For the record, Jack McGee was from the TV show, and never appeared in the comic (as an aside: I was quite vocal about my wish for a scene with Rick and Jack together in TIH...I honestly think Louis Letterier made it Jim Wilson instead just to bust my chops, and I don't even know the guy.)
With Bill Bixby appearing on tv in the film, the Lonely Man theme being played at one point, and the overall approach being a bit more in line with the series than the Ang Lee film ever attempted, the Jack McGee reference being dropped felt very much in place.
Also, Rick's name appears during the opening credits on a file listing Banner's known contacts...hopefully something was/is planned for the character in the future.
Ah, much like some names popping up on the computer screen in X2.
