Annotations
- It is mentioned that absinthe is in the Lower City
- This is the sixteenth issue of the series in which Cerebus does not appear. It last happened last issue, and happens again in issue 143.
- p. 4 - 6: On page 4 the chairs appear straight and solid, but on page 5 the chair and edge of the wall starts to bend and bow. When asked how he is, Melmoth replies a slight giddiness, and when we next see the wall and chair they are back to normal.
- p. 6: Melmoth states that "the title isn't his. . .I'm certain of that" in reference to "The Daughter of Palnu". Melmoth is correct, in issue 127 Oscar writes a letter in which he makes reference to the correct title: Jaka's Story.
