  • Creator's Favorite Episode: Framk Maneiro, Batman's Latin American voice actor in Batman: The Animated Series, has called this his favorite episode to dub in a convention. Although he couldn't remember the name of the episode, he did remember the part of Bruce's illusion, calling it the saddest part to ever voice involving The Caped Crusader.
  • What Could Have Been:
    • There are some rumors going around that the story was supposed to be about Martian Manhunter. If so, then the protagonist's characterization as an alien who wants his perfect life to be on his revitalized home planet makes a lot of sense.note 
    • In his "Alan Moore's Writing for Comics!" essay, Alan Moore revealed the story was supposed to feature Supergirl in Wonder Woman's role, but he wasn't allowed to use the former due to her impending death: "...I originally wanted to use Supergirl but then Julie Schwartz informed me that she'd be popping her bright red clogs during Crisis on Infinite Earths and suggested that I use Wonder Woman instead."
  • Word of God: J.M. Dematteis, writer of the animated adaptation:
    I don't think he'd be happier on Krypton. It's just that Superman never really knew Krypton and had a profound longing to experience that part of his history. Krypton is part of him but Earth, I think, is a bigger part.
