Cable #42

Cable looms large and battle-ready on this April 1997 cover, blades raised and techno-organic arm gleaming in gold and blue, while a fierce, bone-wielding Marrow lunges into the foreground — and the cover banner makes her return official. Randy Green and Scott Hanna deliver a kinetic composition that sells the tension between these two very different fighters, with the tagline "Bad to the Bone" adding a wry nod to Marrow's signature power set. Writer Todd DeZago and artist Randy Green team up for "Tolerance," a title that feels pointed given just how little these two characters seem to have for each other.
