    There is also this one written by Jeff Lemire, though it is obviously a work of fiction. It also features the American monkeys Able and Baker: https://imagecomics.com/comics/series/primordial https://imagecomics.com/comics/series/primordial

  Author Nick Abadzis got a lot of responses about the factual, sad fate of Laika in his graphic novel. So much that he wrote several alternate (entirely fictional) endings to the story to make readers feel better. https://www.bigplanetcomics.com/category/comics/the-alternative-endings-to-laika-show https://www.bigplanetcomics.com/category/comics/the-alternat...

  Also in the category of fictional references to Laika, a wonderful episode of Space Dandy (“The Lonely Pooch Planet, Baby”)
