The Parodyverse sprang to life as humorous exchanges on the Comicboards Avengers Message Board, and soon graduated to a full-blown community of folks writing about the fictional superhero adventures of their poster-namesakes.

Details of most of these characters and their situations are found in The Who's Who of the Parodyverse.

Most archived works are found in the directories for 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010,. 2011, 2012, 2013+

Exceptions for some earlier work are instead found under writings for a particular author, accessed through the Links Page.

If any poster would prefer not to have their work featured here just let me know.

Below is a fairly random collection of surviving early items, in only a very vaguely chronological and thematic order. Anybody with too much time on their hands is welcome to send me a revised page with a better running order.
