Although we've seen plenty of movie, TV, book and game references in Banker.Bmp, comics juxtaposed with other comics is a special case. There's something mind-bending about how much can be said with different comics smashed together.
Disco Godfather also mixes their comics up, but pick a publisher far hipper and more with-it than, pff, Marvel.
Now we get trickier. Esplanade is referencing Family Circus here, but they're really referencing this youtube video from seven years ago. Or, possibly some point in between- don't be thinking I know all the ins and out of these images either. Probably nobody does.
BMan references another Garfield trope... is my best guess here. It might be referencing original Garfield comics or possibly another edit/string of edits of Garfield comics. If you're confused just get out now, it's only going to get worse.
