Trivia / The Free Willies

• Write Who You Know: The author says the 6 main characters were based on him and his friends at the time of the comic's beginning. Although it might have been meant to be Life Embellished at first, it quickly subverts that trope as the plot thickens.
• Fandom Nod: Aaron references My Chemical Romance and he wears a Panic! at the Disco hoodie. In some art he also wears a Slytherin scarf. The tagline "The most mixed up non-delinquents on the block" is from the song Beauty School Dropout in the musical Grease.
