Notes/trivia[]
- Bandit is absent.
- Closed captioning refers to the computer voice as Iris, yet the computer never spoke within Questworld, which has a female voice by B.J. Ward.
- In her book Obsessive, Intrusive, Magical Thinking, author Marianne Eloise describes her traumatic experience of seeing the episode "Heroes" at four years old, and she says this episode's Medusa in "the single most horrific depiction of Medusa to ever exist."[1]
Goofs[]
- In an attempt to be kid-friendly, the private area of the Apollo statue has been covered with a leaf, as if it was actually carved in.
- Somehow Surd expects Bandit to get into Questworld. While he may have just been goading Jonny, it's still a pretty ridiculous thing to say.
