Superhero Origins: Cable, AKA Nathan Summers
Exterminating evil, one time period at a time. Welcome to and today we will explore the comic book origin of Cable, otherwise known as Nathan Summers. Subscribe►► Facebook►► Twitter►► Instagram►► Suggestion Tool►► Channel Page►►
As with most comic book characters, there are often re-imaginations and different versions to a character’s past. We have chosen to primarily follow the storyline which unfolded in 1986’s “Uncanny X-Men” issue #201 and was expanded on in 1991’s “X-Factor” #67.

wo dafuq is that
Cable always been a bad-ass did not know he Beat Apocalypse !
Thank you so much watch mojo for being fracking awesome
If Cable (Marvel Comics) was ever featured in Death Battle,who do you think should fight him?
•Booster Gold (DC Comics).
•Future Trunks (Dragon Ball Z).
•Homura Akemi (Puella Magi Madoka Magica).
•Lucina (Fire Emblem).
•Seras Victoria (Hellsing).
I'd look this up cuz on deadpool 2 when he was in the phone booth it said Nathan summers coming soon.
This is so confusing to me! But i forgive it because he is such a cool character!
I am looking forward to see him in deadpool 2
The real mystery is where does he get all those pouches?
The most convoluted thing I've ever heard
That… is the most insanely, ridiculously, hilariously convoluted and nonsensical origin story ANY hero has ever had, even by comic book standards, even by X-Men standards!
Also, Scott and Jean have never had kids… and yet have four kids… each of whom is an only child.
DOPE…
deadpool 2 will skip most of this and rightfully so the whole summers tree Cable,Nate Grey,Rachel Summers its not easy to digest without understanding xmen lore which gets pretty complex much moreso then stuff like the fantastic four or avengers.
do the origin story of cable to you know cyclops son
Can't wait for Deadpool 2.Cable looks cool although I wish they had casted Ron Pearlman instead of Josh Brolin.
Cable is one of my favorite heroes ever. But it's funny how he was so much more popular when he was a mystery and he was just this kind of stereotypical, big, rough & tough, solider, wanna-be Terminator type of guy but when they actually revealed his very detailed origin and his role as a chosen one to a whole religion and explained that he's such a great fighter (would beat Wolverine and Captain America by the way) because he had to use his vast powers to hold back his virus. Cable has it all…he's as good a fighter as Wolverine and without his virus he's more powerful than Jean Grey, Xavier and Rachel Summers
Josh brolin is ok, but he's already Thanos. I would of cast jeffrey dean morgan and i wolud cast sofia boutella as domino since she's older.
Cable is badass I can't wait to see him In Deadpool 2
Everyone loves Cable
