Comics referencing/being referenced in MangaJust saw this while reading Devilman. Any other examples?
What Devilman manga is this from?Carrie Kelly debuted in 1986
>>155970434that's quite a reach
Anyways, for an actual confirmed reference here's Apocalypse in Kenshin
>>155970462The original by Go Nagi (i believe)>>155970466You really think that's a stretch in OP? They look awfully similar.
>>155970508>The original by Go Nagi (i believe)......Anon
>>155970434Yugioh has a lot them. The even got into a lawsuit because of it.
>>155970581
>>155970581>lawsuitI'm pretty sure Ravedactyl's creator is crazy, smarmy, or both
>>155970610I think he's just an idiot. He believed Ravedactyl and Air Neos could collab like he was an actual character.
>>155970508>They look awfully similar.I mean except for the entire pose, framing and tone sure.
>>155970466It always is with these people.
Batman and Swampthing
>>155970434That one, not so much. It might be from Lone Wolf and Cub, if anything. There is this one. Yukito Kishiro was a fan of Miller.
>>155970735Jeez
>>155970581I had this card as a kid and never clocked it as obviously being a Spawn "inspired" design
>>155970735>that bubblemanBruh
>>155970825>t might be from Lone Wolf and Cub, if anything.You'd be right. Both of them are referencing Lone Wolf and Cub. Miller has always been outspoken fan.
>>155970434Not exactly manga but I know of a lot of comic book Digimon. Although they might have shown up in Vtamer or something. And Kenji Watanabe admitted the comic book influenced on the art style was intentional before:Tim Burton's Batman = Devimon
Tim Burton's Catwoman = LadyDevimon
DoneDevimon = Spawn and Carnage (actually confirmed by Kenji himself)
Ghost Rider = DeathMeramon >>155972365I meant venom not carnage
Human Torch = Meramon
>>155970477>kenshinAnd also gambit
Hellboy = FlamonKenji actually follows Mignola on Twitter. Thered a ton of SMT demons but I already dumped enough .
Getter Robo Armageddon's ending referencing The Dark Knight Returns
Big O is obviously Batman inspired but it has some other cameos.
>>155972533
They are more coincidences than everything but both normal and shiny Rogenrola, Boldore and Gigalith remind me of Sugilite and UAF Diamondhead (since the former has energy-rated powers and Ben 10 is influenced by superhero comics)
SSSS.Gridman's characters were mostly Shattered Glass comic references and a few other random Transformer things.
>>155972822I won't post them all unless someone wants me to for some reason. Oh and there was a Gobot girl.
Found these going through Kingdom Come
>>155972903
>>155970600I still have no fucking idea how this lawsuit had any ground.
>>155972903I think this isn’t the right thread for it>>155972918>they actually shoot at the Blue Meanies
>>155970434Early Kinnikuman had a lot of them its not in the image but for the American Tag arc they literally had Clark Kent as their referee.
>>155972082Wasn't there a reference with the bike in Dark Knight
>>155973023Read the description I only posted that for Tusk. He is probabaly based on Zeon aquatic mecha like the Zgok and Hygogg. I just don't think he could name it directly. The Beatles are probably 70s mecha inspired.
>>155973235>Star of DavidThe jokes write themselves. BAman is cute though.
>>155973580But this was about the opposite
Murican Tetsujin 28 and Atom Tetsujin has weird little Easter eggs in Shaolin Cowboy too like his head is in the shark guts or something
>>155973600No? >Comics referencing/being referenced in Manga
>>155970434
>>155974001K E K
>>155973461A slide slide perhaps?
>>155975324The one and only.
>>155970434SoLet me tell you about Diesel
>>155975638ENEMY STAND!
>>155975638Hulk fucked Lobo huh?
Have you read Demo. lord Dante? Go's other work
>>155970434Frank Miller could definitely have read devilman he was a huge ass weeb.
>>155975638didn't the artist straight up say he never though Jojo would come to the west?
>>155970434>>155970466>>155970825How about this?
Probably doesn't count (as this is literally a fan manga about superheroes) but cyclops and biblically accurate wolverine from my hero academia vigilantes. I also like how the frog girl is basically just Toad.
>>155976872Well the whole concept is Professor Xavior's School for Gifted Youngsters. I'm more shocked there AREN'T more X-Men references
>>155976872>>155976900I kind of wanted to do a deep dive and see how much X-Men was in MHA, but both franchises are dogshit so I didn't read much of either.
>>155970466lol I said the same damn thing
Bump. I want to see that webm compilation of all the Akira bike slides
>>155976872KINOMHA is shit but the spin off,vigilantes is goodI feel like mha would be better if it had diffrent main castOther than all might,aids superman can stay
