(Web of Spider-Man#75 - BTS) - During an unexpected blizzard in New York, Mayor Dinkins declared a state of emergency and urged civilians to remain indoors.

(New Warriors I#16 - BTS) - While battling Terrax the Tamer, Speedball wondered if Mayor Dinkins would appreciate him.

It probably warrants mention in Mayor Dinkins' profile that he's (presumably) David Dinkins, who was Mayor of New York City from 1990 to 1993, thus making him a topical reference.
