Trivia
- According to the inscription on the gravestone that King Tut prepared for the Dynamic Duo, this story takes place in 1969. This would set it after the third season of the television series, which concluded in March 1968.
- This issue features numerous easter eggs referring to DC Comics. At Gotham Cemetery, the graves of Cyrus Gold, Boston Brand and James Craddock are seen. In other scenes, Gotham City Public Library, the Monarch Theater, Queen Industries and the Ventriloquist Club make cameo appearances in the background. A giant billboard advertising "Matt Hagen in Mud Pack" is also visible in the background of one panel, alluding to the second Clayface and the team he later joined.
- The Clavicle Club is a reference to the episode "Nora Clavicle and the Ladies' Crime Club" from the third season of Batman. Nora Clavicle herself appears to be among the citizens who get infected with the Osiris Virus.
