• Promoted Fanboy: Several examples, most prominently current head writer Ian Flynn who was known as the author of a popular fan comic Other-M before getting hired as head writer.
  • What Could Have Been: The original plot for "Endgame" really did involve Sally's demise -- her apparent restoration later on was to have been a robot double, the truth only slowly coming out later as "Sally" began to act increasingly suspicious and out-of-character.
    • Both Karl Bollers and Ken Penders have made public their plans for the comic had their employment at Archie continued.
    • Ian Flynn originally intended to have Tommy Turtle be killed of by E-123 Omega, but Executive Meddling had that changed to Snively instead. In fact, Executive Meddling kept him from appearing in the comic for some time since Karl Bollers tried to put him in. It wasn't until issue 3 of Sonic Universe that he made an appearance.
