The Mondo series is a set of themed anthologies co-edited by John Varley in the 1990s. Each book gathers fiction and essays centered on an American pop culture icon: Barbie, Elvis Presley, Marilyn Monroe, and James Dean.

Mondo Barbie (1993) launched the series, and three more volumes followed through 1996. The anthologies sit apart from Varley’s science fiction work, showing his interest in American pop culture and his editorial side.
