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.

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).

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).

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.
