Trivia
- Tommy Tomorrow story: It is mentioned in this story that Tommy Tomorrow is married and fathered at least two children.
- Actually, the collision of a comet with the sun would not cause any damage to the Earth (given the distance and gigantic size of the Sun in relation to the comet), then the whole story would be to rain in the wet if applied to the real world. However, it may be that the laws of physics act differently in the Universe of the Earth-54.
