... Might i suggest the WEB COMIC - ErfWorld - has an interesting matrix of magic-types and sub/ cross -types . . . the names of the near-Vancian magic -schools DO initially all seem whimsical -- really, like ALL of ErfWorld\\\'s \\\"wonderland\\\"- may look, at first.
... The deadly serious, in-depth characterisation and narrative soon belie the visual of a \\\"Babes-In-Toyland\\\" -whimsy, though the surrealism is studied, as the graphic novel proves to have more a calculated style that plys a tale full of the protagonist\\\'s Point Of View ... especially, he is constantly puzzled by pointlessly-Punning Synchronicities or Semblances {{that only he sees-}} mostly in charactures and signifiers parodying scraps of his world, focussing in elements of Mana/ or Magical- Relativity ...
{{-all is Punny and tangentially familiar, but mostly surreal, in the eyes of the key Xanathos-speed- Chessmaster / fish-out-of-water - Protagonist, who was a master-wargamer, drawn from Earth to serve rather than direct the tactical play of a fuedal lord\\\'s forces - in a real-alternate world version of his own obsessively crafted Fantasy-Role-Playing Games ...
- The at-least-slightly- Parallel- Worlds naturally echo with these arbitrarily ironic twists of refference, but in Erfworld, that is all-but-only appearant to the Hero [and an lone useen \\\"techno-wizard-of-Oz -behind the curtain\\\" - character, who seems to also spot the virtual ironies], Erfworld is only weird to One Who has both realities to compare --

--- Might i suggest [a meme to hunt down or sketch up], that The Authors imply & understand - that the Accessable Alternate Universe must have some kind of tangible Common-Ground, and, too, conversely, - a Traveller would never be a comfortable as a contrasting square-peg- figure in a round-peg-hole ground -- that that tensioned un/familiarity seen by Our Hero - may be typically liminal to meaning, the strangeness a sublime but saturate fractal friction or resonance, the \\\"Universal-Culture-Shock\\\" a blatant clang of jarring dischord, or subtle synaesthetic, saturate fringe of alienating semi-similarity across every experiential facet or texture of Awareness, in any other Alternity, perhaps...
... OOps, possessed by persiflage, \\\'till grabbed by an ear, by a surge of poetics, should be feet-up & dreaming . . .

Sorry, - that\\\'s all some fave theme to rave on, like quantum-logical phase-squared imaginary-values in \\\"All-Possible-Worlds\\\"-type Logical Philosophy ... an irrational surreal-realism in [guise of-] (SF&)F ... more of my neverending essay, as a philosopher ...

(-the Meme/s i\\\'m hoping to Trope here, in part, reducing to Occam\\\'s-Razor-ish axiomatics, -like: that there is: --> a Minimax of inevitable Truth & fact -in any Fiction, which is never entirely/ only/ always/ but: Imaginary nor False -- and must be so, in order to mean anything --- as i like to over- elucidate, myself, obviously, heh...)

Say, it\\\'d be aces, if anyone who might, would comment, here, if just to point a newbie to Tropes & Tropists of alike logos- legos, do tell ... - i\\\'m just post-halloween-party puttering, here, ... winding down an insomnia, and thus rambling more than usual, pardon me, *yawn* *heh*, btw...
