Now you did it! I'm *scared*. Really fu*king scared!
Your theory is so *beatyful* and perfect, in every way. A shame really that
it won't happen. I mean, like Claremont *might* have thought about something
similar, but what with Cable being a creation of Rob Liefield(DIEDIEDIE) and
all that, it seems *very* unlikely that anyone at Marvel would have the brains &
balls to make it so. Even if Claremont would have left his plot line for the
new X-makers to use, would they have used it? nope.
