Line 116:
* Issue #3 of ''[[The Muppet Show Comic Book]]'' opens with Pops the doorman discussing the ''[[Police Academy|Paint Academy]]'' films. Apparently there's an actress in them called [[Thursday Next|Lola VaVoom]].
* At one point in ''[[Y: The Last Man|Y the Last Man]]'', Yorick is messing with a "Fuck Communism" lighter, and mentions that he based it on a comic book character's lighter. Jesse Custer had the same lighter in ''[[Preacher (Comic Book)]]''.
* ''[[The Cartoon History of the Universe]]'' has the Gauls portrayed as [[Asterix]] and Obelix. Once they win a battle, they even mention how they're going to go to their own comic.
* ''[[The Awesome Slapstick]]'' features several of these, to [[The Punisher|Marvel]], [[Batman|DC]], [[Looney Tunes|WB]] characters, and basically anything that the creators thought funny, especially in the second issue which took place in a mall.
* In ''[[Birds of Prey]]'' #25 [[Blue Beetle|Ted Kord]] flies the Beetle around Bludhaven with Oracle and recreates several of Nite Owl's scenes from ''[[Watchmen (comics)|Watchmen]]'' in the process. For bonus points Nite Owl was originally supposed to be Ted Kord.
Line 159:
* In both ''[[Young Justice (comics)|Young Justice]]'' and ''[[Teen Titans Go!]]'', the artist for both series tends to cram in tons of references to ''[[Mystery Science Theater 3000]]''.
