If they have completely changed Keel Haul's bio, I suppose they've gone that route rather than using a different and suitable pre-existing character as the name is cooler, and possibly because people also remember the name, though that's a double edged sword as you'll offend people (like us) as well as getting people to recognise the name.
I've just had another read of the comic, and it reminded me of the two big problems I saw when I first read it:
What do they think happens if you explode a lump of C4 (or indeed anything explosive) in a (relatively) incompressible fluid with a couple of compressible human bodies nearby. Squashed humans.
Also the comment about hitting the bottom at 300mph is just plain impossible, perhaps it was a typo and they meant 30mph (which is certainly possible). Not sure whether this is supposed to be wrong (i.e. Shipwreck [I think] made a mistake), though it did sound like an authoritative statement on his part so you assume he's supposed to know what he's talking about....
