| 3 | * CareerResurrection: Jim Lee was one of the creators who helped usher in independently-owned comics with Creator/ImageComics and was a popular artist during TheNineties thanks to his work on ''X-Men''. After this though, he fell into relative mediocrity with little to no notable additions to his resume. Then came ''Hush'' and his career was revived in a big way, leading to him eventually being granted the position of DC's co-publisher. |
| 4 | * LimitedSpecialCollectorsUltimateEdition: DC’s first big return to these since those carefree days of the 90s. They went through about six reprints of the Superman-vs-Batman issue (#612) based on the cover alone. |
| 5 | * RealitySubtext: The instigator for this whole plot is that [[spoiler:the Riddler]] learned he had cancer and broke into one of the Lazarus Pits to heal himself, whereupon the Pits' insanity-inducing chemicals gave him the mental clarity to figure out Batman's secret identity. In real-life, this story was published around the time Jeph Loeb's son Sam was first diagnosed with cancer - [[HarsherInHindsight which would ultimately take his life a few years later]]. Really brought home when [[spoiler:ComicBook/TheRiddler]] explains it all at the end. |

| 7 | * WhatCouldHaveBeen: Loeb had originally planned a six-issue followup addressing dangling plot-threads like Harvey Dent's 11th-hour reformation; these plans were apparently important enough that Dent was shelved for ''three years'' afterward, only returning (and [[StatusQuoIsGod getting re-scarred]]) after ''ComicBook/InfiniteCrisis'' rearranged the DCU. |
