A couple years after he started on Superman, John Byrne returned to Marvel and the Fantastic(al) Four to
byrne burn himself in a Mad Magazine manner as Superbman, AKA Park Bench, was manipulated into entering a Marble Comic by Dr. Bloom so that he would (naturally) be forced to fight other heroes.

That is a pretty good one...lots of little in-joke digs at Byrne's own Superman work, like his force-field thingus, Supes' hair growing, being a ladykiller.
My favorite part was the observation that it's impossible to write "funny" Thing dialogue without it sounding 100% authentic.
