| Notes | Continuity Notes:
The two sailors mention smuggling operations that took them past the Cuban Blockade and trading in Haiping Harbor in China. At the time this story was published there were trade embargos against both Cuba and China due to the then current Cold War. Since then trade between China, Cuba and the United States has gotten less restricted. As such these references should be considered topical references per the Sliding Timescale of Earth-616.
Ralph Roberts mentions his brief stint as a supervillain and his battle with the X-Men from X-Men #31.
This story heavily implies that the government testing nuclear weapons is France. At the time of this story, France had just left NATO in 1966. France has since rejoined NATO in 1996 and no longer tests nuclear weapons. As such this should be considered a topical reference as well.
Continuity Errors:
Cobalt Man states that he heard "unverified reports" that Bruce Banner was the Hulk. Which is a strange thing to say since Banner's double identity has been public knowledge since it was exposed by Rick Jones in Tales to Astonish #77. |
