* ''ComicBook/AtariForce'''s "Mission: Phoenix", the comic book story that was included with the UsefulNotes/{{Atari 2600}} version of ''{{VideoGame/Phoenix}}'', was originally scripted as a story for the spinoff arcade game ''Liberator'', with the Malaglon originally resembling frogs.

* [[http://danarchy.youfailit.net/Spiderman/ These remixes]] of the ''Amazing Franchise/SpiderMan'' newspaper strip were done by Jay Pinkerton.

* [[http://www.mightygodking.com/ Christopher Bird]] is known for his Remixes, including ''the entire ComicBook/CivilWar miniseries,''(deservedly) ridiculing the storyline while heavily [[{{Flanderization}} flanderizing]] some characters (Wolverine, for example, is only able to speak in combinations of the words "[[AudibleSharpness snikt]]" and "bub").

* Several of the ''ComicBook/ChickTracts'' have had this done to them.
* The mini-comic that came with the first wave of ''Anime/TransformersArmada'' toys has become a milestone in MemeticMutation history thanks to TF fan Matt Marshall (aka Blueshift/Yartek/Mr. Turtlewind). Originally stuffed with the same (highly edited) dialogue in three languages, the speech bubbles now tell the story of the mentally-impaired but well-meaning Autobot Hot Shot's quest for something known only as "[=JaAm=]" while Optimus Prime wonders where his feet are and Cyclonus tries to figure out just what the hell his alt-mode is supposed to be. The resulting phenomenon has inspired fanart, kitbashes, and gone so far as to be [[AscendedMeme referenced on the packaging for a new Hot Shot toy]], which also has the numberplate 'JAAM'.

** It isn't exactly known when Doraemon remix community in Vietnam emerged, but we do know that the 2011-2014 period is considered the GoldenAge of the community, with remix competitions, compilations, [[{{Fanon}} remixes that serve as original stories]], and even {{Fanvid}}s on Website/YouTube using frames sourced from the scans. Heck, there were a handful of Website/{{Facebook}} pages created solely for sharing and/or creating remixes! Unfortunately, most of them no longer exist, though [[https://facebook.com/nguyenlieudoremon one]][[note]]This page is well-known amongst the remix community, due to them having a large repository of frames yanked straight from the scans that can be used to create remixes.[[/note]] still remains today.

* ''Manga/ChainsawMan'' had an unofficial Brazilian "scanlation" that was often profane and politically incorrect, and became very popular before the official version came out in 2020. Unfortunadely, some of its fans took [[InternetJerk the wrong way to express their frustration that the anime's dub did now draw from it]], even making Future Devil dubber Creator/GuilhermeBriggs [[WhyFandomCantHaveNiceThings quit social media after being harrassed.]]

** Editora Abril, the official publisher of [[ComicBook/DisneyMouseAndDuckComics Disney comics]] in Brazil from 1950 to 2018, has also adopted this practice for some time. In the early 1960s, [[BreakoutCharacter José Carioca got his own comic book]] in Brazil, with new stories entirely made by the newly formed team of Brazilian Disney artists. Things went fine during the first few numbers, but, since the team was still small, it soon became clear they could not properly keep up with the demand of a bi-weekly comic book and needed a quicker, easier alternative for making more José Carioca stories. The (very unusual) solution for this problem was redrawing US-made comics that originally starred Mickey Mouse or Donald Duck, by replacing the main character with José, adapting the dialogues accordingly and ocasionally substituting the nephews with José's own nephews, Zico and Zeca. The resulting stories were visually convincing, but removed much of José Carioca's personality, turning him into a [[TheGenericGuy generic character]], so that he could be easily adapted into any type of story for filling up the pages of his comic book. Unsurprisingly, Brazilian fans [[DorkAge are not fond of this period]] and mockingly refer to it as ''Zé Fraude'' ("Fraud José"). Thankfully, by the end of the decade, the Brazilian team of Disney artists had already expanded and was fully able to make brand-new stories starring José Carioca and other characters, without having to resort to any type of adaptation. This allowed José to have his personality again and made way for the creation of his own universe in the comics, with new supporting characters and distinctive storylines.

* ''WebComic/DysfunctionalFamilyCircus'' may have been the ultimate Remix Comic, spawning a community that generated countless remixed captions for 500 Bil Keane ''ComicStrip/TheFamilyCircus'' strips, until Keane's publisher, King Features Syndicate, told DFC webmaster Greg Galcik to stop. During its run, DFC developed a complete set of tropes and in-jokes all its own- most of them as offensive as possible.

** Added bonus: ''ComicStrip/PearlsBeforeSwine'' is an "offical" version of this. Sometimes copy/pasting wholesale, other times just using the characters.

* Perhaps the most prominent example is Manga/{{Doraemon}} remixes in UsefulNotes/{{Vietnam}}. Due to [[GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff Vietnam having lots and lots of devoted Doraemon fans]], it is no surprise that the country has left a vast library of remixes.

* Remixes of Webcomic/QuestionableContent are sometimes posted to the [[https://old.reddit.com/r/questionablecontent/ /r/questionablecontent/ subreddit]]. In particular, Reddit user [[https://old.reddit.com/user/Squirrelclamp/submitted/ Squirrelclamp has posted]] over 180 satirical remixes as of 2022-04, usually of that day’s comic.

* Parts of ''ComicBook/TheSmurfs'' comic book stories and [[WesternAnimation/TheSmurfs the cartoon show]] were used for the ''Fanfic/EmpathTheLuckiestSmurf'' story "Smurfed Behind: The Departure".

* ''[[http://www.darksimpsons.com/ Dark Simpsons]]'' uses uncaptioned, unedited screenshots of ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'' to tell stories filled with BlackComedy, tragedy, revenge, homicide, etc.
