Trivia
- The series was designed to be able to consistently fill the gap between the end of World War II and the debut of the Fantastic Four:
- John Byrne: Roger Stern and I were very careful to avoid any dates or allusions to real world events as we got closer and closer to the "present" in LOST GENERATION. The idea was that the earlier stories would be tied to actual history -- like the Apollo XI launch and the Nixon administration -- but the latter stories would be structured so they could streeeeeettttttch to fit the growing gap.
