On page 6 of the story, Doc digs up the old mind-reading
device he tested out on Marty in 1955 in
Back to the Future.
On page 9 of the story, Doc tells George he's going to
Cyrano de Bergerac him. He is thinking of the story of
the well-known 1897 play Cyrano
de Bergerac, in which the poet Cyrano whispers lines to
his friend Christian to help him woo the woman he desires.
In the novelization of
Back to the Future,
Marty considers something like this to get George a date
with Lorraine.
On page 12 of the story, panel 2, it looks like Doc has an
electric chair in his lab! This is what he built his
Static-O-Matic Electric Hair Chair out of. He also mentions
this invention in
"When Marty Met Emmett".
On page 13, panel 6, Lorraine is erroneously drawn with 6 fingers on her
right hand!
On page 14, George and Lorraine patch things up and he
invites her to go see the new film From the Earth to the
Moon. This was a 1958 film adaptation of the 1865 Jules
Verne novel.
