All the time I hear people give credit to Cable cuz he's got a nasty powerset...but they usually say he drags down the Cable/DP series with his dialogue.

Does he in your opinion....?

Well.

I think he's just sort of a boring guy. Which is a funny clash to Deadpool.

I mean sheesh. He's the kin of Scott Summers and Jean Grey, the guy's not going to have alot of charisma.

Well now I haven't really read much of the comics with Cable, however the reason as to why I read Cable and Deadpool is because of Deadpool, I couldn't care less about Cable.

Does he in your opinion....? Well let's put it this way... if he didn't have good powers I don't think many people would really care about him... and even with his powers I still don't really care about him...

I liked him before people found out he was uber.

You know...back when he was the badass old guy that went around with big guns and a chip on his shoulder. That's my Cable.

and yes i know what you mean, like 90's cable, when people didnt even really know he had powers...

Though i haven't bee keeping up with Cable & Deadpool, Fabian's been doing some good stuff with Cable there. And i'm enjoying Carey's take on the character.

So no, not boring.

Old school Cable's another matter though.

At the moment...yes, I believe so but in his opening days he was older.


(at least I'm pretty certain that's true. Hold up let me check my Cable #1 on that one)

(at least I'm pretty certain that's true. Hold up let me check my Cable #1 on that one) i beleive it...alot to his story has been added and roided up...but he is still interesting to watch when he is in baby jesus mode.

Cables not boring...it's never been his powerset thats maade me like him,i like his character.

I like the "better worlds are possible, I've seen them" sort of interest to his character. When he tryed to stop Cap from fighting Civil War because he knew how it would end because he'd been there. I like that facet of his character alot.

His old "I'm a badass Blagh! Shoot the guns, Shoot the guns!" personality is boring as hell. It's almost satire in action, really.

I've never cared for Cable. Like Drax, he's just one of those "I'm destined to destroy this big bad villain".

Well. At least Cable's got more shit working for him than Drax. Cable's admitted that Apocalypse is sometimes necessary, he even brought him back from the dead recently.

Drax is just a killing machine that has now served his purpose, though I'm interested in where they take Drax now that he's straight-mudered Thanos.

Depends who's writing him I guess

current Cable is boring in my opinion... this is the badass Cable

I liked the earlier version of Cable. I liked the whole mercenary bit with X-force and he wasnt too powerful because of the virus in his body. I dont care too much about the latest version, ruler of his own nation, too powerful. I guess I like my characters simple which is why I dont care for cosmic beings or Iron Man in his current persona. Superman is another example of a way too powerful character.

I think the whole Messiah complex thingy he had going on in Cable and Deadpool was good (Especially issues 7-12) for about the first 20 or so issues then it got boring real fast

I agree....I hate overpowered characters.

I didn't really care much for the old Cable. Partially because I think they made him seem too strong. He had laser guns from the future, that shouldn't put him on the same level as most of the x-men. They also completely overdid his physical strength.

I'm not too fond of the current Cable either. The one we had during Onslaught and The twelve saga was pretty okay.

Deadpool carries their current book ... in fact, it's usually much beter when they don't even mention Cable.

He wasn't as boring when his messiah complex began, but overrall Cable is quite uninteresting.

Stryfe was a bit more likeable. However, that was only for the fact that Bishop was so much more annoying in Gambit/Bishop: Sons of the Atom than Stryfe.

Cable has one of the best soldier type looks when drawn right though.

Maybe he should be the next Captain America

No.

Cable and Deadpool sucks and it isn't Wade's fault.

Cable & Deadpool is funny (and that is Deadpool's fault)

No it's your fault

Hang your head in shame

aww

I like current Cable, much more so then older Cable. The cunning general/messiah complex/war torn humanitarian personality really actually got me interested in the character, once he started becoming more of a brilliant leader with a continuos trick up his sleeve and a second agenda, and less of a trigger happy, time jumping lunatic

Cosigned. It really added quite a bit of depth to his character.

Ye, he is.
A decade before Marvel started shoving another overhyped creation down our throats - The Sentry! - they gave us Cable. The man is as dull as dishwasher. The best service he performs in CABLE/DEADPOOL, is as a dour foil to Wade's lunacy and funny mishaps.

...........No, wait, it's gone.

i think the running gag in cable/deadpool now is to not have cable appear in any issue

Wade sucks, unfunny, and just plain stupid IMO Reading people trying to force humor into a comic, is like cyber-*****-slapping someone.

'Nuff Said. Not really a Cable fan either, but he's better than Deadpool

You guys realize Liefeld helped create Cable too right?
