CABLE #2: THE FIVE IN ONE spoilers and review

[Knives]

I cannot say that I am a fan of the young Cable but I confess that found this issue very fun .

I miss the sisters having different appearances from Bendis' time because it was much easier to identify them.

[Glio]

Yes, Cuckoos are not really clones of Emma, they are like idealized versions of Emma. I suppose that if Emma dies and is resurrected by the Five, she will also be resurrected as she is now without having to do all the cosmetic surgery again.

[Micabe]

that could have (and most likely) been genetically altered to select for certain features

To look exactly like the cosmetically enhanced Emma Frost?

[Glio]

Yes, it is stupid, but a superhero comic will never lose the opportunity to make handsome characters without logical reason.

By the way, when they are diamond they cannot use telepathy. A minor mistake.

[MechaJeanix]

I'm sure it has been already said but the cuckoos used the diamond ability in Phoenix Warsong, but I'm not sure if they have used it any other time until now. I am not surprised since even Monet can use her penance form. Rachel is using an aspect of her long neglected powers as well.

Anywho.. I loved this issue. Kid Cable has grown on me and I found him to be fun. I loved the inclusion of Omerta and Stinger. Scott and Emma were great. It was a fun read.

They used it in Bendis run, both against Dormammu and when they were superheroing with the other students.

[Godlike13]

I really dig this series. It’s too funny.

[Glio]

Normally they do not use it because they are usually in support positions, not in the front line. Virtually all telepaths today have a secondary power to hit things. There is always anti-telepathic technology so that fights don't end instantly and you need to give them something to do. A sword, TK, diamond form...

What surprises me is that Karma doesn't have something like that yet.

She has her cyber leg

[Glio]

She has her cyber leg

Yeah, but she doesn't do cyborg super kicks.

Which would be awesome.

[Ra-El]

Yeah, but she doesn't do cyborg super kicks.

Which would be awesome.

They should take a page from Fullmetal Alchemist and put a rocket launch on her leg.

[Micabe]

Heh! Reminds me of the movie "Terror Planet" starring Rose McGowan.

[houndsofluv]

wasn't expecting followup on Stinger lolll lived for that.
otherwise this was okay, the cuckoos were fun . not great not bad just , yeah, it came out and did what it did . gonna stick w/ it

[Alex.]

I thought they took Emma’s eggs to make them, not just her DNA.

This is the explanation we were given in Phoenix Warsong, but most people seem to think they're just clones. So if you go with the latter, assume they were genetically altered (as in nicer noses and antural blond hair, which is not the case for Emma)
