Time Flies was the first Garth Ennis story published in 2000 AD after he moved from its short-lived sister title Crisis.

[1] Although admiring of Philip Bond's artwork Ennis has said about Time Flies, "I think if you examine it in detail I think you'll find it was, in fact, crap.

Philip Bond quit the sequel before finishing and was replaced by Jon Beeston, Roger Langridge and Simon Jacob.

The day is saved by Trace Bullet and the World War II bomber pilot Bertie Sharp.

In "Tempus Fugitive" the zombie of Trace's ex-husband Cutty O'Sark attempts to assassinate the Time Investigation Team members who were previously on the Göring mission.
