It must be noted than most of the characters presented works as conceptual and visual reversed versions from their respective doppelgangers:

  • Savior (Samaritan) comes from a doomed past instead of a apocalyptic future.
  • Stingray (allegedy the Confessor) looks more like a modern investigator instead of a supernatural creature.
  • Herculina (Winged Victory) seems to be inspired by a male god instead of a female one.
  • Goodfellow (The Gentleman) looks more like a rough country peasant than an elegant citydweller Gentleman.
  • Formula-1 (MPH) seems like a classic pilot racer instead of a modern one.
  • Radman (N-Forcer) hides his energy instead of showing it.
  • Ghostman (Black Rapier) dress in white instead of black.
  • Master Motley (Jack-in-the-Box) resembles an european mime as opposed to an american toy.
  • Cutie (Beauty) resembles a classic porcelain doll instead of a plastic one.

It's also known than the adventures of Cosmoville residents are published (in other universes at least) by Spire Comics.
