Have you found some obscure reference or detail in this comic? A JoJo reference? A sneaky little Loss? A callback to a previous comic? Let us know what you've found in the comments! Every detail that has been found will be added to the list below. Once everything has been found, this comic will officially be marked with "all details found".
Link to the comic for your convenience
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.
For future Hidden Details: I won't count details if you don't mention specifically where you found them AND in which panel. Otherwise it'll become way too easy to just blurt "crewmate in the sixth panel!" for easy points.
FIRST PANEL
1: There's a little Aerocuda flying by in the background, as mentioned by Lord Circe. Initially I just drew some bird shapes to fill the empty space, but then I realized an Aerocuda would be cooler.
SECOND PANEL
2: We did indeed all lost the game, Generic Hero. "THE GAME" is spelled on the wooden panels of the stage.
3: To the right of Pikachu, we can spot a sculpture of a mushroom enemy from Dark Souls. Wonder how he ended up in Hyrule, of all places.
4: This week's loss is visible on the blue spots of Kilton's tunic.
5: Apparently, Link and Pikachu also snapped a picture of Villager, who is still commanding the monsters of Hyrule. You can see part of him to the left of Hudson.
THIRD PANEL
6: The Korok on top of the pillar is there in the third panel as well, Tolis. That Korok is actually there in the game by the way.
7: Also, Miep comes strolling in the background, as mentioned by Ethan Cross.
FOURTH PANEL
8: ...and shortly after that, Balthazar follows Miep! Good catch, Brandon Digwood!
FIFTH PANEL
9:...and after that, Leentje follows where Miep and Balthazar went before her!
SEVENTH PANEL
10: Ha, yeah! Glad people recognize the Hell Valley Sky Trees (a creepy texture in Super Mario Galaxy 2 that has spawned bunch of theories and creepypastas), Spirit of Gotham!
EIGHTH PANEL
11: This week's crewmate is on the Lynel's right (mace) horn in this panel. Which is interesting, because it wasn't there in the second panel.
12: Yeah, this was a mistake I made previously, GreninjaMan! I barely have time to play games so it took me a long time to figure out that Lynels look differently in Tears of the Kingdom, and by then I had already drawn "classic" Lynels, so I have to repeat that mistake every time I draw Young Link's Lynel gang.
Details that have not been found are marked italic.

The blue Lynel at the end is actually from Botw as opposed to Totk (you can tell by the horn)

Hudson put Young Link on the Lynel Statue, foreshadowing the ending

That one korok in the center of town is actually in the game... he never leaves. Ever
