O.M.A.C.! It stands for (if you follow the Kirby definition, and
why would you follow any other?)
One Man Army Corps. But in a future without national boundaries, that solo fighting guy with the big-ass mohawk might be known as
different acronyms. For example, in Italy, let's call him UUAB! (Pronounced oo-abb.)
Un Uomo Armato Battaglione! Mmmm, I think I had one of those after my spaghetti and meatballs down at Aunt Suzie's Italian restaurant last week. Oh, let's just continue to call him O.M.A.C. for copyright sake.
Signor O.M.A.C.
