The Underground

Cable, alerted by Domino to the "Neverland" concentration camp run by Malcolm Colcord’s Weapon X organization, then recruited Blaquesmith, Meltdown, and a new Maverick to lead an underground, who proceeded to capture the Weapon X agents and former Mutant Liberation Front members Wildside and Reaper. Malcolm Colcord, also known as The Director, is a Fictional character in the Marvel Comics Universe.

However, an alternative subsequently presented itself in the form of Agent Brent Jackson of Weapon X, who arrived at their base with several other Weapon X agents, offering the Underground a truce and requesting their help in deposing Colcord. Brent Jackson is a Fictional Marvel Comics character He first appeared in Wolverine #163 and was created by Frank Tieri and Cable accepted suspiciously.

On their raid, they were surprised by his former friend Garrison Kane, now a cyborg agent of the Program. Furious at the intervention, Cable shut down Kane’s mind, ran into the office of the unconscious Colcord, and probed his mind. When he discovered the truth of the mutant genocide, Cable tried to kill the Director, before being stopped by the brainwashed Madison Jeffries. Madison Jeffries is a Fictional character and a mutant created by Marvel Comics for their Canadian Superhero team Alpha Jeffries tried to destroy the underground with the help of “Boxbots” but was stopped with the help of Kane, who, released from Weapon X’s mind control when Cable rebooted his systems, used his cyborg parts to "download" Jeffries’ power and absorb the Boxbots, killing himself in the process. See Madison Jeffries for more information on his incarnation of Box Box ( Roger Bochs) is a Superhero from Canada

Jackson then betrayed the Underground, captured them, and mind-wiped them into forgetting Weapon X. Marrow, arriving to rescue the Underground, instead used the wider Underground as the basis for a new Gene Nation. Marrow ( Sarah) is a Marvel Comics character, associated with the X-Men. Gene Nation is a Marvel Comics mutant terrorist organization and enemies of the X-Men.

Savior

Cable then achieved the peak of his powers. Knowing this could not last long before he burned out as X-Man almost always did at those power levels, he arranged for what he thought would be the best thing he could do in his last days. X-Man ( Nathaniel "Nate" Grey) is a Fictional character, a Superhero in the and related to the X-Men franchise He recreated his long-destroyed spaceship Greymalkin as the airborne city of Providence. Providence is a fictional island featured in Comic books published by Marvel Comics. Providence is a fictional island featured in Comic books published by Marvel Comics. Although a mishap meant that the teleportation matrix on board registered Deadpool as him, meaning that he could not use it without taking Deadpool with him and Deadpool could trigger a "Bodyslide", he continued with his plan to espouse a philosophy of moderation and offering invitations to the world’s top thinkers, scientists and philosophers to live on Providence. Teleportation is the movement of objects from one place to another more or less instantaneously either by Paranormal means or through technological artifice Delivering a stark message to the world’s leaders, he deliberately set them all against him by threatening to throw all their missiles into the sun.

Meanwhile, the X-Men, including his father Cyclops, hired Deadpool to put together the pieces of a mini-teleporter that they could use to stop him without quite knowing what it was. The X-Men is a team of fictional Superhero characters in Comic books published by Marvel Comics. Cyclops ( Scott Summers) is a Fictional character, a Superhero that is the field leader of the X-Men in the. After they mounted an attack on Providence, Cable confessed to Deadpool after Deadpool had declined to play his role and disable him, that he’d wanted him to kill him. Expanding on this to Cyclops that he knew he was about to burn out, he wanted to set an example of how the world could work together, even if it was against him. However, the Silver Surfer, called by the Fantastic Four, saw his "passion" and disturbed by it, defeated him in battle and ripped the techno-organic tissue from his body, disabling him. } The Silver Surfer is a Marvel Comics Superhero created by Jack Kirby. The Fantastic Four is a fictional Superhero team appearing in Comic books published by Marvel Comics. As Providence, which had been supported by Cable's telekinesis, was crashing towards the ocean, Deadpool teleported to one of Cable's safehouses with him and at his prompting used the teleporter to lobotomize him to save him from burning out, giving him a few seconds to lower Providence gently into the ocean and give a final message to the world. A lobotomy ( Greek: lobos Lobe of Brain, tomos "cut/slice" is a form of Psychosurgery, also known as a leukotomy or While he was left in a coma and with many people around the globe now referring to him as “the Savior” and applications to immigrate to Providence going through the roof, Deadpool hired the Fixer to bond benign techno-organic mesh to Cable, saving him although he remains hugely depowered. The Fixer is a name used by two Fictional characters, both of are which are Villains in the Marvel Comics universe.

