*** ''Speed Demon'' #58 seems to be one of ''Franchise/TheFlash'' [[https://dc.fandom.com/wiki/The_Flash_Vol_1_111 #111]].
*** ''Amazing Myths'' #35 features a Franchise/WonderWoman-like character, Pamazon, posed with a bunch of other superheroes on the ground around her like Jean Grey on the cover of ''ComicBook/UncannyXMen'' #135 (the page image for ''ComicBook/TheDarkPhoenixSaga'' page).
*** ''Doctor Conundrum'' #1 (an apparent ComicBook/DoctorStrange {{Expy}}) seems based on ''Doctor Strange'' [[https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Doctor_Strange_Vol_2_32 #32]].
