Parody
Identity Crisis was parodied in the six-part limited series Ambush Bug: Year None (July 2008 – January 2009), with ersatz "hero" Ambush Bug contacting Jean Loring and advising her of the surprise party for Ralph Dibny. The character mischievously suggests that Sue Dibny made unflattering comments about her and that she should put "a flea in her (Sue's) ear." Jean replies that she would do this herself.

Famous quotes containing the word parody:
“Why does almost everything seem to me like its own parody? Why must I think that almost all, no, all the methods and conventions of art today are good for parody only?”
—Thomas Mann (1875–1955)
“Pushkin’s composition is first of all and above all a phenomenon of style, and it is from this flowered rim that I have surveyed its seep of Arcadian country, the serpentine gleam of its imported brooks, the miniature blizzards imprisoned in round crystal, and the many-hued levels of literary parody blending in the melting distance.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
“Satire is a lesson, parody is a game.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
