight of Equestria (roleplay)|Twilight of Equestria]] spins off from [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]] into a different world, one that is oh so much more sinister. Characters have contended with [[Zombie Apocalypse|zombie attacks]]. [[Our Demons Are Different|Demon ponies]] and [[Hybrid Monster|hybrid ponies]] fraternize with mutant ponies and your usual [[Fantasy Kitchen Sink|unicorns, pegasi, griffins, and zebras]]. Heroes from [[Incorruptible Pure Pureness|the really good]] to [[Grey and Gray Morality|the ambiguous]] grapple with [[Villains]] and [[Anti-Villains]] as they all try to understand what brought them together in the most unlikely of places...
* In [[Funny Or Die]]'s [http://FunnyOrDie.com/m/6h0b The Rugrats ''Live Action'' Movie]{{Dead link}} apparently Angelica is not just a selfish, spoiled child, but a murderous, manipulative sociopath.
* Parodied by [[The Onion]], with [http://www.theonion.com/articles/general-mills-gives-honey-nut-cheerios-bee-intense,28181/ this] ([[Poe's Law|fake]]) story about a cereal mascot getting a dark backstory.
