Cultural references
- In the beginning, Shaggy gets directions from Zandor of the Herculoids, while Igoo looks on (as an unmasked actor).
- Clayton Lonney seems to be an reference to Lon Chaney, a famous horror movie actor.
- Lucas Spiegel's name is a play on filmmakers George Lucas and Steven Spielberg, and also resembles the former, somewhat.
- Claws is a parody of the film Jaws, directed by Spielberg.
- Cartoon Network Studios is a real animation studio, which produces content for its own channel, Cartoon Network.
- Tom Burden, the director, and Tim Sevine, the makeup artist, are recurring characters of John Rozum that he has used in several other stories, but he says "they didn't always look the same."[1]
Reprints
- Scooby-Doo, Where Are You? #5 (March 2011).
Coloring mistakes
- None known.
Inconsistencies/continuity errors and/or goofs/oddities
- Fred mistakenly says "Tom" as the first name of Tim Sevine, but the latter is correct, as seen in the short How to Make a Monster. There's already a Tom Burden, and it would be odd to have two Toms in the same story.
Reception
Ray Tate of Comics Bulletin's Line of Fire Reviews, says Joe Staton does a "smashing storyboard."[2]
