 * Action Girl - Tex Ryder, Brooklyn Betty and, to an extent, Polly Perkins
 * Alternate Universe - splitting the difference between the world of Sky Captain and Crimson Skies.
 * Anachronism Stew / Hollywood History - there's just no way around it. Fortunately, actual dates never seem to get mentioned.
 * Author Appeal - because I just love the idea of zeppelin aircraft carriers.
 * Big Bad - Doctor Marmole.
 * Cool Airship - The Pandora.
 * Cool Plane - lots. The ISA Devastators of the Fortune Hunters and the Curtiss P-40 Warhawks of the Flying Legion are the most obvious.
 * Crossover - the basic premise.
 * The Empire - the British Empire still exists, and her naval/zeppelin forces are quite respectable. But not evil. At all.
 * Five-Man Band - The active Fortune Hunters kind of qualify for this.
 * Intrepid Reporter - Polly Perkins, the Chronicle.
 * You're Insane! - people say this to Dr Marmole a lot.
 * Zeppelins from Another World - because, you know, it's Sky Captain and Crimson Skies. There's a lot of zeppelins.
