I'm not sure how much longer I'm willing to stay with this book. It has surprised me in the past, and I thought it got a lot better and added a great deal more depth to the story once the X-Men were integrated into the plot, but none of the really makes up for the pacing. The pace of this book is very slow, although it doesn't feel terribly decompressed. Just methodical. In that, it gives the reader too much time to figure out what's going on. There were two reveals to speak of this issue, and neither was very well hidden. We have it all but confirmed that the baby grows up to be Hope Summers, Cable's wife. That also means that they find some way to go into the past eventually, but that's a story for another day. The other point is that the state of the world Cable finds himself in was caused by Bishop's action, although they've dropped hints to that right along, it was easily figured out once we saw evolved cockroaches, which scream nuclear war, which in turn scream Bishop "burning the future from the top floor down". The only mystery now is who Bishop meets in the bar, and for once not enough clues are given to tip the plot's hand. The art, I guess, is what it is. At times I feel it's brightness and computer-like qualities are inappropriate for a title revolving around a dystopian future, but I feel like I'd be equally upset if the visuals were too exact, either. For now, I'll take it. But if this title wants to keep me, it's going to have to do something to surprise me.

Cable is a pedophile?[B
Things get heavy when you introduce time travel!
Also, my girlfriend used to be a little girl, so now I’m not sure if that makes me a pedophile.
That cover brings up the possibility of a dad-daughter relationship and having them married in the future makes it really weird.
Just because he called her hope and just because he said your mother, that doesn’t mean anything. I still think it’s rachel summers and he’s just calling her hope. That’s all.
I’m not stating that as my conclusion just because of this issue. I’ve thought that for months now. it’s possible that they’re teasing it so heavily because they’re going to swerve us, but lately I do not trust Marvel to be that subtle.
I have to agree with fractal about the hope thing here. Yes, she is drawn in a very similar fashion, but the red head he met in the first 6 issue arc looks like the same as hope and the little girl too. It may just be a fallacy of olvietti’s art and I think they are just trying to show that cable like his father, has a thing for red heads. Plus, the mother seemed to have absolutly no mutant abilities and remember this kid is supposed to be such a powerful mutant that she was detectable at birth so I find it hard to believe as an adult she wouldn’t seem to have any powers.
Maybe she has sexy amnesia powers?
Marvel try to expand the boundaries concerning sex in comics. First the Furries in X-Force, now "Lolita" in Cable…what next 2 mutants 1 cup?!
