Cable #11, Wake Me Up When Something Happens [video]

90 Second Review for Cable #11.

I just don't get what's going on.  Or why more isn't.  It seems like big things should be happening.  Who's still reading this?  Does anyone think Bishop is just so out of character?  Why hasn't he been this...angry when he first came on the scene?

His future wife was Hope.  After she was killed, he named (finally) named the girl Hope as well.

I'm a little confused. Is Hope the name of Cable's wife of the baby mutant? Because this panel got me confused.

I actually noticed the disparity in the days he had counted and the age that Hope said when I read it too. I assumed that Cable was counting days he's been on the run from the roach people and not Bishop.

And, I don't think her hair is that bad, but she does look a little older than 7, maybe 12-ish.

Yeah, it's 4.18-ish years that Cable's been doing his narration.  There was a tiny bit of time before he took off in Messiah Complex so I don't know if that count refers strictly to her age or just the time he decided to start counting.

I think it's just the posing, the largeness of her head in relation to her body makes her feel older.. along with the business woman haircut.

She does, she looks too old, too mature to be 7. Very Creepy"
Then again, you have to consider since she was a baby, people have been getting killed around her. That might make you grow up a little faster than you should.

It's funny since on the cover she even has longer hair.  Maybe in the future, your hair stops growing.

Really you liked the art? Olivetti's style is not really my cup of tea he makes Cable look old like Clint Eastwood in Gran Tarino but is was better then the middle of the book IMO"
I like Olivetti's art, just not for the whole comic book. Maybe just the covers.

Yeah, but Cable is old now isn't he? He's been on the run for 7 years, and he wasn't too young when he started out right?

When Cable was "introduced" way back when, that's when X-Men jumped the shark.  I'd been reading and collecting X-Men, New Mutants, X-Factor, etc.  up until then.  At that point, with Cable, I thought "huh?"   I will be honest and say I haven't picked up an X-Men since that time.  The writing was done so poorly, so crappy, that I gave up on X-Men.   Looks like nothing has changed.

I don't think the series is that bad but I do think it can be better. This past issue was pretty bad and the art didn't help it one bit. Hopefully it picks up with the Messiah War coming up

I don't mind the series.  Its supposed to be desolate and dull.  As for Bishop, I think he is reacting like that because he's seen one future timeline (his) and doesn't want it to happen.  Its building to Messiah War.
