Allusions[]
- The character of Barry Allen, aka the Flash was created by writers Robert Kanigher and John Broome and artist Carmine Infantino. He first appeared in Showcase #4 in October, 1956. He began headlining his own series, The Flash in 1959.
- The character of Brie Larvan is based on Bertram Larvan, who is a DC Comics super-villain known as the Bug-Eyed Bandit. He is traditionally a foe of the Atom, and was introduced in The Atom #26 in August, 1966.
- Felicity Smoak and Ray Palmer are characters who both make regular appearances on the companion series Arrow. Actress Emily Bett Rickards is a regular on the series while Brandon Routh is a recurring guest star.
- The Atom's clumsy entrance is accompanied by comments of "It's a bird", and "It's a plane", which are phrases commonly associated with Superman, first popularized in the Adventures of Superman radio series of the 1940s. This is actually a tongue-in-cheek reference to actor Brandon Routh who, in addition to playing Ray Palmer, also played Superman in the 2006 film Superman Returns.
- Cisco Ramon says the line "Bees. Why did it have to be bees?". This is a wink to a famous line of dialogue spoken by Harrison Ford's character, Indiana Jones in Raiders of the Lost Ark. While trapped in a room full of snakes he said, "Snakes. Why did it have to be snakes?".
