Other pop-culture references are abundant. Henchman 21 plays with a gadget that resembles a ''[[Star Wars]]'' [[lightsaber]] while practicing faux-[[fencing|swordplay]] in the style of that used by Ghyslain Raza, better known as the "[[Star Wars kid]]". Other references, most of which are used as "one-shot" jokes, include ''[[Easy Rider]]'', ''[[Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome]]'', [[Lydia Lunch]], [[Stiv Bators]], [[John Woo]] films, popular director [[Kevin Smith]], the questionable sexuality of members of [[Depeche Mode]], [[Magic: The Gathering]] and the music video for [[Duran Duran|Duran Duran's]] "[[Hungry Like the Wolf]]."
In the episode "Viva Los Muertos!", a direct reference to Scooby Doo is made through five strange mystery hunters. The character referencing to Velma is named "Val", and has the same personality and appearance as [[Valerie Solanas]], a woman in the 1960's who hated men (wrote a book called "The [[SCUM Manifesto]] (The Society for Cutting Up Men)"). She is most famous for the assassination of [[Andy Warhol]].
