I have a few homage characters myself.
A Doc Strange re-imagined as Dr. Curiosity. A human only form NON Kheldian PB.
A Praetorian version of one of my characters is more "Forge" than just a "Praet version of an existing hero" but I'm not sure how much homage he is in this instance versus inspiration.
One of my most pure comic book character homage characters was a tribute to "Jubilee" and despite having been rerolled from Virtue to PinnaJustiChampion (3 different Jubi versions from 3 different time line arcs) she still kicks *** and deserves her multi spots in my Alt Cave where slots are so precious I have to delete before creating)
Last and certainly not least (though I have to push the comic book lines to television and if you've ever seen the show it just as might have been a comic book
) my character "Joel the Janitor" is a loving homage to the awesomeness that is Joel Hodgson/Robinson as the lone human castaway on the Satellite of Love.

I always have fun creating homage or pastiche characters, but find that I rarely actually play them. With one exception, none of these characters have made it past level 20 -- perhaps because I'm less connected to them, since they involved less creativity.
Dr. Arcanum: Doctor Occult and Doctor Strange
