The premise at Cosmic Muffin is pretty simple...if a little bit weird.
You see, Ambush Bug saved the universe. Yep. It's pretty simple, really.
Remember all that Crisis stuff in the mid-80s? Wasn't very good to Ambush Bug. He didn't like it at all. Took a lot of the fun out of being a comic book character and replaced it with unending angst, melodrama, and what's worse...
really, really bad writing.
At least, for the most part. But then it got worse. Then Zero Hour came and was the last insult to the old-time fans. That was it; he couldn't take it anymore! No more "reboot" Legion, no more endlessly mixed-up characters in the wrong roles...
NO!!
Luckily he had stowed the best parts of the DC Universe in a pocket in his suit when that whole Crisis affair was going on. Then he got a little more between Crisis and the Zero Hour thing. When he looked again, just like coat hangers, the bits had formed their own little universe.
Even more luckily, he let 'em go... and a new universe formed. Hopefully, he thought, it would be more successful than Marvel's attempts at a New Universe also in the mid-80s. Or really, whatever works for you. That's the explanation we're giving. If you don't like it...well, humans are one of the best groups of people that can think up loosely convincing things to explain away strangeness.
