** Similarly, before the Jubilee we know debuted, there was an unrelated one-shot character with the same name and power (and even introduced herself with a similar line.) Evidently, it was a "wanted to reuse that character, but it wouldn't work with the way the older story ended" case.
* Fleetway Comics published stories about a kid who played practical jokes on people called...wait for it...[[The Joker|Joker]]. No comment...
* When most comic fans hear the name "Starfire", they think of [[Green-Skinned Space Babe|a hot alien babe with orange skin]], who wears a [[Stripperiffic]] outfit and who is usually [[Most Common Superpower|stacked enough]] to rival [[Power Girl]].

* There seems to be no relation between Cain Marko (aka [[X-Men|The Juggernaut]]) and Flint Marko (aka [[Spider-Man|The Sandman]]), apart from the fact that both have fought [[Spider-Man]] and were co-created by [[Stan Lee]]. Flint Marko's name has since been retconned.
