Disclose Notes: Brent Eric Anderson credited for "insight & design"; John G. Roshell & Jimmy Betancourt of Comicraft credited for "lettering & design."

Biro Island Penitentiary is named for Charles Biro, most often associated with crime comics; Goscinny's is named after Rene Goscinny, writer of Asterix.

It's not made clear which men are part of which "clotheshorse" group. However, Ned Carroway is a member of The Sweet Adelines, Ace High and the Gambling Men, The Gatsbys, the Mount Rushmore Four, and the Menagerie Gang.
