** One comic has two Sideshow Bobs with the powers of Stretch Dude and Clobber Girl ([[ItMakesSenseInContext long story]]) fight each other over Springfield, with the buildings looking how they look in the game. Gil even makes a cameo asking if anyone wants to buy donuts to speed things up. An editors note was added that name drops the game as well.

** Originally, Kirk was due to appear much earlier in the game, along with Gil and Jacqueline Bouvier. Before being included at level 37, the data for Kirk could be found in the app's coding.
** The nerds actually have names and unlock messages; but for the whole event they only remained as [=NPCs=] that attacked houses and castles, and never became playable.
