KAM, are you just pissed about the recent Cable/Deadpool making Cable look better than Cap? 😛
🙂 j/k
I like Cable. I never really liked him before, but since Cable & Deadpool he's grown on me alot. He's a mich better character now. I dunno why some people want him to go back to how he was in the 90's. He was dull as hell back then. He's actually interesting now.
I'll be the first to admit that during his first appearances, during the mid 80's, Cable was a lack luster character. He had little to no personality and was ultimately a dull character. Under Liefeld's hand Cable was single handedly the most boring, unprovocative Marvel character I've ever read. Then -- I got hold of him during the Cable one shot vol.1 issues #1 & 2 ( Six Pack! ) as well as X-Cutioners Song. It changed my view of the character. He was precise, tactile and cunning. They'd made him to be more than just a cyborg carrying around big guns. He had become complex, mysterious and actually a decent read. Reading X-Cutioners Song made all the difference between me hating Cable and having gotten everything that involves him. Give the book a read before you judge.
