Trivia
- Diana's home is shown for the first time in the strip, and she is seen living in an apartment in an unnamed city, together with her mother and uncle. The Phantom also pays the Palmer home his first visit.
- Diana's uncle Dave makes his first appearance. Not much information is given about him - his last name and his exact relationship to Diana isn't mentioned, nor is his occupation, although it's hinted that he has traveled a lot.
- Uncle Dave meets The Phantom for the first time, and, notably, is just as opposed to his relationship with Diana as Mrs. Palmer is.
- For the first time Mrs. Palmer's first name is given as "Lily". However, it would keep on changing for yet some years, before being uncontradicted.
- As Diana and her family is arrested for espionage, Mrs. Palmer states that they are "a very distinguished family".
- The Phantom's suit is said to be gray.
- This story is the first ever to end with Diana and The Phantom happy together.
Behind the scenes
