CABLE & DEADPOOL #24 (2006)

Cable reveals nerd-like knowledge of comic book artists.

It seems Cable knows that the reporter has information about the project, and Cable wants the tech.
It’s a force field.
Spider-Man is able to stymie Deadpool, but as a result of the conflict Nick Fury realizes Cable is getting close to the project. So Fury calls in a better bodyguard: Captain America. Fury is convinced that Cable is intent on world domination and asks Cap to investigate.
Cap goes to Providence undercover, posing as a follower of Cable’s messianic message. After they fight, Cap learns that Cable has his shield, from the future, and there’s some seeding of the next Apocalypse story (ugh).



Cap becomes convinced that Cable is not a bad man. In fact, Cable tells Captain America that the Commission on Superhuman Activities has bugged Avengers Tower.
This sows some seeds for the Civil War event.
