PERSONAL COMMENTS:

To date this one was something that was completely off the wall different and unique to request. Art by Ken Christiansen, with his amount of awesomeness on Transformers in mind I thought that only he could deliver on this Cable Prime request and he truly didn’t let me down. Something about Cable as a tank really made this come out and adding the silver top with Cable’s signature eye really leaves me keeping this one up in the man cave.

PERSONAL FAVORITE LINE:
“Dad, why is your fever dream on the news?” – Hope Summers

NOW FOR THE BORING STUFF
Published: December 2012

KEY ISSUE: No but it is the first continuous series since Marvel chose to “kill” off Cable during the Second Coming Series.

Ken Christiansen Cover Artist – It’s a Blank sketch so it’s really whoever you decide to get on there.

So K How Many Are There???
Some how I thought there were more… funny enough I own almost very one of these that have been graded as a Signature Series book. In total there is 1 9.8 blue label, 1 qualified green label, 6 of those coveted 9.8SS, 6 9.6SS, a single 9.2 and this 9.0SS. Out of 19 total CGC Signature Series books graded here I own all but 3 from this group.

Story Title: Prologue – “Some Ones Got Bad Dreams”

MY TYPE OF SUMMARY:
Cable, Domino, Doctor Nemesis and Colossus are in a partly destroyed factory, surrounded by dead bodies. They are confronted by the Uncanny Avengers. Havok asks Cable to explain the situation to which he answers that he can't adn then teleports away with the others.

A few days before all of that happens, Cable spied on Hope while she talks to a woman about what seh doesn't like about her new "normal" life. He then meets with Forge in a bunker under an aviation graveyard. Forge gives him a new technologic, weaponized arm. He then shortly suffers from headaches and goes on to visit someone.
While on a mission to find someone in a secret base, Domino is surprised by Hope who wants to find her father and make a deal with Domino.

After recruiting Doctor Nemesis, Cable takes him to his secret base, where he is confronted by a furious Hope. She screams at him for not having contacted but insteatd spied on her, but then he tells her that he missed her too and they hug. Right after they let go Cable has another headache and then Hope touches him, she has the same vision that he does. Later, down in the bunker, as the rest of the team talks about Cables condition, they see his vision in the news.
