if they make it almost exactly the same and “credit” it in the smallest font possible and didn’t get permission from the original author… i would say that’s definitely a ripoff
Tell me you don't know xkcd without saying you don't know xkcd. These comics are licensed as CC-BY-NC 2.5, which means you are allowed to remix and use them, without explicitly asking for permission, as long as you attribute the original/author (which is given here) and as long as you do it non-commercially (which is given for this post IMHO).

that’s not attribution.
tell me you’re completely uncreative without telling me you’re completely uncreative.
the rest of what i said stands… but whooooa you “got me” i didn’t read the license on xkcd
It's a parody
It's not a parody. It's a homage
it's not a hoe-midge, it's an oh-marge
It's not an oh-marge, it's ho-mahg-ee.
its not a ho, Marge. Gee, she's a real person.
It's not a homage, it's just the exact same joke.
But updated for our new hellscape!
How is this a parody? It’s not poking fun at the original or pointing out its flaws.
quoth wikipedia: "A parody is a creative work designed to imitate, comment on, and/or mock its subject by means of satirical or ironic imitation." ... "The literary theorist Linda Hutcheon said 'parody ... is imitation, not always at the expense of the parodied text.'"
yeah, and that’s not a parody.
