• In "Together Forever" it is revealed that Carter Hall once lived a life as a Martian.

Trivia

• Harley Quinn tricked Captain Boomerang into quoting a line from Crocodile Dundee.
• In "A Tale of Two Teen Titans", Avery Ho makes an indirect reference to Naruto when Wallace West shows the costume he chose for the date. His outfit and pose are reminiscent of the titular character, Naruto Uzumaki.