Second Childhood

Shortly thereafter, Cable vanished in killing a mutant-hunting beast called the Skornn at the head of a reformed X-Force. The Skornn is a Fictional character created by writer Fabian Nicieza for Marvel Comics. Cannonball and Siryn then traveled to Providence, with Forge in tow, to try and find any trace of him, and whether he survived. Cannonball ( Samuel Zachary Guthrie) is a fictional Marvel Comics Superhero, associated with the X-Men. Siryn ( Theresa Rourke Cassidy) is a Marvel Comics superheroine, associated with the X-Men. Forge is a Fictional character in the, a Superhero associated with The X-Men. At roughly the same time, Deadpool, having been brainwashed by a supervillain information broker called the Black Box to kill the "Greatest Threat to Mankind", teleported to Providence to find and kill Cable, who he perceived as the greatest superhuman threat. An information broker is a person or business that researches information for clients Black Box ( Garabed Bashur) formerly known as Commcast, is a Fictional character in the Marvel Comics universe. After Cannonball and Siryn had calmed him, he suggested they use his teleportation-link with Cable to find him and Forge constructed a harness to allow the two X-Force members to follow him.

They then proceeded to travel through three alternate worlds, one where Cable had become War; a Horseman of Apocalypse, one where Cable had succeeded in his messiah-like mission and had become a benevolent dictator (where even mild indigestion was immediately dealt with through outside help), and one where Cable had become the central consciousness of a Phalanx infestation of Earth. The Horsemen of Apocalypse is a team of Fictional Supervillain characters that appear in Comic books published by Marvel Comics. This article is about the concept of a Messiah in religion notably in the Christian Islamic and Jewish traditions The Phalanx are a Cybernetic fictional species in the Marvel Comics universe. Finally, they landed in the House of M reality and found an infant Cable being raised by the marginalized Mister Sinister on a farm. House of M is an eight-issue Comic book Limited series and crossover storyline published by Marvel Comics in 2005. Mister Sinister is a Fictional character that appears in Comic books published by Marvel Comics. Sinister used an extract from Deadpool's immune system to accelerate Cable’s physical development; however, this also caused Cable’s powers to almost immediately manifest, and the infant Cable lashed out indiscriminately with his newfound telekinesis. Before Sinister could regain control over Cable, Deadpool grabbed the baby and teleported seconds before the world reverted from the House of M reality to the normal Marvel Universe. House of M is an eight-issue Comic book Limited series and crossover storyline published by Marvel Comics in 2005. Since the pair were in transit when the reversion occurred, Cable was unaffected and thus was still a child as Deadpool returned with him to Providence.

