- As noted in Comic Book Legends, Lady Mastermind originated due to a mix-up between Chris Claremont and Joe Casey who were the writers of X-Treme X-Men and Uncanny X-Men.

- In an interview on Uncanny X-Men.net, writer Mike Carey commented on his use of the character, "So I chose Lady Mastermind partly because she's such a volatile and extreme personality. As with Mystique, you suspect that some aspects of her behavior may have their roots in an actual psychosis. But on the surface you've just got this amazing, wickedly ingenious, endlessly aggressive woman who never lets anyone get away with anything. She's the hardest X-Man for Rogue to wrangle, even taking Mystique into account. Because of course Mystique is trying hard – for whatever reasons – to be supportive of Rogue's position, while Regan doesn't give a damn."
