Didja Notice?
The story takes place in Stalback, Poland. This is a small
village (Stabławki) in northeast Poland.
Two Russian POWs (prisoners of war) escape from Stalag I-A.
This was an actual German prisoner-of-war camp during World
War II, located in Stalback.
The Terminator's target turns out to be Masha Alekseev in
the POW camp. Alekseev was previously seen (in the future)
in "Whiskey Dark".
On page 11, Benedict says, "Fantastisch." This is
German for "Fantastic."
This story seems to indicate the origin of the T-800 CPU
seen in
"Whiskey Dark". The German
officer who finds the CPU in the aftermath of the
destruction of the Terminator wears the emblem of the Nazi
SS (Schutzstaffel), the secret police of Nazi
Germany from 1925-1945.
