Adam West, the actor of Batman in the 1960s Batman TV series, is guest star. Homer introduces him to Bart and Lisa as "Batman", but they claim it's not him. This prompts West to start bickering how they probably only know Michael Keaton and Michelle Pfeiffer (who played Batman and Catwoman in Tim Burton's film versions). He claims that Lee Meriwether, Julie Newmar and Eartha Kitt are the only real Catwoman and tries to show off by doing the Batdance. This creeps out Homer too and he leads his children away. Later in the episode West hired both Mr. Plow and Plow King, but since the Plow King was first West took his services instead. With the snow on his driveaway out of the way West quickly gets in his car while the music from the Batman TV series plays, to mimick similar scenes whenever Batman jumped into his Batmobile.

"Radioactive Man"
|
One of the comic titles Bart and Millhouse pass through in Comic Book Guy's store is titled Batchick, in reference to Batgirl and Batwoman. The film makers want the Radioactive Man film to be different from the campy 1970s version, which is a reference to the fact that the makers of Batman (1989) also wanted the film to be darker in tone than the 1960s Batman TV series. The 1970s Radioactive Man version is a parody of the TV series Batman, complete with tilted camera shots, onomatopeia appearing on the screen during fight scenes, a cartoonishly portrayed villain (The Scout Master) and Radioactive Man doing a dance similar to the Batdance.

When Bart points out that "none of these things ever really happened" Comic Book Guy tells him to leave his store. When Lisa talks with Daniel Clowes how much she liked Ghost World he tells her that he would rather draw Batman comics and starts talking about his utility belt, much to Lisa's disinterest. Milhouse shows Alan Moore a copy of Watchmen Babies in V for Vacation - a juvenile spin-off of Watchmen and V for Vendetta - and asks him to sign it, which outrages him, in reference to his real-life dissatisfaction about media adaptations of his own work.

Comic Book Guy's Book of Pop Culture
|
Comic Book Guy's list of the greatest quotes of all time includes two from the Superman movie series: "I like pink very much, Lois" by Superman in Superman: The Movie and "Why do you say this to me, when you know I will kill you for it?" by General Zod (to Lex Luthor) in Superman II.

Comic Book Guy has props and costume pieces from several different superhero and sci-fi franchises displayed on a dress mannequin, including Batman's boots, tights, and cape.

Homer Simpson's Little Book of Laziness
|
In his list of types of lazy people, Homer identifies Comic Book Guy as "The Procrastinator", citing him as saying, "I'll get to the inventory, right after I blog my top twenty-five reasons why Batman cannot possibly be gay."

|
In his reviews of comic book adaptations of works of classic literature, Comic Book Guy makes multiple references to the DC universe:
Regarding the Little Women of Little Women, CBG says he envisions a Team-Up issue with the Little Men, including the Atom and Doll Man.
The cover of the adaptation of A Farewell to Arms shows the main character having lost his arms, which doesn't happen in the novel. CBG justifies the depiction as artistic license, and as a supporting example cites a storyline where Superman is depicted murdering Lois Lane in outer space.
In his review of the adaptation of The Scarlet Letter, CBG says, "Hester Prynne, you have replaced Power Girl in my dreams!" Also, the cover shows Hester Prynne opening the front of her dress to reveal the red "A" on her underclothes, in a pose similar to Clark Kent changing to Superman.

Attention Dwight Howard - if you are, as you claim, Superman, you have done a poor job of protecting your alter ego.