There, when Forge ran tests and discerned that the child was, in fact, the real Cable, Deadpool's brainwashing kicked in once more and he attempted to kill Cable. Siryn and Cannonball delayed him until Deadpool shot himself in the head. As Cable rapidly aged back into mid-childhood, he read Deadpool's mind and found who had brainwashed him. As X-Force went to confront the Black Box, Cable decided that he wanted to have his memory restored and cure Deadpool's brain damage, even though it would once more cost him his powers. He succeeded, although X-Force found only a LMD Black Box at his base and he soon returned to his original age, whereupon his accelerated aging stopped. In publications from Marvel Comics, a Life Model Decoy (frequently known by the abbreviation LMD) is fictional Android designed to function as an exact

It is revealed that, during a battle thousands of years ago, a younger time-traveling Cable (then known as “The Traveler”) was accidentally responsible for infecting En Sabah Nur with the techno-organic virus with which Apocalypse would one day infect Nathan Summers. ^[16]

Cable also revealed that he was the one responsible for Apocalypse's post-House of M revival, stating that the Mutant community needed a powerful threat to rally against. House of M is an eight-issue Comic book Limited series and crossover storyline published by Marvel Comics in 2005. Believing that the X-Men would inevitably defeat Apocalypse yet again bringing the remaining mutant community together, Cable judged "the risk's worth the rewards. "

Civil War

Cable chose Captain America's anti-Registration side during the Civil War event, in which certain heroes battle against the Registration Act and operate from SHIELD safe-house number 23. In Marvel Comics ' fictional Marvel Universe, the Registration Acts —the Mutant Registration Act (or MRA) and Superhuman Registration Act It was he who discovers that they had walked into a trap and he tells Deadpool that Thor killed one of the Secret Avengers. Thor is a Fictional character that appears in Comic books published by Marvel Comics.

It appeared he left the Secret Avengers after the death of Goliath. Dr Bill Foster, known variously as Black Goliath, the second Giant-Man, and the fourth Goliath, is a Fictional character ^[17] Despite this, he maintained his views on the Civil War, and put considerable effort into discrediting Deadpool's association with the pro-Registration heroes in an attempt to bring Deadpool over to his side. The attempt half-succeeded; Deadpool was disgraced, but instead of joining Cable, he ended their friendship in fury. Cable continues to keep an eye on Deadpool after this, trying to help him become a better person, but Deadpool often rejects Cable's help when he sees him.

It is presumed that Cable was aware of the death of Captain America and this may be the reason that he exits from the Civil War. He has been wearing a Captain America shield or emblem on his right shoulder^[18]. This is similar to his first stint as an X-Man, when Cyclops died; Cable, at that time, wore Cyclops’ visor around his neck. Cable’s pleading with Captain America before Civil War could be interpreted as him futilely trying to prevent an "inevitable future".

X-Men again

Cable becomes a member of a team of X-Men that consists of Rogue, Iceman, Cannonball, Sabretooth, Mystique, Lady Mastermind, and Omega Sentinel. The X-Men is a team of fictional Superhero characters in Comic books published by Marvel Comics. Rogue ( Anna Marie) is a Fictional character, part of the Marvel Comics mutant super-team the X-Men.

The Shi'ar, pronounced /ʃiː'ɑːɹ/ ("Shee-ARR" are a fictional species of aliens in the Marvel Comics universe. Cable lets the Mummudrai that had been occupying Lady Mastermind and then Mystique into him in order to reawaken his telepathy and telekinesis. This however is still not enough to defeat Hecatomb so in a final desperate attempt awakens Rogue from her coma to defeat the creature. With her powers changed through the Strain 88 virus, Rogue defeats the mind of the creature leaving the explosive core to be destroyed by Cannonball and Omega Sentinel. With the Hecatomb defeated, Rogue in the process of recovering from the ordeal, Sabretooth missing, and the team's flying base the Conquistador destroyed in the battle, the X-Men depart from the island.

Blinded by the Light

Cable stays on Providence as it sinks into the ocean and learns that there are others on the island as well who are after the knowledge of the future stored in the island's computers.

Cable speaks a codeword into his computer and successfully detonates the island's power source, destroying the island and supposedly killing himself in the process.

