Page 9 returns us to MAJOR TORRES
Panel 1
MAJOR GUADALUPE TORRES at her console
Panel 2
TORRES is speaking to DR. JACK DAVIS, creator of THE SPLITTER.
Panel 3
Explaining in more detail the disaster mentioned in the last page, it appears a number of world leaders agreed to bury nuclear devices in their countries that would self-activate if they started a war (this must be part of the Pax Americana doctrine).
Now we know why all of the capital cities were in ruins at the start of issue #1.
Panel 4
It's possible to draw parallels between the scenario outlined here, and any number of world events, both recent and as far back as the Suez Crisis in 1956, and before.TORRES is really suggesting that this was a false flag event, which are events that are designed to appear as though they are being carried out by one group, and were actually planned and executed by another.
Panel 5
"BLACK GLASS" - When nuclear devices are ignited in desert areas, the power of the blast will fuse the sand into glass. Sometimes called "Trinitite" or "Alamogordo glass", named after the sites of early nuclear tests in New Mexico.

Archangel #4, Page 8
Page 8 tells us where it all went wrong
Panel 1
"Recuerda" is Spanish for "remember".
"GLOBAL FAILSAFE SYSTEM" - we learn more about this on the next page.
Panel 2
"JUNIOR AND HIS FATHER ARE THE LEADERS YOU GET WITH IT" - Maybe they had something to do with it?
Panel 3
"NEW B-29S" - Boeing developed the B-29 during the second World War, and the first flight of a B-29 was 21st September 1942. Two "famous" B-29s during that war were the Enola Gay (which dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima) and the Bockscar (which dropped an atomic bomb on Nagasaki).

More of the HENDERSON's plan becomes clear.

MAJOR TORRES is hearing everything through the Robotic Flies.
Archangel #4, Page 7
Page 7 sees NAOMI changes THE PILOT's dressings
Panel 1
Again NAOMI has such a good understanding of time travel and can see things from THE PILOT's point of view.
Panel 2
The military tattoo barcodes onto its personal in THE PILOT's future.
The tracking and bomb activation device that JUNIOR is called a "Memex". The Memex machine was a hypothetical machine proposed by Vannevar Bush (scientific advisor to the U.S. President during WW II) in 1945, which was a desk with two screens and two input devices that would allow people to access text, audio and film-based materials, and create links between different content. The Memex machine concept strongly influenced a number of computer pioneers, including J.C.R. Licklider (who did important work on Human-Computer interfaces), Douglas Engelbart (who developed the computer mouse, computer graphics, video conferencing, and word processing), and Ted Nelson (who pioneered hypertext and hyperlinks).
Panel 3
A Memex is a "MEMORY STORAGE UNIT" here.
Panel 4
The radio-controlled bombs have a 50 feet range, just as well.
Panel 5
"I'VE SEEN" - The other pilot's bomb goes off in Issue #1

Page 6 exposes FRITZ's secret chop shop
Panel 1
FRITZ is running a secret chop shop. A "chop shop" is a business that disassembles stolen vehicles for the purpose of selling them either as parts, or assembling a new vehicle from parts of different vehicles.
Panel 2
FRITZ is selling to the U.S. Army
Panel 3
More and more FRITZ is turning out to be the hero of this story, his illegal activities are raising money for an orphanage (admittedly by employing orphans as child labour, but no one's perfect!).

Panel 1
Radio reports confirm THE PILOT's story of Hiroshima.
Panel 2
Now that he has removed the copper wire, THE PILOT can contact TORRES
Panel 3
The robotic flies remove THE PILOT's cuffs (again)
Panel 4
THE PILOT further confirms his story to VINCE by activating his CREEPSUIT.
Panel 5
"FROM THE RESISTANCE" - love it!
Panel 6
"THEY'RE HERE FOR A REDO" - The HENDERSONS have ruined the future so they are trying to reset things.

Archangel #4, Page 3
Page 3 explains JUNIOR's plan
Panel 1
In THE PILOT's version of the future, the second atomic bomb, dropped from the Bockscar, was dropped on Archangel, Russia instead of Nagasaki.
JUNIOR changes the bombing location, and that results in the Nu Earth that JUNIOR is from, so this is a bit of a temporal causality loop.
Panel 2
NAOMI asks the important question "WHY ARCHANGEL?"
Panels 3-4
So instead of the MAD doctrine (Mutually Assured Destruction), we get Pax Americana.
Pax Americana is a real-world term used to describe the relative peace in the Western Hemisphere as a result of the preponderance of power enjoyed by the United States since the middle of the 20th century.
