        I’m not sure that explains the reference, unless the person has also seen the show invincible, and I assume the specific episode this is referencing

          I mean, I don’t know that there’s much more to explain. There’s a group of badass supes that are a whole lot of trouble. But you kinda get the impression that they’re trouble from the picture anyways.

          So if you haven’t seen it, I don’t know that there’s much more to explain. I could go into WHO some of them are imitating like the skull, Thragg, or Conquest. But then I’m just explaining the show. I don’t know that any of that is relevant to explain this except to confirm that they’re directly mixed with characters from the show (bad guys).

      I kinda get it in that this is a drawing of Homer Simpson don in an anime/manga style. And Mr sparkles was an og(ish) Simpsons episode centering on homers likeness to a Japanese soap brand’s mascot/logo.

      There was an episode where Homer found his face on laundry detergent or something, turns out it was a combination of a fish and a light bulb through a corporate merger, in Japan. One of the classic Simpsons episodes.
