"Emil Burbank[seeing Nuke fight Hyperion]: You know what's interesting about nuclear blasts, Arcanna? It isn't just the radiation, or the initial blast. It's the shockwaves. First, a precursor wave goes out in a perfect sphere of tremendous power, thousands of pounds of pressure per square inch. When its hits the ground, or Nuke's control field, the shock wave bounces back and multiplies the sheer force of the blast hundreds of times. Thus contained, the shockwave continues to bounce back and forth to unimaginable levels. It must be the next best thing to being caught in the heart of a star at the moment of its birth. And that, my dear, is why you are Arcanna...And he is Mr.Gaines. No offense intended."
