- Alternative Character Interpretation: In "Luthor's Loco Looking Glass", Luthor (escaping after having left Jimmy Olsen in a Death Trap) taunts Superman that, "You'll never find your friend or me." Was he just trying to torment his nemesis, or was he trying to distract Superman (knowing that Supes would put more value on saving a hostage than capturing the villain)? Either way, it failed.
- Funny Moments: In "Luthor's Loco Looking Glass", Luthor is making his escape through a Tunnel of Love filled with horror figures. He gloats that none of this can scare him. At exactly that point, he pulls up to the shadowy silhouette of a new figure, Superman himself, who proves him wrong.
- Genius Bonus: The title of "Can a Luthor Change His Spots?" works even if all one knows is the phrase "can a leopard change his spots?" However, it's even more apropos if the viewer knows the full verse (Jeremiah 13:23), which places a hardened evildoer beginning to do the right thing (as Lex pretends he's doing) on equal likelihood with a leopard or a human changing their fur/skin color.
- Hilarious in Hindsight: I.C. Harris, the Parasite expy from "The Pernicious Parasite", bears a striking resemblance to the late Brion James, who voiced the actual Parasite in Superman: The Animated Series.