Messiah Complex

It is revealed that Cable survived, and has the mutant baby girl that the X-Men, Marauders, and Purifiers have been seeking^[19]. The Marauders are a Fictional group of Supervillains that appear in Comic books published by Marvel Comics. The Purifiers, also known as the Stryker Crusade, are a fictional paramilitary/ terrorist organization in the Marvel Comics universe and enemies Recent events have seen Cable heading to Forge's Aerie with the mutant child, seeking his help in repairing his time-travel equipment. The X-Men, Cyclops in particular, wrongly assume Cable was responsible of a recent assault on the Xavier Institute by Cassandra Nova's Nano-Sentinels. In the fictional Marvel Comics universe, the X-Mansion, the common name for the Xavier Mansion, is the base of operations and training site of the Cassandra Nova is a Fictional enemy of the X-Men in the Marvel Comics universe. As Cable arrives at Eagle Plaza, he finds Forge wounded by gunfire and unconscious and is shot from behind by Bishop, who wants to kill the mutant baby to repair his timeline.

The Marauders then arrive at the Aerie, defeat Bishop and take the child into their possession. Cable, realizing he cannot save the baby alone, contacts Professor X for help. Charles Francis Xavier, also known as Professor X, is a Fictional character, a Marvel Comics Superhero known as the leader and founder of He reveals to the Professor that the baby, who will eventually be known as the Mutant Messiah in some circles is responsible for saving both humanity and mutantkind from some unspecified threat and that this event will change everything.

Predator X is a Fictional character, in the Marvel Universe and a deadly enemy of mutants including the X-Men. Cyclops decides that the child is safer with Cable, and gives her to him. As he teleports into the future to protect the child, Bishop tries to shoot him, but misses and hits Xavier, seriously injuring him.

Back to the Future

After the events of Messiah Complex, Cable once again received his own series. Reminiscent of Lone Wolf and Cub, the series follows Cable, and the messianic child's time traveling adventures. is a well-known Gekiga or Manga created by the writer Kazuo Koike and the artist Goseki Kojima. The dangers of the future and pursuit by Bishop are balanced with the humor of "Cable the soldier" becoming "Cable the Nanny. "

Powers and abilities

Cable is a mutant who possesses incredibly powerful telepathic and telekinetic abilities. A mutant is an individual organism or new genetic character arising or resulting from an instance of Mutation, which is a base-pair sequence change within the DNA Telepathy ( Greek τηλε tele meaning "distant" and πάθεια patheia meaning "to be affected by" describes the purported transfer The term psychokinesis (from the Greek ψυχή, "psyche" meaning mind soul heart or breath; and κίνησις, "kinesis" These abilities have been limited by his need to restrain his techno-organic infection. In the Marvel Comics universe and Transformers Beast Machines, techno-organic material is a material with properties and abilities of both organic As his powers grew, he was able to use his powers to perform greater and greater feats, without fear of losing control over his T-O virus. His telepathy increased to where he could read minds, broadcast his thoughts to either communicate with others or control minds, and fire mind-shattering psychic blasts. Without the effects of the virus, his telepathic and telekinetic powers are comparable in strength to those of X-Man, but enhanced by Cable's greater levels of experience, intelligence, and his Askani training. X-Man ( Nathaniel "Nate" Grey) is a Fictional character, a Superhero in the and related to the X-Men franchise The Askani are Fictional characters a fictional organization in the Marvel Universe in the future/alternate timeline designated as Earth-4935 also known as Earth

