Comics

Picture Series Issue Story Reference Simpson Comics Simpsons Comics #60 The Man With Two Wives Smithers (is serving as Homer's personal assistant) asks Homer what exactly he does at the plant. His response is what George does on The Jetsons. Later when his chair is spinning out of control, he cries out "Smithers! Stop this crazy thing!" Simpsons Comics #106 Simpsons: The Musical The Capital City Goofball says that The Simpsons: The Musical makes The Flintstones look like The Jetsons. Simpsons Comics One-Shot Wonders Chief Wiggum's Felonious Funnies 1 Future Cop! In Chief Wiggum's dream of being a cop in the future, he and his partner Officer Cornelius pull George Jetson over for ejecting his son from a flying vehicle, even though George protests that he was dropping him off at school. George's protest is a reference to the opening sequence of the TV series, where George does indeed drop Elroy off at school by ejecting him (safely, in a floating bubble) from his air car.

Books
