As a fan of subversive comedy, I tend to gravitate to parodies more than any other subgenre. They best tend to tell the truth without the consumer knowing. One of the most memorable stories that come to mind, is Dr. Horrible’s Sing Along Blog. This told a typical superhero story but through the supposed villain’s eyes.
