** The way Doctor Doom uses his FreakyFridayFlip ability in the climax is almost identical to what Captain Ginyu from ''Manga/DragonBall'' did against Goku — crushing his body's heart ''then'' swapping bodies to cripple the opponent — with the key difference that Ginyu did it to his own while trying to take Goku's for himself, whereas Doom did it after swapping to Lex's body for a moment, before going back to his own. On top of that, Boomstick outright refers to said power as "pulling a Captain Ginyu" in the post-battle commentary.
