In the sketch, a man wearing sunglasses (representing Berke Breathed), while jamming money into the engine, booted Mickey and a girl with cornrows off his motorboat and told them they were "lazy freeloaders", pointing out that he told them they won't get any rides until their faces were printed on boxer shorts, and yelled at them to get to work while sarcastically asking if they thought they were The Simpsons (while cursing in the middle of naming the franchise), while a fat man (representing Breathed's boss within the cartoon syndicate) is gleefully thinking he'll get a boy back into the palm of his hand.

Calvin and Hobbes

• In a weekday strip, Calvin is practicing a cute expression in front of a mirror to get his mother to buy him a flamethrower; Hobbes comments that doing the "Bambi eyes" will be of no avail. In another strip, Calvin explains the world overpopulation issue by means a role-reversal story where deer attack men in their "natural environment" (workplaces). One of these deer calls his cohort "Bamb".
• In the 9/29 through 10/1 1986 story arc, Hobbes copies Calvin and tries to act "cool". To dress the part, he dons Mickey Mouse's trademark red pants with yellow buttons.
• In a weekday strip, when Calvin failed to obtain a million dollars after wishing upon a star, he cursed Jiminy Cricket's name.
• In the 2/8 through 2/20 1988 story arc, Calvin becomes an owl and, due to the Transmogrifier Gun overheating, is stuck as one. When he realizes he won't have to go to school in owl form, he starts merrily singing a few bars of the song "Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah".

FoxTrot

• In one Sunday strip from 1993, Paige and Andy Fox were going for back-to-school shopping for Jason. Paige refuses all of Andy's choices for Jason's backpack bitterly, then begs her mother to get Jason a backpack based on The Little Mermaid, only for her mother to refuse (it was implied that Paige either wanted it for herself or genuinely wanted it for Jason although solely to humiliate him).
• A strip from 1994 had Jason wanting to have some role in the development of a Disneyland in Virginia, which had been planned at the time of the strip's publication.
• A 1998 story arc that ran at the time of Air Bud: Golden Receiver's release, had Jason trying to train his iguana Quincy to play various sports, having been inspired by the events of the film Air Bud, although the film isn't mentioned by name (at the time the story arc was released, Air Bud had received positive reviews).
• In a daily strip, when Paige is asking her father Roger to define a conjunction for homework, Roger starts singing the opening lyrics for "Conjunction Junction" from Grammar Rock!, although he ends up forgetting the definition when Paige requests that she be given the definition for the term in normal terms.
• Around the time Finding Nemo was released, a story arc was released where Jason tried to do his own version of Finding Nemo called Finding Hemo involving a leech. The same story arc also alluded to rival company DreamWorks SKG's tendency to make movies with similar plotlines to Pixar films (especially Antz copying A Bug's Life) when Peter, when protesting to Jason about ripping off one of Pixar's films, cited that his objections were because "that's DreamWorks' turf." At one point, Jason also inferred that Pixar got the idea for A Bug's Life from waiting a long enough period of time for a single frame to be completed that cobwebs formed over him.
• A story arc, premiering around the time Michael Eisner was about to get fired from being CEO, featured Jason Fox considering trying to take over as CEO of the Walt Disney Company in case Eisner "gets the boot." Some of his ideas included ensuring real ghosts were used for the Haunted Mansion attraction at Walt Disney World, including a Balrog during the "We dig, dig, dig, dig, dig, dig in our mine the whole day through" segment of Heigh Ho, updating some movies (namely The Fox and the Hound, Beauty and the Beast and Dumbo, also replacing Copper, Beast and Dumbo, respectively with Paige Fox as a subtle insult towards the latter), revamping some Disney old animation (such as Steamboat Willie) to better resemble Japanese Animation (which ironically occurred a few years before Disney decided to distribute Studio Ghibli films), and potentially taming down some Disney-owned movies that were otherwise unsuitable for ten-year-olds like him (although the strip implied that he intended to do a Lion King version of Pulp Fiction with Timon and Pumbaa as Vincent Vega and Jules Winnefeld, respectively, complete with an afro on the latter, both their holding guns, and re-enacting the "quarter-pounder with cheese" conversation). Eventually, Jason decided against it at the last minute as he feared that Disney, as a large corporation, might require a lot of work from him (it was implied that he mainly wanted unlimited turns at the various rides, namely Space Mountain).
• In one of the strips, Jason decided to dress up as Mickey Mouse to celebrate that the Supreme Court overturned the copyright laws, only to learn they had actually upheld them, with him regretting supergluing Mickey's ears on himself.
• In one of the strips, Eileen Jacobson commented that the wind was "blustery," and when Jason complains about her word choice, plushes of a honey pot and Piglet from Winnie the Pooh were seen flying above them while Eileen commented that the word seemed appropriate somehow, a reference to the Winnie the Pooh film Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day.

• In the April 25, 1983 strip, Garfield receives a letter in which he is asked what his favorite all-time film is. He says, "It's Old Yeller," and then explains why it's his favorite: no doubt referring to Yeller having to be shot for contracting rabies, Garfield says, "I love movies with happy endings."
• For Christmas of 1983, from December 19 to 24, the poem "'Twas the Night Before Christmas" is told throughout the strips while Garfield adds in his usual commentary. On December 21, in response to St. Nick calling out, "On, Comet! On, Cupid! On, Donner and Blitzen!" as part of the poem, Garfield deadpans, "On, Dopey! On, Sneezy! On, Happy!"
• In the first panel of the March 26, 1989 comic strip, Garfield has Nermal dressed like Mickey Mouse to "want him to show some of his friends how cute he can be".
• In the December 6, 1990 comic strip, Garfield asked Odie if he can do any impressions. Odie turns into the face of Mickey Mouse, but Garfield erroneously guesses, "John Wayne?"
• In the October 25, 1998 comic strip, Jon swept the spider outside, then Garfield stomped on it. Jon sadly asked, "Oh, where's the compassion?" and Garfield sarcastically said, "You want compassion? Rent Bambi!"

The comic title is a reference to Nick Wilde and Judy Hopps.
  • In the comic #772, Impossible Beauty Standards, Larisa (a human girl) states: "Hollywood is ramming its impossible beauty standards down the throats of girls and women everywhere! [...] How could any real woman compete with this?!" Larissa is referring to Judy Hopps, and also comments, with a loving stare: "I'd die for ears like that!"
  • In the comic #773, Judyphile, continuing from the previous comic, Larissa is lovingly staring at a picture of Judy Hopps in her cell phone and talking to herself: "Ohh Judy, you’re so cute, and clever, and brave." Larissa then comes out as "bunnysexual" to her mother Lena. Lena states "we all are [bunnysexuals]", but Larissa's father Ivan disagrees, stating "I think Nick is much hotter!" At this point, Lena is watching Zootopia on her tablet, the scene where Judy and Nick ask Flash to run a missing plate on the computer. The scene itself is not shown on the comic, just an excerpt of the dialogue. The comic title, "Judyphile" refers to Larissa's attraction towards Judy Hopps, much like the word "bunnysexual".
  • In the comic #774, A Strip For Peace And Tolerance, the carnivorous animals offer a peace treaty to the herbivorous animals, with a banner that reads "Zootopia: A Message of Peace". Shadow (a fox) says "It's called a hustle, sweetheart.", which is a line from the movie, and the carnivorous creatures attack and eat their prey. Afterwards, Shadow happily says "I love these Disney movies." and Sprint (a weasel) says "We all do."
