AWhile 'God' literally closes the book on The Askewniverse at the end of the movie, if you look closely, you'll notice that the final page she has bookmarked is roughly 3/4 of the way through the book, as opposed to the end of the book where one would normally find "THE END".Director Kevin Smith has stated that this subtlety was purposely included as an out in the event they should ever want to revisit the Askewniverse again.Indeed, they would do so once more in Clerks II. A hidden easter egg on the DVD release of that movie reveals the director discussing the Askewniverse prop book used in Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back, and also shows Smith moving the bookmark about 9/10th of the way to the end.Take that as you will.
