It's not just the scientists that freaked Comedian out; he did actually see the squid. And I don't buy the "time constraints" deal. It takes two minutes to add the squid. One minute on the island, and one minute of it sitting there in the middle of Times Square.
And if that threw you off of your comprehension of the plot, guess what? That's what Moore was going for, dumbass. He was trying to make the reader feel the shock that Laurie and Jon felt when they teleported back.
