* Superman briefly tries to set Wonder Woman up with Batman, alluding to their comics relationship.
* Sweet Tooth's appearance seems to take some cues from Joker's appearance in ''ComicBook/TheDarkKnightReturns'' and his mannerisms draw reference to [[Film/Batman1989 Jack Nicholson]] and [[WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries Mark Hamill's]] portrayal of the Joker.
* When Robin asks Candy if she is hurt after getting hit by Sweet Tooth, she replies that "it felt like a kiss," which is an allusion to a song by The Crystals. It's also something Harley Quinn said about the Joker's abuse of her in the comic "Mad Love".

* Frequent mentions of the heroes wanting to play Creator/{{Nintendo}} with each other.
* During "To Be A Man", Superman says [[Wrestling/RicFlair "To be the man you gotta beat the man."]] He also makes a reference to seeing into Batman's soul, which is [[NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer actually one of his powers in some continuities.]]

** Batman's voice is clearly a reference to [[Creator/ChristianBale Christian Bale's]] infamous "[[Memes/TheDarkKnightTrilogy Bat-Growl]]".

** "[[Film/TheDarkKnight This city has just shown you that's full of people ready to believe in good.]]"
* Superman alludes to the ending of ''Film/SupermanTheMovie'' at the beginning [[spoiler: which actually comes into play in the climax.]]
* Sweet Tooth offers a sadistic choice to Gotham, to be decided by Facebook poll: Either he drops a toxic lifesaver into Gotham's water supply, or allows Robin to die. This is a reference to ComicBook/ADeathInTheFamily, where readers were allowed to vote whether or not Robin would be killed off.
* [[Film/TheSilenceOfTheLambs "It puts the warhead on the skin..." "Or else it gets the hose again!"]]
* Like ''ComicBook/TheDarkKnightReturns'', the President sends Superman after Batman to bring him in or kill him.

-->'''Ensemble''': He could be [[WesternAnimation/TheLittleMermaid1989 skewered by a sailing ship]] or [[{{WesternAnimation/Tarzan}} hanged in tangled jungle vines]] or [[WesternAnimation/TheLionKing1994 eaten by hyenas]] or he'll [[DisneyVillainDeath plummet to his death]] from a [[WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast castle]], a [[WesternAnimation/TheGreatMouseDetective clock]], or a [[WesternAnimation/SnowWhiteAndTheSevenDwarfs cliff]]!
** Belle from ''WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast'' makes an appearance in the beginning when she tells Ja'far to [[Main/HypocriticalHumor "keep his fat face out of that motherfucking book"]]
* ''Manga/DeathNote'': Aladdin quotes Light Yagami: "Could anyone else have come this far?"

[[/folder]]

[[folder:Apocalyptour]]
* Obviously, as this is essentially a show consisting of new arrangements of [=Starkid=]'s greatest hits, it's chock-full of shout outs to their previous works. However, there are also some new ones in there, such as the FunnyBackgroundEvent where Brian Holden, launching into "It's Not Over Yet" from ''A Very Potter Sequel'' in response to Joe Walker doubting his plans, [[Film/ANewHope force-chokes Joe for not believing in him]].
[[/folder]]
