It's Nextwave, it doesn't make sense.

You could expand that into some sort of universal truth. "They're comic books; they don't have to make sense."

Not with both eyes, anyway. (ba-dum pssh)

Gatac: The second I finished posting about Nick Fury, I realized you would reply with a Dirk Anger reference. The only question was when.
I suppose a Nick Danger reference would be out of line, then?

Yes, but Nextwave is designed to make no sense, rather than the naive stupidity of, say, the Legion of Superheroes.

It's like saying "Well, a Ferrari is just a car". No, it's not. Nextwave is the king of nonsense in comics.
