- Something that nobody seems to have picked up on but which I thought was
- pretty strongly hinted at both on the trading cards and during Stryfe's
- confrontation with Apocalypse was that Nathan-as-Stryfe seems to have
- been sent forward in time into Apocalypse's arms. This would explain
- Stryfe's comments to and hatred for Apocalypse, and also the fact that
- Cable (Nathan/Stryfe from another era or timeline?) possesses Apocalypse's
- technology.

- Well, it makes sense to me, anyway...
