* #21 opens by showing us the brutally murdered crew of the ship ''San Demetrio'', followed by the ever-patient Saint of Killers. This is an obvious shout out to ''Literature/{{Dracula}}'', wherein the title character sails to England on the Russian ship ''Demeter'' after killing all the crewmen.

Added DiffLines:
* Jesse's spiritual guide "the Duke" is obviously Creator/JohnWayne.
* Jesus [=DeSade=] quotes and name-drops Creator/OscarWilde, which is apparently supposed to add to his DepravedHomosexual characterization, though of course Wilde himself was not depraved.
* Comedian Creator/BillHicks is discussed and even makes an appearance in a flashback.
* Cassidy name-drops a variety of famous people he's known.
** He claims to have partied with "[[Creator/WilliamSBurroughs Bill Burroughs]]" and that a character in ''Literature/{{Junky}}'' was based on him.
** He was there when poet Creator/DylanThomas died.
** He hung around Creator/BrendanBehan, but disliked the poet's friends.
** He implies being familiar with Creator/NormanMailer.
* In Arseface's special, his teacher has "Film/TheDeclineOfWesternCivilization" written on the chalkboard. This is the name of a very famous documentary about the LA punk scene in 1979/80.
* As Jesse's {{Lancer}}, Cassidy is compared to [[Franchise/StarWars Han Solo]] a few times. When he mentions that he had a falling-out with one of his old friends, Jesse jokingly asks if he won the ''Millennium Falcon'' from him in a card game. Notably, the third volume involves Jesse and Tulip hatching a daring plan [[Film/ReturnOfTheJedi to storm a desert fortress and rescue him from a morbidly obese villain]].
* Cassidy says that when he first became a vampire in 1916, there weren't movies like ''Film/FrightNight1985'' to tell him what he was.
* Cassidy says he figured out what he is by reading ''Literature/{{Dracula}}''
* While Jesse is picking up hitchhikers, he jokes about picking up a "Mr. Hauer." This is a reference to ''Film/TheHitcher'', starring Creator/RutgerHauer.
* Jesse quotes ''Theatre/KingLear'' while standing by the ocean.
* In the final issues, Cassidy has a long monologue relating the plot of ''Film/BreakerMorant'' and likening himself to its antiheroes.
