I loved the refueling scene with the Victor! The last few pages of that album have a H.P. 42 perform a rocket assisted take off to leave the Afghan crater it's been stuck in for the past 40 years or so.

I thought we could start a thread (mod merged it for those confused) were we post aircraft reminiscant of designs from comic books, either figuratively or directly.

I'l start, the McDonnell XP-67 "Bat". Not only does it remind me of the Batwing (just found out its actually called the Batplane), but it's also called "Bat" lolz.

I think even the L-29 Delfín looks more like that Batwing... Too bad there's no wing sweep and the tail is T-shaped instead of cross-shaped.
Maybe not the most ideal image, i meant batplane figuratively. More extreme example:
