From an unstoppable cyborg to a middle-aged man living in the suburbs of future burbank, Nixon's origin sure is confusing, nonetheless entertaining as hell, some people say he's a cyborg, and according to people who worked in Dark Horse at that time, that seems to be the correct answer, Nixon's a cyborg, yet he has delusions of being a regular guy. He battles against fearsome opponents although he manages to win every single time, he does so his way, I.E. lots of blood and guts everywhere, always packing a pair of his "i-don't-know-how-much" high caliber guns. Nixon, an honest tax collector roams the streets in his T-Bird. He also seems to have a strange pattern of speech, often talking about being an insurance investigator and a guy named Seltz that has a beautiful wife and two kids, he has a slight tendency for redundancy, he always repeats the same even while fighting. Is he damaged? Is he crazy? One can only guess.
