Behind the Scenes

• In addition to credits, the text CS-2 on the first page indicates that it is the second story drawn by César Spadari. This practice of indicating the creators by initials and a serial number on the first page is still used on some comic strips produced in Sweden, but was abandoned rather quickly for "The Phantom".
