And what would Psykos be a reference to? Kronenbourg's Scanners series?

The Ripper characters look like visual homages to 80's slasher films. Hundred Eyes Octopus is a clear reference to It Came From Beneath The Sea, Mad Doctor Fish are a reference to the Piranah films, Venus Mantrap may be inspired by Day of the Triffids, Sludge Jellyfish is basically The Blob or one of the shoggoths from the Cthulhu mythos.
