Description

The first issue to fully feature Cable. He is more in the stalk/stealth mode with this page against the Mutant Liberation Front, but, nonetheless, he appears in the last two panels. I do not have the issue with me, but I believe that Cable is only featured in about 7 to 8 pages from this issue for his first appearance. If a Liefeld fan could confirm my assumption, I would appreciate the update.

Addendum: Since I posted this page many years ago without much fanfare, a sub-set of original art collecting has taken hold of our 'investment' hobby now. Without identifying the numerous collectors who have elevated birth and first appearance original art pages to all time highs, this page is from Cable's first appearance. As a result, I changed the title heading now that I have moved this to my Featured gallery section.
