Other Surfman comics from this compilation, which were thrown out at some point (making them permanently lost media), spawned an semi-antagonist, anti-hero character: The alter-ego of Surfman's sidekick "Beachboy", when infected by a gooey parasite in the form of a long-eared alien cat mask, whose later designs became the rabbit character [[Neon Mascot]], as the art style evolved over the years, inadvertently making the ears longer. Additional post-''Darien Daily'' Surfman comics and spinoffs spanning the years 2004–2012 were rediscovered in November 2023 during a house move.

Efforts to recreate ''Surfman in the "NO" Race'', in the same or similar art style for legacy reasons, have occurred multiple times in the years since. First, the comic was recreated in Microsoft PowerPoint, with each panel now a slide in a slideshow.

Another effort to recreate the comic as an animation began production in 2017, and is set to release as another anniversary edition, currently labelled the "20th Anniversary" edition, but this is set to change with its actual release.
