Sam and Max
From Monkey Island wiki
Sam & Max are a cartoon duo of characters created by Steve Purcell. Purcell worked as one of the graphic-designers on The Secret of Monkey Island and Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge. As a tribute the characters make cameo appearances in the first four games of the series. Sam & Max originally starred in their own comic-strip and were later made into a game by LucasArts under the title Sam & Max Hit the Road.
