Cable #18

In "Brood Chapter One: Bishop Takes Pawn," Cable and Hope are on the run through the void aboard a massive vessel, pursued by Bishop in his own ship. With Bishop manipulating Hope’s friend Emil into thinking Cable is the enemy, the tension escalates as Hope confronts the deception—only for a far more dangerous threat to emerge. Written by Duane Swierczynski and illustrated by Gabriel Guzman, with colors by Thomas Mason and letters by VC's Joe Caramagna, this issue delivers a tense, high-stakes chase underscored by the arrival of the Brood. The cover, by David Wilkins, captures the moment of dread as the ship’s fate hangs in the balance.
