    Cable

    Character » Cable appears in 3589 issues.

    The once-mysterious Cable (a.k.a. Nathan Summers) is Cyclops' time-traveling son who was infected with the deadly techno-organic virus during his infancy, which he keeps at bay using his advanced psionic powers. At one time a founding member and leader of the militant team called X-Force, previously known as the New Mutants, Cable takes the aimless youths under his wing and whips them into fighting shape in order to prepare them for future threats.

    Why so much Jeph Loeb hate? Just on Spiderman: Blue, Batman: Hush and Batman: Long Halloween he will always be a good writer to me

    Oh goody. The return of the Marvel personification of Liefeldian 90s excess with all his big guns and pouches of course, no doubt to PWN the Avengers in places where he really has no business doing so at all. Yawn.

    To be fair, Cable's 90's-ness is only eclipsed by Deadpool's. "I'm so cool, I make stupid jokes while I kill people. IM SOOOO EXTREME." But people seem to like that toolbag.

    If cable comes back in anything it should be xforce , since thats the best X title and with the current arc tieing in with his history would of been a far betetr option and a far better book.

    Why can't he just return to the X-universe and have it be dealt with there, why does he have to come back and slaughter everyone?

    Surprise, surprise, like Oh Em Gee.

    Another killed-off character comes back to life, but this time, out to kill another character who may end up coming back to life in a few years.

    Shocking Marvel... shocking.

    Next up... Earth-616 Nightcrawler.

    P.S.

    A Cable Skin for Gears of Wars 3 FTW.

    LOL I thought the exact same thing.

    Well, it is too soon, but I really did grow to love Cable and his relationship with Hope after their journey together, so... I guess I'm biased as I miss Cable as a character in the Marvel U :P

    Avengers are gonna be really busy. They're gonna face annihilators, Ultron and now probably Cable.
    Cable should be absolutely no problem for The Avengers.

    Of course, this is the guy who wrote Rulk (personification of PIS and WIS, yay Loebforce!) headbutting Uato.

    I don't know how I feel about this. This seems liek a regression for a character that has grown past so much in the past few years. Also, it's just not like the character. Cable respects the Avengers. In his time he's actually fought battles with numerous casualties simply to save Cap's shield. He wouldn't just kill them off, or at least not just for his daughter. I know he's a father, but Cable's always made the hard decisions for the greater good. He shot and apparently killed his own son in order to save 1 teammate, I don't think he'd kill Earth's Mightiest Heroes, not even for Hope.

    I honestly thinks its too early as well, but to be honest, i just want to see him in the mix in general, so why not. Bishop was one im glad is gone, cable ill never hate. and Loeb is a great writer if you dont like him for rulk, then you dont understand how that whole character boosted prices dramatically, the man is a writer as well as a mogul when it comes to comics, if he takes it to a strange turn itll be for the best. still i think quesada and ael alonso are single handedly the crappiest editors in cheif ever in the biz

    He does have respect for them, the avengers, but his character is def one who uses force when necessary. If he has to do something he will, period. they always exaggerate covers though, cable is probly going to have a 1 issue fight with the avengers, have a heart to heart with wolverine, dip off, hope finds him because she knows him too well, then DP helps him fight the avengers off or somehow actually talks them out of it. blah blah blah,cyclops takes in the perfect soldier for his mutant army nation, boom welcome to january's event.

    I HATE what they are doing to Cable, and I HATE Ed Mc Guinness with every fiber of my soul he has ruined every book he has ever laid hands on. I rather have someone at Marvel take a dump on a cover and print that instead of what this guy passes off as art. All his work looks like giant, steroid abusing retards. What happen to the quality work of real artists? They all went to DC, that’s what happens. Shape up Marvel, bring back heroes not these clowns.
