Connections To Other Works
- Agatha is visible throughout the GURPS Illuminati University sourcebook, which was illustrated by the Foglios, and she is even identified by name on page 11. A GURPS Girl Genius Sourcebook is also in development.
- The comic has made references to other webcomics, such as Girls with Slingshots, Wapsi Square, Gunnerkrigg Court, Arcane Times, Something Positive, Dominic Deegan: Oracle For Hire,Basic Instructions, Home on the Strange, The Devil's Panties, Schlock Mercenary and Studio Foglio's own Buck Godot; and What's New as well as The Order of the Stick, Terry Pratchett's Luggage, Namir Deiter, Digger, Freefall, Questionable Content, Lackadaisy and Bob the Angry Flower.
- Girl Genius has also referenced more classical comics. At one point a prisoner in a dungeon recognizes some Jagermonsters who have broken in and says "Nov Shmoz Ka Pop?" This is the nonsense catchphrase from Gene Ahern's classic surrealist newspaper strip The Squirrel Cage, which ran from 1936 to 1953.
- Othar's Twitter is ostensibly a blog by Othar Tryggvassen.

Famous quotes containing the words connections and/or works:
“Our business being to colonize the country, there was only one way to do it—by spreading over it all the associations and connections of family life.”
—Henry Parkes (1815–1896)
“When life has been well spent, age is a loss of what it can well spare,—muscular strength, organic instincts, gross bulk, and works that belong to these. But the central wisdom, which was old in infancy, is young in fourscore years, and dropping off obstructions, leaves in happy subjects the mind purified and wise.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
