Stories

War Baby Chapter Two · 24 pages
Cable and Bishop battle as Bish ponders how he was able to make it from the past all the way to the year 2043 to confront Nate and the baby under his care. Cable's time mechanism seems to be broken and he finds he cannot jump out of the conflict.

Publisher’s description

There's only one thing worse than a heavily-armed man with murder on the brain. And that's several heavily-armed men, none of whom give a damn about Cable's mission to save mutantkind from total extinction. Meanwhile, Cable's newest enemy - Lucas Bishop - crawls back from bloody oblivion and tracks down his quarry the hard way: one brutal time jump after another. When Bishop finally catches up wit Cable, he's not going to be in the mood for small talk. It'll be kill first, ask questions later.
