''Superidol'' is a [[Web Comic]] written for [https://web.archive.org/web/20131105114155/http://www.artbomb.net/home.jsp artbomb.net] by [[Warren Ellis]] and illustrated by Colleen Doran. Leon, a reporter for a pop culture magazine tells what he sees in a "post-[[Final Fantasy[[, post-[[William Gibson]], post-post-ironic western society" where pop culture had run dry and [[J-POPPop]] was beginning to catch on. The new international sensation is Rei Rei, a computer-generated [[Idol Singer]] whose voice was made from 200 voice samples. ([[Vocaloid|Er, sound familiar?]]) She becomes a phenomenon, a hit with the magazines and on the internet. Everyone wants to be her, boys and girls alike. What happens when a meme complex becomes self-aware?
