Cable #51

Cable finds himself at the center of an overwhelming storm in this February 1998 installment — completely engulfed by a crushing mass of identical armored soldiers, their bared teeth and raised guns pressing in from every angle as his techno-organic eye blazes with fierce determination. José Ladrönn and Juan Vlasco's cover crackles with kinetic energy, Cable's yellow-gauntleted fist punching forward as though the sheer force of his will might hold back the tide. Part four of "The Hellfire Hunt" promises the kind of high-stakes tension that makes this series such a satisfying read.
