    I think he should, he's cool enough and he doesn't get the spotlight enough.

    maybe...I don't know...he just had that terrible mini and who's to say whether that was due to the writing or the character....some characters just can't function on their own outside of a team

    Cage works better as the voice of reason/everyman on a team of superheroes than he does as a solo operative. He's become sort of a Green Arrow type character who cares more about actually improving conditions for people than about wearing his underwear on the outside and punching space aliens in the face. He helps bring a bit of realism to a team book. However, his powers are simply too generic and uninteresting to justify a solo book. His history is also a bit cliche' (secret prison experiments are so 1970s). In addition, the Heroes For Hire had a terrible cast of villains. Not a single interesting one in the bunch. I love the character, but I only love him when he's got a bunch of goofy superheroes around him for contrast.
