‘Fake News Rumble’ is an unofficial Daily Show and Colbert Report web comic I started in 2009. The premise is Dick Cheney reveals himself to be an evil alien overlord bent on destroying the world. The only ones who can stop him are our favorite late night duo along with a massive cast of other fake news/real news personalities lending a hand to save the day.

To get a better idea, there’s a whole chapter devoted to a 50 foot Conan O’Brien rampaging through New York. It’s THAT kind of comic.
