The original series of stories I wrote for the Parodyverse, which introduce one of the Parodyverse's greatest villains, and culminate in the cosmic melodrama of the First Coming of Galactivac, the Living Death that Sucks.

The adventures of the Parodyverse's mightiest heroes - such as they are. These adventures loosely follow on from the Hood Chronicles above. If anything will give you an idea of what the Parodyverse is about it's these, I'm afraid.

The culture clash of two superhero societies, and the adventures of the mightiest hero of two worlds.

The longest saga in the long history of long Parodyverse sagas.

A murdered 1930s gangster returns as an undead in the modern day to reclaim his criminal empire.

The dark history and sinister destiny of Herringcarp Asylum and its principal victims.

All the stuff that doesn't easily fit into other sections is right here.
