Please only comment with ONE hidden detail or reference!
There's one Loss, one Balthazar, one Miep and one crewmate. Bonus comics don't count.
FIRST PANEL
1: Geralt's sword on his back has two sussy little crewmates as decoration on his pommel, as found by Trylebyfire.
THIRD PANEL
2: Isaac's kinesis meter is quite low. I guess he must have used it in order to survive the battle royale, A Sad Fat Dragon with No Friends.
3: If you look closely at Geralt's armpit, you can spot Balthazar sitting among the doggos. Which is fittihg, since he kind of was a little dog to me, Spirit of Gotham.
FOURTH PANEL
4: Yes, once again, one of the hands is playing the gotcha game. It's the one closest to Sif's back in this case. Got 'em again, Adell Robertson.
5: "A MONKEY"? You better treat my boy Spanky with some respect, Pokedude14. But yes, he is casually strolling by with his little blue backpack in the background of this panel.
6: Parappa's regular frog on his hat is replaced by Mr. Frog from Smiling Friends.
SIXTH PANEL
7: One of the doggos is wielding a little plastic butter knife. Hey, he's trying. Also not intended as a Fallout reference, Generic Hero.
8: This week's loss is visible in the red Jet Force Gemini gun to the left of this panel! Good eyes, Ethan Cross.
SEVENTH PANEL
9: This week's obscure retro character is Frankie from JumpStart 1st Grade (1995). He's walking with the other dogs in this panel. I have no idea how well-known this guy is, but I'm glad you recognized him, Michael Alessandro!
EIGHTH PANEL
10: Miep is looking at the dogs quite angrily from behind a palm tree in the background. Well, she is a cat, after all, Brandon Digwood.
11: The 末 kanji is once again carved into a tree in this panel, as mentioned by Lord Circe.
Details that have not been found are marked italic.
Comments
Parappa has the Golden Gun from Goldeneye. (I assume all the weapons are references but that's the only one I know).

2024-05-24 15:51:43 +0000 UTCI don't know about crewmate. It looks like an imposter on Geralt's pommel.

A Sad Fat Dragon with No Friends
2024-05-24 14:06:40 +0000 UTCMiep is looking down angrily at the pack of dogs in Panel 8. I wonder why?
Brandon Digwood
2024-05-24 14:04:13 +0000 UTCOne of the dogs is wielding a butter knife, both as a goof and to reference Fallout containing knives as random junk the player can collect.
Generic Hero
2024-05-24 14:03:05 +0000 UTCFrankie from Jumpstart is in the second to last panel
Michael Alessandro
