* RapunzelHair: As per the norm, Scream's hair is longer than the entire length of her body, despite Andi having short hair. The third issue even draws several parallels between Andi, Scream, and Literature/{{Rapunzel}}.

* ShipTease: In Issue #6, Andi meets a fellow homeless teen named Guinevere, whose cheerful teasing starts drawing her out of her standoffish shell. The Scream symbiote and Andi are both confused, with the former alternating between warning Andi not to let Guinevere distract her and encouraging her to seek companionship beyond itself; though Andi is worried that anyone who gets close to her will end up StuffedIntoTheFridge.

* CanonWelding: Big Mother -- the purported mother of the dark elf Grendell who fought Literature/{{Beowulf}} -- from ''ComicBook/CaptainMarVell'' is revealed to be a symbiote-dragon, and is the "sister" of the Grendel symbiote-dragon from ''ComicBook/VenomDonnyCates''.
