Returning to his roots as a time-traveling soldier, Cable Volume 3 launched as part of the ResurrXion event. Written by James Robinson with art by Carlos Pacheco, this 5-issue arc follows Nathan Summers on a high-stakes race through history to stop the villainous Conquest. From the wild west to feudal Japan and ancient Mayan civilizations, Cable must prevent Conquest from assembling the "Time Sword," a weapon capable of rewriting reality itself. It is a fast-paced, globe-trotting action epic that emphasizes Cable’s role as the lone guardian of the timestream.
The series is a visual treat, utilizing Pacheco's cinematic style to render diverse historical settings and futuristic technology. As Cable tracks his target through the centuries, he faces off against "futuristic samurai" and ancient warriors alike. This run is a definitive look at Cable as the ultimate "Time Warrior," operating independently of the X-Men to ensure that the fabric of history remains intact against cosmic-level threats.
