Production

Filming
Phil being hit by a blimp is reused from the previous episode, "Juror in Court".
Music
The music is composed by Michael Kohler.
Behind the scenes
- The episode title is a reference to "The Death of Superman" arc by DC Comics. Nikron is a parody of Doomsday, who was able to kill Superman. In the former, their confrontation leads to both of their deaths, while in the latter, Nitron and Harvey die for different reasons.
- This episode is double the length of a regular episode.
- It begins with a recap of the aforementioned previous episode.
- Phil was believed to have been killed in "Babysitter".
- The blimp advertises a bald eagle logo associated with The Colbert Report, hosted by Stephen Colbert.
- Port St. Charles seems to be a parody of Cape St. Charles.
- Potamus can still turn into "the creature" after his radioactive consumption in "Incredible Hippo".
- Harvey refers to the Bronzoluxe Tanning Crème he used in "SPF".
- The way the Bear leaves Harvey's wake is a parody of the ending of the TV series Cheers.
Errors
- Harvey's 38 cases don't include Hair Bear presumably because that ended in a mistrial.
- The billboard says "Old Dirty Carny" when it's supposed to be Ol' Dirty Carny.
Home availability
- This is free to watch on the US geo-restricted Adult Swim website.
