Trivia

• In the firehouse, the Ghostbusters are shown to have both Ghostbusters and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles arcade machines in the background.
  • One of the games is Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Arcade Game. In the real world, the arcade machine version was simply called Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles; the title Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Arcade Game was only used for the 1990 Nintendo Entertainment System port of that game to distinguish it from the different previously-released 1989 NES platformer game Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
• The cover of issue #4 contains multiple easter eggs:
  • There are cameos of characters resembling Ace Duck, Dirtbag, Doctor El, Li Yang, Man Ray, Jack Marlin, Mondo Gecko, April O'Neil and Wingnut.
  • The police officer resembling Li Yang is glancing in the direction of Michelangelo and Peter Venkman. In issue #3, upon arriving in Zoo Amsterdam, Venkman took off the outer layer of his clothes (his Ghostbusters uniform) and had Mikey put it on so he wouldn't appear naked in a world of anthropomorphic animals wearing clothes. But in the cover art, Mikey is naked, making it ambiguously appear as if the police officer could be checking him out.
