2 | ** The Bat-Editors constantly threatened to yank Robin from the book unless the writers obeyed their edicts on how he could be featured; most notably, Robin could not be used in any battle that took place in public, according to the "urban legend" policy in the Bat-books. |
3 | ** This resulted in a couple of TakeThat jokes during a reality show story ("Did the all-concealing shadows just say ouch?"), including Robin creating the hero identity of "Mr. Sarcastic," a shaved-head ShoutOut to [[ComicBook/{{Transmetropolitan}} Spider Jerusalem]] (and possibly to Protector, a Robin expy created for 80's ''ComicBook/TeenTitans'' PSA comics when licensing contracts prevented the Boy Wonder's use). |

5 | * TheMerch: The last few waves of Creator/{{Hasbro}}'s ''JLA'' toyline, intended to act as this to ''ComicBook/JLA1997'' also acted as this for this series, including figures of Robin, Superboy, Impulse, and Red Tornado. |
6 | * RecursiveAdaptation: The ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans2003'' cartoon was initially planned as an adaptation of ''Young Justice'', but the number of {{Legacy Character}}s was too much of a problem. The solution: ReVision the Wolfman-Perez Titans in the style of ''Young Justice''! |
7 | ** And now we got a ReVision of ''Young Justice'' more in line with Geoff Johns' Titans. Make of that what you will. |
8 | * ShoutOut: Given the light hearted tone of the book they were able to cram these in at their leisure: |
9 | ** Cassie's room contains a slew of shoutouts via thinly retitled band and TV-show posters (Frontstreet Boys=Music/BackstreetBoys, Space Girls=Music/SpiceGirls, ''Dalton's Creek''=''Series/DawsonsCreek'', ''Wendy the Werewolf Stalker''=''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'') and a recolored [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} Pikachu]] toy. |
10 | ** In Issue 20 Klarion watches the ParallelPornTitle ''The Bare Witch Project'' referencing ''Film/TheBlairWitchProject'' |
11 | ** The "Wendy the Werewolf Stalker" show the team watches is a homage to ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer''. |
12 | ** The cover of issue 35 states Lex Wants You! with Lex Luthor pointing at the viewer in front of an American flag. |
13 | ** The cover of issue 48 has the text ComicBook/ADeathInTheFamily prominently displayed although the issue's actual title is "Fighting Maad, Part 2: D.O.A.". |
14 | ** The cover of issue 49 has Empress shouting [[MyNameIsInigoMontoya My name is Empress]]. YouKilledMyFather. [[PrepareToDie Prepare to DIE]]! Missing only the Hello! of Inigo Montoya's trope laden quote from ''Film/ThePrincessBride''. |
15 | * ToylessToylineCharacter: The ''JLA'' toyline didn't include Lagoon Boy, the Ray, or the female members of the team. |
