'''Remix
From another perspective, as the [[Stick Figure Comic]] and [[Sprite Comic]] tropes show, being unable to draw is not an impediment to pushing your own brand of funny on the world. Thanks to the '''Remix Comic''', neither is the inability to come up with your own characters.
Line 13:
Usually remixes are made by fans. They are also known as Strip Slaying, Rescripting or Fanmixing.

▲{{examples}}
== [[Comic Books]] ==
* [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 34:
* The website [http://www.japanator.com/elephant/index-short.phtml?t=yotsubato Japanator] has taken to editing [[Yotsubato]] comics to discuss things like the anime industry, the popularity of [[Moe]], and...other things. [[Cheerful Child]], indeed.
== [[Newspaper Comics]] ==
* ''[[wikipedia:Dysfunctional Family Circus|The Dysfunctional Family Circus]]'' may have been the ultimate Remix Comic, spawning a community that generated countless remixed captions for 500 Bil Keane ''[[Family Circus]]'' strips, until Keane's publisher, King Features Syndicate, told DFC webmaster Greg Galcik to stop. During its run, DFC developed a complete set of tropes and in-jokes all its own- most of them as offensive as possible.
** There are also ''[http://jerseycircus.blogspot.com/ Jersey Circus]'' and ''[http://www.losanjealous.com/nfc/ The Nietzsche Family Circus]'', which use ''[[Jersey Shore]]'' and random [[Friedrich Nietzsche|Nietzsche]] quotes, respectively.
Line 44:
* [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.]]
== Other ==▼
* Several [[Jack Chick]] scripts have had this done to them. eg [https://web.archive.org/web/20170422213836/http://www.epsilonminus.com/darquedungeon]▼
* 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 [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'.▼
