Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This special was intended as a backdoor pilot for a fourth season that never happened, leaving Jenny stranded in production limbo.
The Cluster Prime design pulls heavily from 1939's World's Fair futurism—basically the animators watched Metropolis once and said 'yes, but make it sparkly.'
