A thinly disguised version of Pete appears in the novel Who P-P-P-Plugged Roger Rabbit by Gary K. Wolf.
"Black Pete's Blunderbuss" or simply "Blunderbuss" is an alcoholic drink consisting of a Red Bull energy drink mixed with vodka and Jägermeister liquor. The drink has gained popularity in the famed 6th street entertainment district of Austin, Texas. The name was presumably derived from Black Pete's occasional role as a blunderbuss-wielding pirate in both his comic strip and comic book appearances.

“To recover the fatherhood idea, we must fashion a new cultural story of fatherhood. The moral of today’s story is that fatherhood is superfluous. The moral of the new story must be that fatherhood is essential.”
