Behind the scenes

 * On the Hubris Comics receptionist terminal, under the "release schedule" section, it says that the comic "Captain Cosmos: Truth, justice and the Space-American way" is due for release in June. This is a reference to Superman's famous catchphrase; "Truth, justice, and the American way."


 * The Adventures of Captain Cosmos is likely inspired by Captain Video and His Video Rangers a popular science fiction show that ran from June 27, 1949 to April 1, 1955 Monday through Saturday at 7 PM ET but was later scaled back to only Monday through Friday in the same time slot. Of the 1,537 episodes made not even 50 survive.
 * The show aired at 8:00 PM on Thursdays. This may be a reference to the original series of Star Trek, which aired in the same time-slot during its first two seasons.
 * Jangles might be a reference to the similarly orange-spacesuited monkey sidekick, Mona, in the 1964 film Robinson Crusoe on Mars. The genre is the same, and the suit is of a similar design with the illogically exposed tail.
