If you enjoy Marvel Comics, you should pick up issue #1 of the new Cable series that goes on sale this week. The author, Duane Swierzcynski, was a professor of mine back in college, and is a top-notch writer (if you like Cable, you should also check out his novels "The Wheelman" and "The Blonde"). He's actually the man who convinced me to get into journalism...so I guess I should blame him for being in the buttcrack of New Mexico.

Anyway, check it out.

And Cable was created by Liefield.

So, uh, screw that.

And that's partly why Deadpool will never be utterly awesome.

That and I really really hate time travelling characters from the future. Including Bishop.

Trust me on this, give Duane a chance. The guy can be really sick and twisted as anyone who's read his novels can tell you. Two chapters into The Wheelman, he had a character based on himself get murderred by having an assasin shove a pen through his throat.

Gratituous violence does not a good comic make.

Well, it can make for a fantastic comic if GantZ is anything to go by, but for a character like Cable in a Marvel book, I think not.

And just because I can't reiterate it enough.

CABLE: EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
