The title says it all: which manga/anime have you read/watched that contain Western comic book references?
It's well-known that the author of Trigun, Yasuhiro Nightow, is a big fan of Western comic books and, as such, included a lot of its aesthetic within the pages of Trigun (e.g. Monev the Gale's name & design being based on Marvel Comics' Venom). But something I haven't heard anyone make the comparison between before are one of the Gung-Ho Guns, Rai-Dei the Blade, and Miho from Sin City: both the only Japanese characters in their respective work, both wear roller skates, and both bring katanas to battles where their opponents usually carry guns.
