Trivia

 * In the early drafts of Dawn of the Supernova Spies, Greg Burson was planned to voice Prof. Ezekiel Roares, but after a certain incident that caused him to be fired, he has been replaced by Joe Alaskey, who already inherited most of his Warner Bros. roles (especially Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck).
