Subject Matter
Indicia, comic credits, production credits, creation note, dedication by Michael Turner to his mother, called "For Grace," and special thanks. On a blue background are printed the words: "There are two worlds, the one we know, and the one below." The words are repeated in light blue, digitally manipulated to evoke waves, behind the plain white print of the full statement. Over the top is superimposed a small photograph, filtered in a yellow-orange hue, depicting an ocean with a low sun spilling its light across still waters.

"A Special Thanks to:
Richard Isanove for his heroic last minute assistance to help finish the coloring on this book.
Nathan Cabrera for volunteering to help prep pages, temporarily keeping Michael out of Peter's hair (or lack thereof) and letting him get some work done.
We owe you beers."

From the Top Cow Productions credits: "Nicholas Chun: aquarian production manager, Renae Geerlings: would look good in a string bikini, and Peter Steigerwald: would look better in a string bikini."
