From the sound of your list, Amethyst, I think I've done an okay job of avoiding the trite stuff. I still make comics, but they are for personal satisfaction only (although I am doing a comic for a client currently :chug). One of my main influences is Patrick Nagel - I loved the simple color palette he uses and I often use flat colors in my vector pieces. I don't exactly copy his style, but I am influenced by it. Here's an example of mixing his style and mine:

Sadly, my best ideas are found either the day before a deadline or when it's 4 in the morning and I'm exhausted or I have one of my random bursts of energy and I'm hyper. I can't count how many 'flashes of genius' I've had at the ass-crack of dawn. I tend to bury my head in my instructor's copies of Communication Arts every week to find inspiration, from which I usually find five or six interesting artists to research. Some of the artists you mentioned I have never heard of, so I will definitely look into those.
