== [[Comic Books]] ==
* Quite a few ''[[Superman]]'' covers reference the cover of the Action Comics issue in which Supes first appeared. (the page image is from ''[[Infinite Crisis]]'', with [[Alternate Universe|Superman from Earth-2/Kal-L]] striking regular Superman/Kal-El) ''[[Superman Returns]]'' even staged it in live action.
** Similarly, ''[[Fantastic Four (Comic Book)|Fantastic Four]]'' #1's cover is homaged a lot at [[Marvel Comics]].
** As is the one for ''Amazing Fantasy #15'', [[Spider-Man]]'s first appearance.
*** And in ''Batgirl'', once.
Line 60:
*** "''What a horrible night to have a curse''" and "''the morning sun has vanquished the horrible night''" from CV2 Simon's Quest might have something to do with that.
* ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog (2006 video game)||Sonic the Hedgehog 2006]]'' had several of these. The game, however, was unredeemable, and as such is seen by some as a disgrace to those older moments.
** On the other hand, you can expect to find at least one of these in recent ''[[Super Mario Bros.(franchise)|Mario]]'' games. And let's not get into ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]''...
** ''[[Sonic Generations]]'', being another [[Milestone Celebration]], also features a healthy amount of these, though not the fact that the entire game is levels from previous games (the plot explicitly states this as time travel and is technically not an example). Instead, the levels get several redesigns, causing them to homage levels and songs from other games either by visual appearance or by recreating actual segments of gameplay and level design.
* The ''[[Metal Gear]] Solid'' games love doing this; ''Metal Gear Solid 2'' and ''4'' are full of them.
