(SPOILERS if you haven't seen the show yet):
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Mxy knocks over a display case that contains the Helmet of Fate. The mystical, god containing item, makes its first appearance, along with Doctor Fate, in More Fun Comics #55 (1940) the panels were done by Gardner Fox and Howard Sherman. The Helmet of Fate is the one controlling the body as it contains the god, Nabu, the Lord of Order. The helmet grants anyone who wears it magical powers and the mantle of the Doctor Fate. Usually the person most associated with the it is Kent Nelson but recent comics had Khalid Nassour take up the Doctor Fate name.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Next we see Mxy pass by the Cosmic Rod of Starman/Stargirl. In the
comics the original owner of the Cosmic Rod was Ted Knigh, the original Starman. The Cosmic Rod he wielded was about the size of a flashlight. It wasn't until Starman #4 (1994) (W: James Robinson, P: Tony Harris, I: Wade Von Grawbadger, C: Gregory Wright, L: John Workman) that his son, Jack Knight took the new and improved Cosmic Rod that his father made and used it for himself to take up the Starman name. The staff would then get passed on to Courtney Whitmore aka Stargirl who at the time took up the name Star-Spangled Kid, when Jack retired the Starman identity to raise his kid. Courtney took up the Starman name as Stargirl and used the Cosmic Rod to carry on the name. The Cosmic Rod gives its wielder flight and energy projection.

Mr. Mxyzptlk then passes over a flight ring in the display. Very good homage to the Legion of Superheroes. Originally the LoSH wore belts to allow their members to fly, but Brainiac 5 was able to make flight rings so they can be less encumbered by the belts as seen in the panel from Adventure Comics #329 (1965) (W: Jerry Seigel, P&I: Jim Mooney, L: David Huffine). The LoSH are a group of young superheroes from the 31st century who are from various parts of the galaxy that fight evil as a team. The group was inspired by reading the history of what Superman did and they want to uphold his ideals and legacy. If they do show up in the show I'll definitely talk more about them.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
In another display we see the Soultaker Sword. The sword is associated with Tatsu Yamashiro aka Katana. It and Katana make their first debut in the Brave and the Bold 200 (1983) (W: Mike Barr, P&I: Jim Aparo, C: Adrienne Roy, L: Jim Aparo). The sword was forged by Muramasa, who imbued it with magical properties where whoever kills with the sword, steals the souls of the victim's. Tatsu's husband and children were unfortunately slain by the sword, wielded by her brother-in-law and Tatsu has since then taken the sword and use it to avenged those who were slain by him. Because of the swords magical properties, it can be used to harm Kryptonians. Yes magic is a weakness for Superman.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
When we cut back to the League of Loises ship, Jalana goes Flamebird on everyone and name drops Comet. This is a very good homage to Comet the Super-Horse. Comet made his first debut in Adventure Comics 293 (1962) (W: Jerry Seigel, P: Curt Swan, I: George Klein, L: Milt Snapinn) Comet, along with Krypto the Super-Dog, Streaky the Super-Cat, and Beppo the Super-Monkey, formed the Legion of Super-Pets to save the Legion of Superheroes and Superboy from Brain-Globes of Rambat. Give Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow a read if you want to check out a really cool Comet story.

Krypton gets a name drop, Superman's home planet.

Kryptonite is finally introduced in the show, the most well-known weakness of Superman's. Fun fact Kryptonite made its first appearance not in the comics but on the Adventures of Superman radio show in 1943. It wasn't until 6 years later in 1949 that Kryptonite is introduced in the comics in Superman #61.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
At the League of Loises HQ we see MAwS Lois and Mxy walk down the hall with holographic projections of various Loises in the DC multiverse. The one on your left is obviously Lois Prime aka Fleischer Studios Lois the one on your right is Superman the Animated Series Lois. The one next to StAS Lois is Superwoman from Action Comics #60 (1943). The issue was created by Jerry Seigel and George Roussos where Lois dreams of having Superman's powers and saving the day.
Tumblr media
As Mxy searches for his hat we see him open up a cache of various weapons that the Loises have collected. Some of them are pretty recognizable like the Card Captor Sakura staff that's by Mxy's head, Guts's giant sword from Berserk above Mxy on the second shelf from the bottom.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
As the episode wraps up we see MAwS lois activate the data sphere she took from the headquarters and sees evil Supermen tearing up the city. The first we see is an homage to Overman from Animal Man #23 (1990) (W: Peter Milligan, P: Chas Truog, I: Mark Farmer, C: Tajana Wood, L: John Costanza) and the second is designed after Justice Lords Superman from the Justice League cartoon.
Overman is from a world where all superheroes are part of the government and each one is a clone from him. Justice Lords Superman is from the two-parter episode "A Better World" where his Flash died, Superman kills President Lex Luthor in retaliation and he and the Justice League become dictators. Gotta admit Superman does look pretty cool in that suit.
That will be it for this week's episodes Easter Eggs and references. If you made it this far down the post and want to see the other MAwS Easter Eggs and references post you can find them here:

My friend @fierrochaseist4t suggested I watch Batman: Soul of the dragon and let me tell ya'll. If you love blaxplotation and kung fu movies, you're gonna love this. The whole thing is just batman but a 70's Kung fu movie. The movie has some crazy deep cuts for comic fans.
Tumblr media
Like they had Judomaster, Richard dragon, Jade Nguyen, and O sensei

Highly recommend this movie man solid 9.9/10

Have you made/thought of other soultaker characters so far? I think the lore of it is pretty neat
YEAGH I just need to draw them 💥💥💥💥💥
So far I have.... Deimos he's silver's superior, was the one 2 make sil's contract - he suckssss but he has a neat Irish accent like this ___ tricky silly devil guy. He canonically looks like Jacksepticeye without the dyed hair to humans. (This started off as a joke but it's canon now) there's more to him but I'm head empty rn
Evangeline (an angel with a lot of power, Methinks probably some kind of lawyer and defended silbeni at some point. She has a throne (da type of angel) head w a humanoid body and she kind of has franziska from ace attorney vibes? Except less wild slsjsksb. haughty girlboss in the purest sense of the word. She likes Beni but she really doesn't like Silver... She thinks they're a bad influence on Beni. Beni and her have a good relationship bc she's sent a lot of ghosts to heaven and that's good for business. Meanwhile Silver works for the opposite side so. Yeah
Wyatt !!! yeahh the one from digital circus. Repurposing him because I like him. In this Wyatt is an archangel and he met Beni when she was a child... They first met when He saved her from getting hit by a car. Wyatt would visit small Beni every now and again after that but he mysteriously stopped coming around one day, and she always wondered why.
They meet again later on :3 and Wyatt becomes a helpful ally to silbeni
Ive also thought about making a skeleton character... Mr. Cal A. Vera. (Badum tss) who's a mafioso type guy.. owns a casino. But that's pretty much all I've thought about him

the way soultaker 1990 is actually a genuinely interesting film with a solid enough plot but its so incredibly middling that saying it should be a cult classic will get you laughed out of academia

I just realized my first webcomic, Soultaker, is completely done posting!! It took about two years, 90 pages, and it's finally finished!
(I also closed it up with this little plug for Goblin Rise and the Arcane Wild)
You can read Soultaker here: https://tapas.io/episode/1955440
