Behind the Scenes
- Around the time when the first Crocco story was published in Sweden, a Sunday story with a similar theme ("Waterman" by Lee Falk, George Olesen and Fred Fredericks) ran in US newspapers.
- The Crocco is one of few Team Fantomen creations that have appeared in newspaper strip stories.
- The appearance of the Crocco creatures is very different in the Team Fantomen stories compared to their appearance in the daily strip. Their original appearance in the comic books was inspired by the horror movie "The Creature from the Black Lagoon".
