Origin
Cliff V. Mewett, or Airwave, became the G.I. Joe Sky Patrol communications specialist and has the ability to find a frequency where others cannot.
Creation
First introduced as an action figure in 1990, Airwave did not see comic exposure until 2007 when Mark Powers wrote him into an issue. Oddly enough, another Cliff V. Mewett would be introduced in 1993 in the likes of Colonel Courage. He would also be used at a premium in the comics.
