* [[Ben Templeton]] appears in the ''[[Wormwood Gentleman Corpse]]'' issue "Segue to Destruction" at the Dead Alley, where Wormwood describes him as "my biographer". ''None'' of the cast have any respect for him at all, and mock his defensively citing his three Eisner nominations: "No idea what those are, but he seems obsessed with them."

* The Black Bomber was likely one of [[DC Comics]]' worst ideas. This was a hero who was once a white man and a bigot, who would turn into a black man with super-powers under stress; with no memory of his other identity while in this state, he would fight crime as the Black Bomber. [[Sarcasm Mode| Great idea]], right? [[Dude, Not Funny| Uhm, wrong]], Comics historian Don Markstein later described the character as "an insult to practically everybody with any point of view at all.” The title was never released, but fortunately a lot of it inspired the creation of groundbreaking character [[Black Lightning]]. Still, DC has made light of this mistake at least once; as [[Dwayne McDuffie]] had a similar character - called the Brown Bomber - try to impress [[Vixen]] in a ''[[Justice League]]'' comic. She wasn’t impressed, brushing him off as a lame joke.
