Notes & Trivia[]
"Hey, nerf-herders! Headhunter's Holosuite Wiki has a collection of images related to Team 7 1.
- Image Comics publisher is Tony Lobito. Executive director is Larry Marder.
- This issue shipped with a purple background variant cover illustrated by Whilce Portacio and Alex Garner. When combined with other variant covers from WildStorm Productions released this year, it forms a composite image.
- The font used for the credits is a military-style stencil design.
- The WildStorm Effects team consists of Kevin Angus, Nick Bell, Ray Britt, Claudia Chong, Robert Chong, Jeromy Cox, Joe Dunn, Ben Fernandez, Christian Milos, Paul Mobbs, Homer Reyes, Robert Ro, James Rochelle, Jessica Ruffner, and John Uhrich.
- This is the first appearance of Alex Fairchild, Andrew Johnson, Berckmann, and Richard McNamara. All of the other members of Team 7 have made prior appearances in other books.
- Jackson Dane makes reference to Carol Merrill in this issue. Carol Merrill was a model on the TV game show Let's Make a Deal in the 1960s.
- Reference is made to Kreskin in this issue. Also known as "The Amazing Kreskin", he was a stage magician and mentalist who became popular in the early 1970s.
- Michael Cray refers to John Lynch as "Goldilocks", which is taken from the children's story Goldilocks and the Three Bears.
- On the wall of the dead informants' bedroom, there is a poster Jean-Luc Picard from the TV series Star Trek: The Next Generation. Its placement here is anachronistic as the events of this story take place in the 1970s and Star Trek: The Next Generation did not premiere until 1987.
