The name of the hurricane is Gardner, as in Gardner Fox, a long-time writer for Justice League comics. Also, the girl that Wonder Woman saves and calls her sister is named Cassie. Cassie Sandmark became Wonder Girl in DC comics.
The newsstand evacuated by its owner in the opening is labeled Bernie's, a reference to a newsstand owner character from the Watchmen comic books, which DC Comics eventually bought the rights to.
