Description
After a couple of years of slowly trickling in panel pages from this run, I finally managed to get one that satiates my hunger for a seminal piece.

I love the collection of characters on this DPS - Cable, Blaquesmith, Storm, Jean, Scott, Moira and Chuck. Even cooler is I finally get one of those old-school X-Men roll calls in the narration. The weird dynamic of Cable being Cyke's kid and being raised in the future by time-displaced versions Scott & Jean (Slym & Redd) added so much to why I originally gravitated to the character. While the big, crazy guns and techno-organic arm made him a cool visual, it wasn't till the backstory started filling in that I really got behind Cable. So the narration box with "Cable's parents" is a really meaningful touch to me here.

SUPER happy with this win!

Fantastic DPS!  Ian Churchill put his stamp on this series back in the nineties.  Killer aquisition.

Hello, it's me
I was wondering if after all these years you'd like to meet
Cable mother daddy things
They say that time's supposed to heal ya, but arm ain’t done much healing

Hello, can you hear me?
I'm Devasurendra dreaming about Ian’s X-Men team
When inks were Hanna and clean
I've forgotten how it felt before the Liefeld drew our feet

There's such a difference between us
And a million styles

Artwork that will satisfy

I must've called from future times
To tell you I'm angry for everything X-Men’ve done
But when I call, Eranga’s never at home

Wow!  As fine an X double-pager as they come.  As popular as Churchill was for a while, I still think he's somewhat under rated among X artists, and artists in general.  But I've always enjoyed his artwork.  What's so cool about this piece is that, whereas the relfections of Cable were digitized in the published spread, you get all the actual line art in the original.  Congrats on this stellar example.

I'm a big fan of Churchill and feel he's a bit underappreciated for the quality of work he put out into the world. This is an awesome DPS, congrats man!

Not just seminal, but SEMINAL! This is gorgeous. And it speaks to everything that was magical and special of the 90's art. Just looking at this image brings me back to such a great place. What a fantastic addition to your already fantastic collection. Congrats, E!!!

Jawdroppingly cool DPS! Ian Churchill's work here is nothing short of superb! I love all the characters that Ian includes here. His portraits of each of the X-Men are right on! And Scott Hanna's inks really bring the characters to life! Fabulous pick-up!

Churchill brought an Image feel to the book but with a high quality that I think was absent from most Image books by this point.  This is an amazing DPS!

I like that you used "satiates" as opposed to "satisfies" - there's something more visceral about the former :)  Which I think applies here!

Big congrats, man!  So many X characters featured highlighted by your main man, the Son of Askani!  And in that nicely detailed '90s house style.  I'm sure you've pored over lots!
