[[folder:Fan Fiction]]
* ''Fanfic/BoldoresAndBoomsticks'': Lt. Surge quotes a few of the Maxims of Maximally Effective Mercenaries while meeting with Ruby and Weiss.
* ''Internship Deputy'' had Vista comment that "If it's stupid but it works, it's still stupid and you got lucky." This was due to one of the betas liking the comic, throwing it in, and the author liking it
* Two of them in ''Fanfic/NoGodsOnlyGuns'':
** First, a mention that a slaver captain "had always held by the old mercenary's adage: Pillage first, ''then'' burn."
** And later, a pirate captain is referred to as having "accountants who existed simply to keep track of the accountants who keep track of the bandits who answered to him."
* ''Fanfic/ShinjiAndWarhammer40k'' gives a simple one: "An ominous hum rose from the Dreadnought."

[[folder:Literature]]
* The web-novel ''Literature/{{Domina}}'' makes an off-hand reference to chupaquesos.
* Creator/JohnRingo is a big fan of the comic, and has referenced it in several of his works:
** ''Literature/PrinceRoger'', by Ringo and Creator/DavidWeber, features the Althari, a species of koala-like ProudWarriorRaceGuys.
** ''Literature/TroyRising'' is entirely predicated on being a prequel to the world of ''Schlock Mercenary'', depicting the first contact between humanity and the rest of the galaxy, even if later events in the series rendered it CanonDiscontinuity for the Schlockverse.
** The comic is mentioned by name in the first novel of the ''Literature/BlackTideRising'' ZombieApocalypse series, with Tayler being implied to have succumbed to the plague, and ''The Seventy Maxims of Maximally Effective Mercenaries'' get quoted from, particularly the one regarding [[TheresNoKillLikeOverkill "overkill"]].

[[folder:Tabletop Games]]
* ''[[TabletopGame/{{Munchkin}} Star Munchkin]]'' used Schlock's plasma cannon as a picture for its plasma cannon, complete with Schlock and the ominous hummmmm.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Video Games]]
* ''[[VideoGame/{{Civilization}} Civilization 6]]'' used a piece of dialog from [[https://www.schlockmercenary.com/2005-01-05 here]] as the quote the narrator, Sean Bean, reads upon discovery of the civic Mercenaries. [[https://www.schlockmercenary.com/blog/me-tolkien-and-grrm Howard Tayler's reaction seemed to be that of approval.]]
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Webcomics]]
* ''Webcomic/SquareRootOfMinusGarfield'' uses [[http://www.mezzacotta.net/garfield/?comic=601 the exact same line and font]] as when Petey's plumbing yelled at everyone to [[foldercontrol]]

[[folder: GET OUT. ]]

* ''Webcomic/{{Erfworld}}'': At one point, a [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin crap golem]] appears which looks like a [[RunningGag certain character from this comic]].
* ''Webcomic/TheWhiteboard'': The comic has had assorted references and [[TheCameo Cameo]] appearances during [[HalloweenEpisode Halloween party storylines]]. Comic author "Doc" Nickel has even made a model of Sgt. Schlock's BH-209 plasma gun for Mr. Tayler as a gift.
** The first frame of [[http://www.the-whiteboard.com/autowb358.html this strip]] shows Doc wielding a BH-209, complete with its [[UnsoundEffect Ominous Hummmmm]] as he prepares to fire it at an off-screen paintball game cheater.

The tale is being told by a koala wearing a yellow shirt.
* ''Webcomic/{{Freefall}}'' has [[TheCameo cameoed]] Schlock in the past, in [[http://freefall.purrsia.com/ff1900/fc01864.htm this strip.]]
* ''Webcomic/GrrlPower'''s [[http://grrlpowercomic.com/archives/3038/ 3 December 2018 strip]] includes a Schlock cameo on Fracture Station.[[note]]Author Dave B made it a RunningGag to put in as many SF/F cameos as he could think of during this story arc.[[/note]]

[[folder:Web Original]]
* ''WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall'' at one point refers to a powerful battleship as a battleplate.
** Linkara also once complained about the sudden appearance of a cryo-kit in a comic, stating that unlike in Schlock Mercenary the tech was not properly established and seemed out of place.
* [[Literature/TheTalesOfPaulTwister Paul Twister]] is apparently a fan; he's quoted from the Seventy Maxims more than once.
