- Cowboy BeBop at His Computer: The first arc has a scene set in suburban Los Angeles that includes a cameo from Woody Allen. Allen is notorious for his hatred of LA.
- Executive Meddling: Marvel shot down "Di Another Day", a storyline that would have featured Princess Di coming back from the dead and joining the team, because of outrage from the United Kingdom... after Milligan and Allred had already done much of the scripting and art for it. Consequently, the arc was hastily cobbled into "Back from the Dead", a convoluted, messy storyline in which a generic celebrity comes back from the dead and joins the team.
- Schedule Slip: After Marvel vetoed "Di Another Day", Milligan and Allred were forced to rework it into the arc called "Back from the Dead". The resultant delays were a major factor in the book's dropping sales and eventual cancellation.
- Torch the Franchise and Run: Peter Milligan bloodily slaughtered all the surviving team members in the book's final issue. Not that this stopped him from revisiting some of them for a miniseries set in the afterlife, or revisiting some characters for X-Cellent.
