Concept and Creation
The Sander Cohen character was based on several real-world figures. Cohen's last name was influenced by real life entertainer George M. Cohan, who was a notable playwright, composer, lyricist, actor, singer and dancer. His physical appearance, however, was based on the surrealist artist Salvador Dalí. Cohen was described as a "horrible songwriter" by Ken Levine in an interview for CVG.
