Five issues - five O5 - five cubicles so each issue will take out one O5? I guess..
But... if this young Cable doesn't have the TO Virus, how do we explain the scars around the right eye, which was the entry point of the virus when Nathan was a baby. So the only way that this young Cable would have those scars and not have the TO Virus is if he was cloned after Nathan was infected... just like Stryfe.
Also, some of the necklaces and decorations on young Cable's outfit are reminiscent of what he wore as a young man during the Askani'Son limited series.

This implies that this Cable also came from the future. Let's not forget, Cable's ability to time-travel originally came from a time-travel machine he stole from the Apocalypse worshipping High-Lords in the future that he used to travel back along with his Greymalkin space station. It would be nice to find out that this Cable still has the Professor AI.

I wasn't gonna pick this up. But it ended up being so good. IMO.
Young Cable if he is Tyke and Jeen kid then he around 17 or 16 years old. Give them a few years to have a kid. They them self are around 16 or 17 so yeah.
I dont think he is, because there is no baby Rachel... Unless Jeen also said to baby Rachel she is not her mom.... Damn you writers.
Loved this
1.) we are finally getting a summers-heavy interaction people wanted for years with the 05 , Rachel, cable. Happy for those who have been asking for it.
2.) bloodstorm has Been my favorite alt reality/duplicate character in a long time. Very sad that she will likely be a casualty of this event. I like the 05 more but we know most of them have adult counterparts- bloodstorm seemed more like her own character. I really hoped they find a way to make her an original so that storm could be an “05” in the movies too.Wishful thinking I know.
3.) Scott and bloodstorm would make a cute couple. I’d love to see more.
4.) I’m gettin emotional about the prospect of teen jean leaving. I’ll spare the details and post in the jean Thread instead (when the series concludes)
5.) great art
6.) felt like the letter at the end bordered on spoilers (he mentioned this event being intended
To prune some alternate and duplicate characters down) but also very heartfelt
7. Ironic that for a boook intended to clean house on alternate characters is being carried out by an alternate character.

Your favorite superhero- the one you visit these forums to talk about. Would they talk to others the way you do on this message board?

Surely they are more like 19/20 by now? How long have they been in the present? Jean was in college at the start of Extraordinary, which was pre-Secret War's 16 month time hop. They would have been 17 at the least in the original timeline(Bobby was explicitly said to be the youngest at 16 in 1963's #1).
Let the flames destroy all but that which is pure and true!
Also, as someone who absolutely loved Mackie's Bloodstorm back in the Mutant X days, bringing this alternate version to bum around doing nothing in Blue, only to be 'fridged for Tykes 'development' in this issue was a travesty. A character with Storm's elemental powers plus vampire speed, senses, strength, healing, hypnotism, vermin-controlling, mist-turning, etc, etc, etc powers should have been an uber-powerhouse and getting speared in the back by freaking Ahab because she was too busy sucking Tyke's little *&$* was bull.
