- Warlock only appears on the cover of this issue.
- A D'bari is seen but not named.
- The Skrulls are trapped in their forms due to a hyper-wave bomb being detonated in Avengers Annual #14 and Fantastic Four Annual #19.
- Rekxor, the Skrull mouse implied to be stalking Rahne, has never been seen since this issue.
