- Fear appears for the fifth time.[2] She no longer breaks the Fourth Wall to address the readers, but remains In-Universe, like any other character.
- Blackhawk: "The Blackhawks don't like to use guns ... but this seems like a special case, Hendrickson!" That's different. Up until now, the Blackhawks have used guns with gusto and great enthusiasm, and extremely effectively; this is the first mention of any notion to the contrary.
- Ra-Ameth and Princess Noma lived and supposedly died around 2500 BC, but are alive in 1948.
- Blackhawk and his team know the secret location of their hidden throne room, and have sworn to tell no-one.
- They both speak and understand English, and Princess Noma wears lipstick.
