* ''[http://hellbastardcomix.com/ Hellbastard Comics]'' starts with an alien war that interrupts [[Satan]]'s viewing of ''Bridezillas'' in what is later revealed to be the pre-Napoleonic era and just [[Rule of Cool|gets better]] from there.
* ''[[Blade Bunny]]'' takes place in a historical mashup of feudal Japan and ancient China, with {{spoiler|robots}} one of which has {{spoiler|futuristic guns}} and a [[Bunny Girl]] in a microskirt.

* [http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2000/8/25/ This] [[Penny Arcade]] comic has a flashback to 1988 showing characters using a Powerglove (introduced in 1989 and quickly flopped), reading ''Nintendo Power'' #31 (December, 1991), talking about ''[[Thundercats]]'' (ran from 1985–89), and drinking a New Coke (introduced in 1985 and quickly flopped). To be fair, the date is only implied, and everybody didn't immediately quit drinking New Coke, playing with Powergloves, or referencing cancelled cartoons. But the overall impression is a mishmash of things associated with the '80s, regardless of which part of the '80s (or early '90s) they actually came from.
