* Many plot elements are derived from [[Arthur Conan Doyle]]'s works. | |||
** Both Laura Lyons and Roger Baskerville are characters from ''[[The Hound of the Baskervilles]]''. Just like 'real' Roger Baskerville, Roger Baskerville in ''The Hound of the Baskervilles'' is an antagonist. | |||
** Professor Presbury, the leader of expedition, is a character from Conan Doyle's {{wi|The Adventure of the Creeping Man}}. | |||
** Conan Doyle says he'd write an adventure story about dinosaurs and a professor. This is a reference to {{wi|The Lost World (Doyle novel)|The Lost World}}, which introduces [[George Challenger|Professor Challenger]]. In ''The Lost World'', Professor Challenger encounters ''[[Stegosaurus]]'', ''[[Allosaurus]]'', and ''[[Pterodactyl]]''. | |||
