* WhatCouldHaveBeen: The original pitch was that the story was supposed to be a sequel to ''Literature/SmugglersRun'', featuring Lando as the main character with a supporting cast of Delia, Commander Beck, and Torrent. While Lucasfilm approved it, Rucka changed his mind after seeing Phil Noto's cover art for the first issue, which depicted the final scene of the Original Trilogy heroes together in ''Film/ReturnOfTheJedi'', wanting to avoid CoversAlwaysLie since Lando was the only one out of all of them with a prominent role in the pitch.
* WrittenByCastMember: It was Oscar Isaac's idea to have Poe be from Yavin 4, as the Yavin 4 scenes from ''Film/ANewHope'' were filmed in Guatemala, [[ActorSharedBackground where Oscar himself was born]]. Lucasfilm relayed this to Rucka, who had the Dameron family move to Yavin 4 at the end of ''Shattered Empire''.
