When introduced to Carl Grimes (Chandler Riggs) in season one, he can be seen wearing a Science Dog t-shirt. Science Dog is a comic book hero from Kirkman's series, Invincible.

Later on, after the group arrive in Alexandria, he finds Enid (Katelyn Nacon) reading a comic book called Wolf Fight, which serves as both a reference to Kirkman's series The Astounding Wolf-Man and a nod to the coming threats of The Wolves.

These serve as nice nods to The Walking Dead creator and a sweet little reminder that Robert Kirkman exists in the show.