His telekinesis increased even further to where he could lift heavy objects with his mind, fire psionic blasts of destructive force, and create protective force shields that could deflect even the most powerful of attacks (even filter bacteria from the air). The Bacteria ( singular: bacterium) are a large group of unicellular Microorganisms Typically a few Micrometres in length bacteria have He was even able to battle the cosmic alien, Silver Surfer, and went so far as to shatter his opponent’s surfboard, all the while holding a space station aloft, linking his mind to the Surfer, as well as being telepathically linked to the entire world populace. } The Silver Surfer is a Marvel Comics Superhero created by Jack Kirby. A space station is an artificial structure designed for Humans to live in Outer space. By telekinetically levitating himself, Cable could fly short distances. Cable could telekinetically rearrange the molecular structure of matter, such as his clothes. After his lobotomy and replacement of the T-O-infected tissue with benign techno-organic tissue, Cable possessed very limited telepathy and telekinesis. However, as seen in the "Condition Critical" storyline in X-Men (vol. 2), after agreeing to serve as a host for the Mummudrai, Ev Teel Urizen, Cable's telepathic and telekinetic abilities were restored stronger than before, as evidenced when he used his telekinesis to levitate the entire island of Providence in mid-air in Cable & Deadpool #40. The Mummudrai are fictional life forms appearing in Marvel Comics. However, with the death of Urizen in X-Men #199, Cable's telepathy is once again inactive. His telekinesis remains, though at what level has yet to be revealed.

Much like X-Man, Cable has demonstrated limited precognition. X-Man ( Nathaniel "Nate" Grey) is a Fictional character, a Superhero in the and related to the X-Men franchise He also had the potential for astral time-travel, much as Rachel Summers had. Rachel Summers (who now calls herself Rachel Grey and Marvel Girl) is a fictional character a Marvel Comics Superheroine created by writer However, he has only used this once and then under great strain and with help. Whether or not he retains this after recent experiences is unknown.

Due to the events of the "Bosom Buddies" storyline, Cable now has a technological link to the "Infonet", which acts as a surrogate for his telepathy—instead of reading minds, he is now a cyberpath, able to "read" digital information and broadcasts. In generalDO NOT ADD INFORMATION THAT DOES NOT CONCERN COMIC BOOK CHARACTERS In the next story arc, "Living Legends", he altered a prototype force field known as "The Cone of Silence" to simulate his depleted telekinesis. He also displayed the ability to forcefully link other minds to the Infonet (as he demonstrated against Captain America). In effect, he has enhanced his limited psionic powers via technological means.

His left eye glows, for some reason related to his mutant powers. It is evidently unrelated to his original telekinetic and telepathic powers, as the eye still glows with his new cyberpath powers. Nate Grey (X-Man) shares this feature. X-Man ( Nathaniel "Nate" Grey) is a Fictional character, a Superhero in the and related to the X-Men franchise Similarly Rachel Summers frequently manifests a phoenix emblem over her left eye when using her powers and Gabriel Summers, aka Vulcan, Cable's uncle, manifests an aura from his artificial eye when engaging his abilities

Cable also had several superhuman powers as the result of his techno-organic infection. His techno-organic body parts possessed minor superhuman strength and durability. He could change their appearance with some effort from metal to synthetic flesh, though he preferred the metal appearance. His techno-organic eye gave him enhanced eyesight, allowing him to see further than a normal human and in the infrared spectrum. Infrared ( IR) radiation is Electromagnetic radiation whose Wavelength is longer than that of Visible light, but shorter than that of He could interface his techno-organic body parts with machinery, using them to hack into computers and open electronic locks. An electronic lock (more precisely an electric lock is a locking device which operates by means of electric current

Due to another viral infection, Cable was infused with some of Deadpool's DNA. He has at times shown a regenerative ability, such as when recovering from a botched "bodyslide" teleport.

Cable is trained in the use of many futuristic and conventional firearms, unarmed combat, and guerrilla tactics. A firearm is a Tool that projects either single or multiple Projectiles at high velocity through a controlled explosion Guerrilla warfare is the unconventional warfare and combat with which a small group of combatants use mobile tactics (ambushes raids etc He has extensive training in military combat techniques and the martial arts, and is an extraordinary combat strategist. When his powers were temporarily reduced, he used a weapon from his own timeline, known as a “Psimitar. ” The Psimitar, which resembles a spear or a staff (depending on the artist) has the ability to focus and increase his telepathic and telekinetic powers.

Other versions

Age of Apocalypse

Cable's character does not directly exist in the Age of Apocalypse timeline. The "Age of Apocalypse" is a popular X-Men Story arc.

