| Barry Trotter | comment |
Barry Trotter is a series of Harry Potter parodies written by Michael Gerber. The Harry Potter series are taken as a heavily censored version of the life of Barry Trotter. The story takes place long after the trio have "finished" their education at the Hogwash School of Wizardry and Witchcrap.The first book in the series is Barry Trotter and the Shameless Parody. It follows Barry Trotter, Lon Measly and Ermine Cringer as they do their best to stop the making of The Movie of the series of books about Barry's school life, written in-universe by J.G. Rollins.The second book is Barry Trotter and the Unnecessary Sequel, in which Barry becomes headmister of Hogwash after the previous one died.The third book is Barry Trotter and the Dead Horse, a Prequel within a Sequel, wherein Barry undergoes hypnotherapy to relive the memories of his time at Hogwash in order to find a cure for the arrested youthanasia curse he was afflicted with in the previous book. | |

| Barry Trotter / int_26f68115 | comment |
Art Imitates Art: Dali gives Barry a tiny statue of himself dressed as the Virgin Mary floating in a jar of his own urine. This seems to be a reference to Piss Christ by Andres Serrano, a photograph of a crucifix floating in his urine. | |

A True Story in My Universe; Here a franchise parodying Harry Potter is based on a true story and lead to the existence of magic being exposed to the Muggle public. We meet Charlie from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory who had a successful book and movie based on his adventure. Though the other characters and actors have different names. | |

Keeping the Handicap: Played for Laughs in Barry Trotter and the Shameless Parody. The blacksmith Zed has, on several occasions, offered to make Barry a set of prosthetic zinc eyeballs to correct his vision problems. Barry always refuses on the grounds that Zed is crazy and it's a bloody stupid idea. | |

Postmodernism: The first book. It's a parody which is actually a book about trying to stop a movie which turns out to be said movie which is actually revealed to be a parody of the movie written by the main character who has been watching a movie based loosely off his own life, which involved trying to stop the movie from being made. There's even a disclaimer at the back from the author, claiming that if anyone has worked out what's going on that they are to let him know at once. | |
