Comment(s):

Lois' former apartment was located at 55 Broome Street; Clark's former apartment was located at 344 Clinton Street; their new apartment is at 1938 Sullivan Place in Metropolis (1938 is a tribute to the year Superman started publication and Vin Sullivan was the first editor of Action Comics).
Superman goes off on an unspecified Justice League mission during this story.
A passenger on Rock's bus trip is reading The Death and Life of Superman, the novelization of Superman's fatal battle with Doomsday written by Roger Stern.
