/r/ComedyNecromancy is a ComedyCemetery inspired spin-off subreddit created on June 1st, 2016, the subreddit is for transforming bad memes into good ones, and "resurrecting" them from their comedy graves, somewhat similar to ComedyHeaven but instead of keeping the meme how it was, you change it in some ways. It does not work like BoneHurtingJuice though, as you are only allowed to edit the text bubbles within that subreddit, or where the text is.
What Fits into The Subreddit
Memes that are bad, but with the editing of someone are revived from the dead.

Subreddit History
Origins
The subreddit would be created on June 1st, 2016 by user u/fucking_weebs (Whoops suspended lmfao) it would take inspiration from the already existing ideals of ComedyCemetery, but would change the formula a slight bit.
Politics Rule
On July 17th, 2017 a new rule about political posts would be implemented, simply no political content could be posted onto the subreddit after this change.
AutoModerator Changes
On September 28th, 2017 the owner of the subreddit would announce some AutoModerator changes, as some of the users of the subreddit expressed their opinions regarding that there was no reminder to post the original comic / source from the bot if you posted something into the subreddit. This was fixed and now AutoMod would send a message everytime you sent a meme into the subreddit. A slight amount of drama would happen in the comment sections due to some of the users expressing their distaste towards this change.
No Blanking Rule
On the 14th of December 2017 a new rule would be introduced, "No blank edits", aka blanking every text bubble / other features of a meme.
Funwaa Disclaimer Announcement
On November 2nd, 2017 the mod u/Desucrate would make an announcement regarding Funwaa posts being made on the r/ComedyNecromancy subreddit, as there was a large influx of posts editing comics from Funwaa. Most of these posts were making jokes at the fact that they're Funwaa, rather than actually improving the joke and making it something fitting into the subreddit.
Best of /r/ComedyNecromancy 2017 Awards
On December 1st mod u/Desucrate would announce the Best of /r/ComedyNecromancy Award Nominations, there would be five categories which users could choose from and nominate other people's memes, these included : Best Adam Ellis Edit, Most Effort Put Into Necromancy, Most Meta Comic, Funniest Edit and finally Best Improvement, there would be some rules to follow though, such as that you couldn't nominate yourself, your account had to be atleast 1 month old, you could only nominate 1 comic per category, etc. The contest would end on December 20th and the finalists would be showed, each finalist would receive "2 Ccredits". (This is not a typo)
Results and Finalists
On January 2nd, 2018 mod u/Desucrate would finally announce the finalists and the end of the awards, each category had atleast a few nominations each.
