Notes

  • The Frankenstein's Monster in this story is not Earth-One's Spawn of Frankenstein (as seen in his own backup series in The Phantom Stranger (Volume 2)) and the Dracula in this story is not the Earth-One Dracula (as seen in Beowulf (Volume 1)). Instead, they are both inter-dimensional travelers, from a place the Phantom Stranger describes as "the World of Nightmare".
  • Morgan Edge mentioned to Josh Coyle about three Flying Newsrooms being destroyed in the last six months, one of those being in Superman #320.
