[[The Black Cauldron|The Horned King]], a horned, ''ridiculously'' scary, skull-faced monarch who can raise skeletons and whose power lies in a pit of green ooze. Welp.
* The game Dropball, played by Ghost Man in "Blood Under The Skin," is a [[Shout-Out]] to [[Bullet Ball]], the high calibre tablegame designed for the 21st-century lifestyle that went memetic after creator [[Hopeless Auditionees|Marc Griffin]]'s memetically depressing/hilarious [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WOOw2yWMSfk appearance] on ''[[American Inventor]]''.

[[Bonus Points]] for [[Episode Finishes the Title|Finn and Jake screaming in the title card]].

* [http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20111114220429/adventuretimewithfinnandjake/images/1/14/Me-mow.png The crew made an episode in honor of a little kid and his drawing of her original character, Me-mow, fighting Jake, which he titled "Jake vs. Me-mow".]{{Dead link}} Appropriately, the episode is called "Jake vs. Me-mow".
** The music box Finn uses to accompany the lullaby is strongly similar to the Orb of Isis in ''[[The Simpsons (animation)|The Simpsons]]'' episode "Lost Our Lisa."
* The Bucket Knight is a shout-out to the Alternian Imperial Drones from ''[[Homestuck]]''. The artists are confirmed to be fans: a picture of their whiteboard shows doodles of the main characters.
Line 47:
* "[[The Bible|Partake of the fruit...]]"
* The first issue of the comic shows a cross-section of the ground... including a [[Dinosaur Comics|fossilized T. rex about to stomp on a house]].