X-Man ( Nathaniel "Nate" Grey) is a Fictional character, a Superhero in the and related to the X-Men franchise X-Man has the same genetic heritage and powers as Cable but is an adolescent in this timeline instead of an older man. Nate Grey was artificially advanced to adolescence and never spent the time in the future that Cable did, hence the age discrepency.

Brother Nathan

In another alternate reality, Cable, now calling himself Brother Nathan, rules a peaceful utopia in which even the simplest of issues is dealt with by extreme action.

Darker Image

Cable had a brief appearance (non-canon) in the Bloodwulf line of Darker Image comics. He appeared to portray the security chief for Praxon 9, a moon. The moon was destroyed and this Cable was presumably killed.

He was able to survive the psychic onslaught that killed Professor X and the other telepaths because he was under Sentinel City (the city built by Magneto out of Sentinels). Magneto (alias Erik Magnus Lehnsherr, born Max Eisenhardt) is a Fictional character that appears in Comic books published by Marvel The Sentinels are Fictional characters Robots in the. Most often encountering the team of mutants known as the X-Men, they were created by writer Cable is found by Iron Maiden and helps her use her powers to restore the polarity of the Earth.

Phalanx Cable

In yet another alternate reality, Cable becomes the central consciousness for the technorganic Phalanx, which controls the entire Earth. The Phalanx are a Cybernetic fictional species in the Marvel Comics universe.

Ultimate Cable

In the Ultimate Marvel universe, when Cable first appears ^[20] he neutralizes Jean Grey and Professor X’s psychic powers, deflects Cyclops’ beams, and shows other knowledge of the X-Men’s weaknesses. Ultimate Marvel is an Imprint of Comic books published by Marvel Comics, featuring reimagined and updated versions of the company's most popular Superhero Jean Grey-Summers ( née Jean Grey is a Fictional Comic book superheroine appearing in books published by Marvel Comics. Charles Francis Xavier, also known as Professor X, is a Fictional character, a Marvel Comics Superhero known as the leader and founder of Cyclops ( Scott Summers) is a Fictional character, a Superhero that is the field leader of the X-Men in the. It is revealed that Cable is in fact Wolverine from the future, and that his goal is to “kill Charlie” to save the future from horrible consequences caused by Xavier^[21]. As a Fictional character, Marvel Comics 's Wolverine has appeared in a number of media, from Comic books to Films and Television

While battling Cyclops, he seemingly succeeds in killing Charles Xavier^[22], throwing a Grenade-like device at the Professor. He and the Six Pack then apparently escaped, their mission completed, leaving behind Xavier’s charred skeleton. But in issue #80 it is revealed that he took Charles Xavier to the future with him as a captive; some time later he releases Xavier and, having repaired the latter's spine, prepares to train him.

Unlike his 616 counterpart, Ultimate Cable’s scars are not in the shape of a star around his eye, but three claw slashes to the left; when Logan cites it as proof that Cable isn’t him from the future, Cable replies that when “they” took his arm, they used it before throwing it away. Additionally, Ultimate Cable's right eye glows, unlike the left eye of his 616 counterpart, though the reason for this has not been revealed. Cable’s former friend, Bishop, has claimed that Cable started out upholding Xavier’s beliefs, only to fall deeper and deeper into the mentality of a psychotic, eventually linking a string of unrelated events to Charles Xavier himself. Bishop ( Lucas Bishop) is a Fictional character, a Marvel Comics Superhero who is a member of the X-Men. However, issue #87 reveals that Bishop and Cable are actually allied with each other and that Bishop and Cable are trying to prevent Apocalypse's chaotic reign.

Due to his lack of a healing ability, Cable equips himself with numerous gadgets, including a heat ray gun that causes mild burns and an electronic stunner. He also states that he cannot beat the younger Wolverine in a fair fight due to his age and lack of healing factor.
