Notes
- Batman being referred to as "out of picture" by Black Lightning implies that this issue takes place after the Dark Knight was displaced to an alternate universe by Failsafe in the epilogue of Batman (Volume 3) #130.
- As Mercy Graves doesn't seem to be a metahuman yet, this story as well as Failsafe's storyline must take place before Lazarus Planet.
Trivia
- Many past events are mentioned in this issue, including:
- Red Hood taking down Killer Croc's operation on The Hill in Red Hood #52;
- Leviathan/Mark Shaw destroying all the agencies during the Event Leviathan;
- Red Hood leading the Task Force Z in Task Force Z (Volume 1);
- President Bendix being overthrown by Superman/Jon Kent in Superman: Son of Kal-El #15.
