* ShoutOut: Not uncommon, but the video game Cosmo and Jojo get stuck in is ''loaded'' with them. A single two-page spread crams in references to ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros'', ''Franchise/MegaMan'', ''VideoGame/PacMan'', ''Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog'', ''VideoGame/DragonsLair'', ''Franchise/{{Kirby}}'' (complete with a blatant King Dedede {{expy}}), ''VideoGame/{{Contra}}'', ''VideoGame/AlteredBeast'', and pretty much any game where your character has to fight their EvilTwin. The variant cover for this issue is an homage to the classic American UsefulNotes/NintendoEntertainmentSystem cartridge boxes, and the "next issue" box on the final page reads simply "[[Franchise/{{Metroid}} See You Next Mission!]]"

** Cosmo's ship is a UFO, but it's pronounced "you-foe" -- he's annoyed that Max spells out the acronym instead. (Max {{facepalm}}s when he finds out the ''Ufo'' has a shuttlecraft called the ''[[IncrediblyLamePun Tufo]]''.)

It's just not an example of either of these tropes. There's no point listing them.


* AliensAreBastards: Averted with Cosmo and his crew. They're actually [[IntriguedByHumanity pretty stoked about encountering a human]].



* MarsNeedsWater: Also averted. In fact, Martians take more precautions with their water, according to Cosmo -- he thinks it's weird that Earthlings leave all their water right up on the surface where it can get dirty.

Back in the 1950's, during the heady early days of UsefulNotes/TheSpaceRace, Creator/ArchieComics came up with ''Cosmo the Merry Martian''. The guy only had 7 issues that would later get serialized, but would gain some recognition after longtime Archie artist Fernando Ruiz kept sticking him in little cameos. ''Cosmo'' is a 2018 reboot of the ''Cosmo the Merry Martian'' miniseries by Creator/IanFlynn and Tracy Yardley (whose [[ComicBook/SonicTheHedgehogArchieComics work you might]] [[ComicBook/MegaMan be familiar with]]).
