As a 90’s kid who grew up with the X-Men animated series and comic books, I can’t help but feel a surge of nostalgia when Cable takes center stage yet again. With his unique blend of badassness, intrigue, and a touch of melancholy, this time-traveling mutant has always held a special place in my heart.
The surge in popularity of Cable persists post the first season of X-Men ’97, further boosted by his role in a fresh solo series. It’s not uncommon for certain X-Men characters to strike a chord with fans, be it through an appealing aesthetic or captivating history. With Cable, it’s a mix of all these elements and more. His leadership of X-Force, his large weapons, Techno-Organic Virus, frequent team-ups with Deadpool – all contribute to his enduring status as a beloved X-Man. This adoration likely led Marvel to feature him prominently in an X-Men spinoff series.
As a hardcore gamer, I’m thrilled to break exclusive news about “Cable: Love and Chrome,” a five-issue limited series penned by David Pepose (known for his work on “Punisher” and “Savage Avengers”) and illustrated by Mike Henderson (renowned for his work on “Daredevil” and “Deadpool vs. Old Man Logan”). In this thrilling adventure, I, Cable, find myself stuck in a time loop, causing me to get entangled in a full-blown civil war. The series also hints at an intriguing investigation into the Techno-Organic Virus that has ravaged parts of my body and sent me into the future as a baby, as portrayed in the first season of “X-Men ’97.
In the spirit of ’90s kids who grew up adoring the X-Men, no other character has embodied action, thrill, and attitude quite like Cable for me. And, as David Pepose expressed in a statement, Mike Henderson and I are aiming to tap into that same dynamic energy with our comic series titled “Cable: Love & Chrome.
For me, Cable is a character who’s always been intriguing and multi-layered – he’s a soldier hailing from the future, constantly fighting against the destructive Techno-Organic Virus in his daily life. For quite some time, this has been a war that he’s fought on his own. But imagine what happens when he encounters someone else with the same terminal condition? Brace yourself for an exhilarating science fiction journey that transcends temporal boundaries – and expect the high-octane action every great Cable tale requires!
Mike Henderson stated, “Cable has been one of my top choices for a while now, so when this concept landed in my email, I had to carve out time to bring it to life. If you picture him being transported to an apocalypse and armed with weapons that would make the 1990s envious, then I’m your man. I’m thrilled for people to witness what we’re working on!
