Trivia
- She appears to be a parody of Barbie, DC superheroine Fire, and barbecue.
- According to Jackson Publick, Barbie-Q is "kind of a Vision/original Human Torch kind of thing. Because she has doll parts--she's not a real person--and she's on fire."[1]
- SPECULATION: As they both seem to have Australian accents and pyrokinetic powers, Barbie-Q may have some relation to the supervillain Torrid.
