* Phantom Limb manages to be a) a tribute to the superhero ComicStrip/ThePhantom, b) a direct descendant of pulp criminal antihero Franchise/{{Fantomas}}, and c) a joke on "Phantom Limb Syndrome" at the same time.

** It just dawned on me. Captain Sunshine is an obvious expy of Franchise/{{Batman}}[=/=]Franchise/{{Superman}} who horribly mourns the loss of [=WonderBoy=] after the Monarch kills him. In "Self Medication", it's shown that the supposedly dead [=WonderBoy=] wasn't the original (or first) one. Additionally, Captain Sunshine believes the Monarch to be "invulnerable" due to a mishap discussed in the Season 3 Premiere and confirmed in Season 4. Captain Sunshine is Batman, The Monarch is ComicBook/TheJoker (another supposedly [[JokerImmunity death-proof villain]]), dead [=WonderBoy=] is Jason Todd (2nd ComicBook/{{Robin}}), and if you go re-watch the scene in "Handsome Ransom" between the Monarch and Sunshine, it suddenly works on all kinds of new levels.

* The brothers' personalities are reflected in their outfits in the early seasons. Hank dresses like [[Franchise/ScoobyDoo Freddie Jones]] with ComicBook/{{Aquaman}} pajamas -- he JumpedAtTheCall and was born for the life of an adventurer. In contrast, Dean's dressed as Franchise/SpiderMan in his pajamas and Peter Parker in his regular clothes -- he never asked for this life but rolls with it as best he can, often pining for a normal life.

* While it's still possibly the result of his... unique origin, knowing that the [[DealWithTheDevil Investors]] helped back Jonas Jr.'s construction of Gargantua-2, it seems very clear how Jonas developed his fatal cancer in the first place.

* The show's main theme is "failure". In one episode, Pete and Billy live in a trailer in a failed land development, according to the establishing shot. So the characters are failures, they live in a stereotypical failure home (which is on bricks, so it can't even move), and ''the land they live on for miles around'' is a failure.
