Dune References in (Un)Popular Media

I was looking for Dune references in this or that and came across a site called DUNE2K.COM, where many references are listed (
http://forum.dune2k.com/topic/21133-dun ... lar-media/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;). I don't think there's a thread like that on this site (I looked for it) and decided to steal their idea- I even stole the topic title since I'm not clever enough to come up with something like that. I hope that's okay with everyone, and even if it's not, what's done is done. Anyway...

Earthworm Jim
Peter Puppy
Apparently, when this guy got scared, he would chant to himself, "I must not fear, fear is the mind killer, fear is the little death that brings total oblivion" (a modified litany against fear).

Has anyone ever read this? It looks like it might be horrible (although I do like the cover), but who knows?

In regards to Doon, I had a good laugh at most of it, but when the end battles revolve around a cooking contest...
