Comics Official CABLE and DEADPOOL Discussion Thread

[El Bastardo]

I don't even know how to respond to that.

Okay, we need Outcry for this. Outcry! Come hither!

 

[SouLeSS]

Not a fan of the art. Everyone looks just so big.

Same here. They make it seem like everything is so epic and every little detail is a huge deal.

CABLE #4
Written by DUANE SWIERCZYNSKI
Pencils & Cover by ARIEL OLIVETTI
Variant Cover by MARKO DJURDJEVIC
The second phase of the war that began in "Messiah Complex" continues! There’s nothing better than catching up with an old war buddy, especially after the years have really started to pile up. You can rummage through the bad old days, revel in the glory days, and down quite a few beers on the back porch while the sun slips down over the horizon. But not so for Cable. Because his old war buddy has shown up with news that everyone he knows or cares about is dead. The battles are over, and they’re the only ones left on the losing side. If that weren’t enough, Bishop, their former ally, is just one bullet away from achieving his objective: killing the baby, and erasing the last shred of hope for mutantkind. All of the battles Cable has won mean nothing. Because suddenly, all of these years later, he’s in real danger of losing the war.

Bishop's arm is soooo stupid!

 

[OutcryX]

Storm would LOVE Bishops new tentacles...and Bishop did look kinda European in some of those panels..but its the colorist's fault becuz in some he looked all kinds of black and badassed

 

[El Bastardo]

Bishop's arm is kinda neat, actually. And that blurb about the issue sounds really awesome, too. Do we know who it is yet, or are we taking orders?

 

[Havok83]

What is up with Bishop's eyes? He doesnt even look human there. More like a sentinel. Maybe this Bishop is a Prime Sentinel

 

[OutcryX]

they are really trying to sell him as evil

 

[El Bastardo]

It's effect.

 

[OutcryX]

i was just looking at his mouth on that cover...I dont know ANY motuh to ever take that shape...and where are his lips...i am b_tching because i am bored

I'd be more willing to accept the arm if Bishop used his actual mutant power more often. This arm will just be more of a reason for him to forget he can absorb/redirect energy

 

[OutcryX]

oh yeah.. Bishop does have powers doesnt he?

 

[Havok83]

yeah he wasnt depowered

 

[Colossal Spoons]

You'd never know it, the way he neglects his powers

 

[Havok83]

You'd never know it, the way he neglects his powers

maybe thats bc he's a sentinel

 

[chris moore]

The often say his guns are used to channel his absorbed energy - which on the one hand is just a way to excuse him always firing futuristic blasters. And on the other is begs the question "didnt you pay attention to the control of mutant powers motif while you lived at the mansion? Shouldnt a man of your age and training have figured out how to control the nature of the re-direction of your absorbed energy by now?"

 

[El Bastardo]

He knows how to, just fine. He's always used bio-blasts.

It's just cooler for him to run around with guns, so he does.

 

[OutcryX]

i need for him to go and visit orihime from Bleach. so she may re grow his arm. All this with him and Cable wearing matching bodies is way too sensual and romantic for me.

 

[Jick]

sorry the bump...but I finished reading C&D.
can anyone tell me how Cable survived the explosion in Providence?

 

[cerealkiller182]

i dont think they have said yet

 

[El Bastardo]

I think it might have been mentioned subtly in an interview. The idea was that Providence still had just enough power left for a last teleportation. I think.

But it hasn't been outright stated in any issue, and I doubt it will be.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

Maybe they'll cover it later in Cable's book.

A new ongoing series spinning out of the decade’s biggest X-Men event! The future of mutantkind continues here!
There’s only one thing worse than a heavily-armed man with murder on the brain. And that’s several heavily-armed men, none of whom give a damn about Cable’s mission to save mutantkind from total extinction. Meanwhile, Cable’s newest enemy—Lucas Bishop—crawls back from bloody oblivion and tracks down his quarry the hard way: one brutal time jump after another. When Bishop finally catches up with Cable, he’s not going to be in the mood for small talk. It’ll be kill first, ask questions later.

Freakin' sweet. Cable's getting some mileage out of that knife.
