When Michelangelo Buonarroti was given the commission to paint the Sistine Chapel in Rome, he covered the ceiling with frescoes. One of those was Creation of Adam, based on the Book of Genesis: with his right hand outstretched, God floats above Adam to touch the man's fingertip. This famous and iconic image is known not only to art lovers but also to the average television viewer. This makes it fair game for allusions, parody, and all sorts of tropey tomfoolery. The "creation" pose is often used in Comic Books, Webcomics, political comics and animated cartoons. As with Michelangelo's Pietà sculpture, the recognizable arrangement of two figures is what makes the trope, although Pietà allusions tend to be poignant, while Creation of Adam is used more often in humorous contexts. |

There's a picture of the original photo itself in episode 11 of Puella Magi Madoka Magica. Apt, since Madoka essentially becomes God and bestows her holiness on Homura. | |

During one of its apocalypse montages, 2012 shows the actual painting cracking down the middle, so that God's hand and Adam's are separated by the split, before the whole chapel collapses. | |

Seen in the opening credits of Death Note, with the symbolic double-whammy of an apple being passed between the Knight Templar Villain Protagonist and the god-figure. This, though, is half symbolism (since the protagonist's moral decline after receiving the titular Artifact of Doom is related to original sin) and half show in-joke (since the god in question is addicted to apples). | |

Michaelangelo himself is depicted striking the pose in a rap battle between the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and their Renaissance namesakes in Epic Rap Battles of History's third season finale. "I'm a rap God, and you can't quite touch me!" | |

The Haunted World of El Superbeasto has a parody of it with Dr. Satan replacing Adam, seen very briefly before Dr. Satan himself turns into a giant devil and shatters the ceiling of the wedding chapel where the painting was. | |

A nude reclining Adam appears as a recurring boss in the (infamous) Cho Aniki series of horizontal shooters. He would later become a playable character in the fighting-game spinoff. | |

In Darkest Dungeon, the icon for the Occultist's Unspeakable Commune camping skill has Adam reaching out to a tentacle in place of God's hand. This is actually subtle foreshadowing to the fact that the Eldritch Abomination under the manor was the creator of humanity. | |

Doctor Who: In "The Fires of Pompeii", the Doctor steps out of his TARDIS to save a doomed family from the title eruption. The TARDIS is unaccountably shining behind him, and then there's a shot of his hand, reaching out for the father's as if he's God and the human is Adam in the painting. | |

The Science of Discworld includes a scene where the Librarian (a wizard transformed into an orangutan) is magically searching for information about evolution and accidentally ends up in Charles Darwin's study while he's in the middle of writing On the Origin of Species. The resulting scene is not illustrated, but one can imagine what it would look like if it were. | |

Zack Snyder's Justice League. During her first fight against Steppenwolf, Wonder Woman loses her sword and the Flash helps her get it back. The sword is falling, Wonder Woman jumps after it to get it back and the Flash runs on the wall in order to reach the sword. He uses his index to push the sword back to Wonder Woman's hand with a little spark of electricity leaving his finger and travelling on the blade up to Wonder Woman's hand. Also, the Flash is human while Wonder Woman is pretty much a Goddess. Later in the movie, in order to jump start the Mother Box to bring Superman Back from the Dead, Barry Allen generates power by charging towards the Mother Box at Super-Speed, reaching out to touch it with a finger. Giving that he's literally creating life, the reference to this trope is obvious. | |
