Mar 24, 2021From Limbo to Krakoa to Madripor, the creativity simply bursts from each page and it easily remains one of the best X-books on the market today. Read Full Review

Mar 24, 2021Duggan also uses situational humor pretty well throughout this installment as CABLE rolls through his Rolodex of old friends for assistance. Can I just say; there is just something about Magik that great writers can utilize which makes a story pop even without action or violence. Yet, that leads me to the biggest drawback of the issue. There wasnt much development. Ultimately, the issue could be summarized in one sentence if need be which makes it a hard sell for a fan to buy if money is tight. Read Full Review

A very fun issue. Cable's interactions with various mutants provided both entertaining moments and enlightening insights into our young protagonist's increasingly desperate search for Stryfe. That Magik scene was definitely my favorite part.

A strange beginning only progresses towards the fanboys of geriatric-Cable to finally get a promise of the ressurection they always wanted! Not the best decision for Marvel to repeal, since I actually like Kid Cable better than the geriatric. I never read Cable before this iteration showed up unless he was kicking it with Deadpool. Shit, Stryfe's already here - why not throw Genesis & Ultimate Cable and have one big happy family? Speaking of happy families, the interactions between Cable and his sister and daughter are what drove this otherwise filler issue. Noto's pencils really phone home that these characters are related as the script brings levity to how the Summers' family is possibly the oddest in the Marvel Universe, linked by more

Fun but nothing really happens.

This was like watching someone walk around the neighborhood looking for his lost dog? The most mundane decompressed story telling by Duggan that could have been shown in 3 to 4 pages. Noto is good as usual.

Kid Cable trawls through his and Stryfe's continuity links in an unsuccessful bid to turn up some leads. It's good fun, but undeniably decompressed and basic. And it comes awful close to admitting Kid Cable is a mistake and we should just get back to Grunkle Cable. The art's a treat. I hope before he bows out, Kid Cable gets to have a fairly involved spat with Quentin Quire over who should date which Cuckoo(s).
