Behind the scenes

• The character of Hitchcock is a reference to Alfred Hitchcock, a real-world movie director well known for his suspense and thriller movies. His career, spanning 6 decades, led to a filmography of more than 50 directorial works; many of his films are considered classics and inspired generations of filmmakers, and his cinematography originated some of the techniques still used in movies to this day.
• "Murder on the Titanic" is a reference to the real Alfred Hitchcock's cancelled movie project with the working title Titanic, which never came into production and was left on the writing stages in 1939.
• As it was never explicitly mentioned, it might be that on Earth-19 Hitchcock's name or stage name was not Alfred, which was the case of his Earth-1 doppelgänger.
