I love Duggan's Jean. Her playing the mediator and voice of reason just fits. But I'm sure the choice to lose their teenage son is still weighing heavy on her as well.
This discussion should involve rachel as well, she’s one of the pillars of cable’s far future timeline
Ommadon: “By summoning all the dark powers I will infest the spirit of man So that he uses his science and logic to destroy himself. Greed and avarice shall prevail, and those who do not hear my words shall pay the price. I'll teach man to use his machines, I'll show him what distorted science can give birth to. I'll teach him to fly like a fairy, and I'll give him the ultimate answer to all his science can ask. And the world will be free for my magic again.”
That's a divergent Rachel though. Current Rachel has some lingering memories of being Mother Askani, but Cable's future being constantly changing caused her to also be sent to Gaunt's future. It should involve Rachel because they're siblings.
As an aside, there's no way Stryfe gets dealt with here - and if he does, it'll probably really messy. I do wonder if he'll be present in Hickman's Inferno or if he'll be someone that Cable has to deal with after Last Annihitaion.
Maybe she doesn’t have to. I still think somehow Kid Cable got replaced by a Stryfe clone and doesn’t even know it.
Not sure if that means the original Kid Cable already went back to the future or what, though. Guess we’ll find out. But that scene in X of Swords where he nicks the thumb on his left hand with glass, and it shows as flesh and blood and is bleeding which Apocalypse notices… I just don’t think it was an artist mistake.

Yes. It's like I was just posted on Jean's thread: it's not the first time that Jean is shown to be more practical while Scott is more emotional when it comes to their family. It's so interesting because it's usually the other way around, but when you consider their family backgrounds, it makes sense. :)
EDIT: And that doesn't mean it's not heavy on her. But it's like she understands, perhaps in an sub-conscious level, that she has to act differently than her normal for everyone's sake.

Love this from now on Charles and Erik are the "helmet bros" to me
Nice, we are getting Old man Cable back but I get the feeling we may keep young Cable, not sure about it but I could see them making an exception for them or Old man Cable could get back from one of the futures.

It's possible, since the issue was written by Duggan himself and he normally edits the text once the art is ready. If it wasn't intentional, they could have mirrored the image and made him get the cut on his right thumb instead. Besides, Apocalypse watching it seems very deliberately.
But it's possible no one saw the mistake too... In terms of story it would make more sense that he isn't a clone.
I prefer elder Cable but I have to say I find the Summers being more of a familiar unit very refreshing.
I was trying to do too much and not doing any of it as well as I could. But I've had a change of mind... though not everyone shall enjoy it. I will.
