At the end of each issue, writer Warren Ellis provides background information on the fictional devices, organizations, technological advancements, etc., used in the narrative, as well as the occasional piece of Flash fiction.

All of these things can be recalled and researched in a special "Doktor Sleepless" Mediawiki site.

As with other Avatar titles, each issue comes with a number of variant covers; the majority are by Rodriguez including a variant displaying an unusual warning sign (warning against things such as "psychoactive air" and "Wavy lines ov deth") and Raulo Cáceres produces a wrap-around cover designed to evoke an earlier era, as Ellis said: "Raulo was tasked with producing covers that looked like woodcuts that recalled the late 19th century through to the days of Tesla and James Whale movies."

Famous quotes containing the word issues:

    “How to attain sufficient clarity of thought to meet the terrifying issues now facing us, before it is too late, is ... important. Of one thing I feel reasonably sure: we can’t stop to discuss whether the table has or hasn’t legs when the house is burning down over our heads. Nor do the classics per se seem to furnish the kind of education which fits people to cope with a fast-changing civilization.”
    —Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
