* ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'': Episode six, "Power Ponies," features a spoof of Film/{{The Avengers|2012}} and Franchise/{{Justice League|of America}}. The main villain, the Mane-iac, is a parody on ComicBook/DoctorOctopus, [[Franchise/{{Batman}} The Joker and Poison Ivy]] , Pinkie (Fili-Second) has super speed, akin to Franchise/TheFlash, Fluttershy (Saddle-Rager) loses her temper like the [[ComicBook/TheIncredibleHulk Hulk]], Rainbow Dash (Zapp) controls the weather like ComicBook/{{Storm}}, Applejack (Mistress Mare-velous) has a lasso like Franchise/WonderWoman, Rarity (Radiance) has a gem that creates shiny things like Franchise/GreenLantern, and Twilight (the Masked Matterhorn) has a freezing beam just like ComicBook/{{Iceman|MarvelComics}}. Spike is merely put as [[ComicBook/{{Robin}}]], and although his character was just there for comic relief, and also as TheLoad and a TagalongKid, he ended up being TheChessmaster due to his insight on the comic books themselves.
