### Cultural references

* Blue Falcon and Dynomutt are main characters in Hanna-Barbera's *Dynomutt, Dog Wonder*, which was originally a part of *The Scooby-Doo/Dynomutt Hour*.

* While Dynomutt retains his personality from the original *Dynomutt* series, the Blue Falcon is portrayed as a gritty and violent vigilante, like the Batman from the comic book, *The Dark Knight Returns*.
* Blue Falcon's line about seventeen ways to incapacitate them, all of which hurt, parodies a line from *The Dark Knight Returns*, "There are seven working defenses from this position: three of them disarm with minimal contact, three of them kill, one of them... hurts."
