- Morrison's criticism of the dark and somber superhero trend in the 1990s is layered into the subtext of the story
- Morrison refers to this series along with The Invisibles and The Filth as a "hypersigil" trilogy, a term coined by Morrison that refers to a work of art with its own willpower to persist in delivering its meaning
