Didja Notice?

On page 6, when Marty seems to judge him for his time in the slammer, Joey says, "Et tu, Martus?" Et tu is Latin for "and you". The phrase as used here is a reference to "Et tu, Brute?", a line of dialog spoken by Julius Caesar in Shakespeare's play Julius Caesar when Caesar sees that his friend Brutus is one of the men who has come to assassinate him.

Doc claims to Professor Irving that he needs to get a carbonic actuator to complete repairs on the DeLorean time machine and leaves the lab for some time to go find one. This appears to be a fictitious device. In fact, Irving suspects Doc made it up in order to delay going back to 1893 because he's nervous about taking his family through time in the time train.

On page 8, Professor Irving is reading a copy of Science magazine, a peer-reviewed journal.

On pages 11-12, the DeLorean almost runs into a hippy's Volkswagen van in 1972. We'll meet the hippy and his van again in "Time Served" Part 1.

Professor Irving lived in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, home of the U.S. Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory.

This issue reveals that Doc's mother married Carlton Ellsworth some time after her husband, Doc's father, died. The Back to the Future video game by Telltale Games reveals that Doc's father was named Erhardt Brown and was a judge. The DeLorean Time Machine: Doc Brown's Owners' Workshop Manual has information from Doc's journal that Erhardt Gustav Brown died on August 9, 1950 of a heart attack at the age of 62 and that Doc's mother (Sarah) has been estranged from her husband for over a decade by then.
