Emmas puffy cheeks are further proof that Scott has knocked her up.

I just want them to get this book to the point where Cable is doing some epic things again like raising Providence from the ocean, using massive amounts of his power to change things, etc. The whole run from Bishop angle is only going to work for so long....and it's somewhat boring.

When did Beast grow a foot and a half? Other than that the preview looks...okay. Still don't like this time-hopping direction for Cable and want him back in the present, but I might check this out if the rest of the X-men are in it. I'll probably flip through it in the store before I buy, though. Just in case the X-men are only in the first few pages.

emma frost's hair has NEVER, EVER, EVER been curly. seriously, only since greg land has it been/ i HATE this, so much. just giv e her the straight hair and make someone like magma have the curly. don't switch it around, it messes with their iconic look. i think the long straight hair makes her look more like an ice queen instead of just a ditzy model.

Hmm. From the preview, seems as if Emma finds out something she didn't want to know? Hmm... maybe that Bishop is right?

I just really don't like this baby, also really don't like them aging Cable like this. He was old enough as it is, now he looks really old.

Well, to be honest there are a couple of Emma shots that are nice enought






But the colour and the somewath photorealist art... I am not convinced that are the best suited to have in a x-book

And yes, Cable is becoming too old

Cable fighting an Insectoid alien with a scythe and a chainsaw? I approve.

It does seem interesting that they keep aging Cable and the baby so fast. I'm expecting some sort of twist somewhere along the way. Perhaps Cable gets far enough into this alternate future to meet up with a younger version of himself, and that's who ultimately comes back to the present with the kid?

There was that rumor awhile back...

Ack! The art is terrible. Emma looks absolutely awful.

I don't get the aging of Cable. Ariel has been drawing him like he's in his 60s before, and now he looks like he's John McCain's age.

I've always thought by the time Nathan and the "baby" return, she'll be a teenager, but if they keep aging Nate, he'll be using a walker.
