Only tangentially related to SpaceX. Just found it uncanny that comic versions of reentry capsules look like Dragon2s now.
Do you mean to say "re-entry capsules like the Dragon look like the Apollo capsule?"
I don't see anything distinctive that makes it look like the Dragon. No round top covering the docking port, no thrusters at the base.
That could be any American re-entry capsule since the apollo era, including the Boeing Starliner.
But it looks distinctly not like SpaceX Dragon 2.
