Additional Info
Trivia
- The title of issue #150 is most likely a reference to The Death of Superman storyline, which ended with Superman being alive.
- "The Dark 'Naut Returns" is a reference to Batman aka The Dark Knight.
- Space Boy is one of the choices given to Free Waterfall III to identify as a series that has not run for one thousand issues. While the answer wasn't revealled, there is a 66% chance that this was one of the long running comics. But given that one of the series ended in 1999 this series most likely reached issue #1000 by the year 3002.
