    Basically it's cable taking on all the X-Men and beat them back with advanced gadgets. He's unable to kill Xavior cause he can't do it with all the X-Men around so he kidnapped Jean and made a bargain with Xavior while he went through his time portal thing. During his fight with Wolverine, it sounded like cable was in fact an old version of wolverine btw. Logan tries for the scent but just smells himself. Bishop comes in looking for cable and logan just knocks him out and brings him to xavior. Bishop tells his side of the story of wanting to save xavior from cable.

    Somewhere else we see Jean telling cable that he'll lose next time with the X-Men and he just say's "not alone jeanie" and out the door we see the ultimate six pack. To be continued......

    END OF SPOILER

    I found this issue enjoyable but not something to say wow except for the ending part. This storyline would have such more potential if it was'nt for the fact that cable's wolverine himself. Let's wait and see in 30 day's.

    Am I to take this that it looks like Cable was taking off his shirt as if to imply he was going to sleep with Jean aka rape her? Or am I way off base on this?

    Sleeping with someone is *not* "also known as" raping.

    Also, there is no indication in the book that he's even taking his shirt off at all, so I don't know where the idea came from. Cable's grabbing his own wrist, but that seems like he's just rubbing a wound from the fights he just had.
    I've got a great idea. How about we keep blaming the other party. Yeah. That's healthy.

    "The letters page for this was a joke. All of them were about how much they loved the Magician and Kirkman's arcs. Right. I bet. Not one negative comment in them. And there were more ads than drawn pages."

    Not from me but this one really fits this book.
    Another issue out of the window.

    Sorry, just read more into what I had put into spoiler tags. Perhaps no one else came to the conclusion due to the way it was writen and the way the words played out. Just never know today.

    Took "ultiamte six pack" perhaps cable without the shirt showing his chest. The out the door I picture perhaps the scene moving away from them with just him. Seeing as Jean was kidnapped I put all those things together along with the comment "jeanie" and since he just attacked and kidnapped a person and seeing as Wolverine has feelings for Jean and this guy is pretty much "bad" by the sounds of it, didn't seem like an unfair conclusion to make based on what was given (which is why people when giving spoilers should be more detailed and clear in their reporting).

    Sure sleeping with someone isn't raping them unless it's by force which I pictured might have been happening taking everything into consideration.

    Hey if I"m wrong then so be it. Just been doing a lot of things where I've had to read hidden meanings behind things and/or series of images. It might have spilled over to this.

    I don't read Ultimate X-men since Millar turned off to this series (haven't really cared to much to even download it to be honest) so I was just wondering what was going on.

    Reading the the spoilers this arc isn't turning out to be as important as Kirkman made it out to be.

    I can not belive I'm actually hoping that Cable is a Wolverine clone. To be honest I really don't want that either but it looks like it will be one or the other.

    Where are you getting that Cable was taking off his shirt? He was just standing there and rubbing the wrist of his cybernetic arm. I think you're seeing something that isn't there.

    Where did you see it written that his shirt was off? He is clothed in the book.

    He mis-understood 'Ultimate Six Pack' as 'Cable's Six Pack' aka Shirtless Cable.

    Oh! My bad. I got it, now. You thought that "Ultimate Six Pack" was a play on words about Cable's stomach, not the team called Six Pack. Okay. I understand now.

    Where do people keep getting this "Wolverine clone" stuff from?

    Exactly how many times does Cable have to say "I remember when I was that young" or "Xavier eventually ruins the world" before people get it?
