But actually comics in TV and books count too, maybe not when they've 'come to life' though, i.e. Radioactive Man.

5. Marvel comics in the Marvel Universe, e.g. the comic (was it Captain America, even?) that Steve Rogers used to be an artist on, the FF comics that used to show up in FF a lot, the comics introduced by She-Hulk as evidence.

Couldn't be more self-consciously meta, literally, but what was the name of the comic universe in The Filth?

6. 2000 AD - There was a Judge Dredd story which chronicled a raid on the headquarters of an illegal comic dealing ring. It ended with a load of judges standing round reading the very prog in which the story appeared, and one of them says, "Drokk! No wonder this was banned! It's more thrillpower than a citizen can take!"

The judge didn't seem at all freaked out by the fact he was reading about himself saying those words, but then judges are made of stern stuff.
