Rated T+
Cable's new story arc starts with a bang as Zac Thompson & Lonnie Nadler sculpt Cable and his daughter Hope into real three-dimensional characters. The overwhelming presence of the shape-shifting fear-monster stalking them ensures that this is more of a spine-chiller than a heartwarmer, though. The script gives Germán Peralta free reign to imagine a creeptastic beastie, and Mr. Peralta is very, very imaginative. Bundle up tight and leave a light on as you read this superbly spooky bedtime story. Read Full Review
Cable is haunted by the past and takes full responsibility for his future as a father. Read Full Review
Cable being Cable, those specters are especially literal and deadly, but its good to see "the man called Cable" fulfilling his potential again. Read Full Review
A new creative team brings back the Cable we all know and love! Cable and Hope are together again and its definitely a story Cable fans wont want to pass up. Read Full Review
This a good start for a new creative team. We know we'll be visiting past eras of Cable's history and they'll be filtered through this new villain, but I'm excited to see what that really means. Read Full Review
"Cable" #155 is off to a good start on this new run, relying on two elements of Nathan's story that are compelling and worth exploring. If the script can better balance the tough-guy genes of the character on future issues, this could become a very strong arc. Read Full Review
This issue marks a solid turn for the better in this series. As the release day for "Deadpool 2" approaches on May 18, Josh Brolin's portrayal of the character in the film is certain to bring more visibility to the Askani'son. Issue #156 already promises another major character appearance, so here's hoping for another success in the X-universe. Read Full Review
Loved it!
A far more expressive Cable draws Hope into a father-daughter fight against Metus, a horrible shape-shifting techno-organic monster that's chased him for decades. Formidable character work and even more impressive art ennoble a plot that's twisty but just a little predictable. In a major departure from this title's previous brainless story arcs, this new looks like a very cerebral, very scary monster hunt.
