So we finally learn more about how Kid Cable has come to once again lead X-Force. Prior to the events of Extermination, he was fighting a group of baddies called the New Canaanites in the super-far-off future... when suddenly his world begins unraveling. Thanks to an old and formerly dead friend, Blaquesmith, he learns of his true mission. Which again... if you read Extermination, now you know.

Meanwhile, his actions have lead Stryfe, aka Chaos Bringer to discover him. But just prior to this happening, the Transian military leader Constantin discovers Ahab and his hounds. Later, Stryfe negotiates a mutant nation that is essentially used to lure Nathan Summers to them. And it works. Kid Cable will do anything to get future daughter Rachel Summers back, even if it’s willing to walk with Stryfe into a portal, but what’ll happen next? Well have to wait to find out as the 4 part CounterfeitKing begins in the very next issue.

So although it just answered a few questions about how future/past Nathan Summers came to find the original X-Men, at the very least we learn more about it's setup. It seems like Cable has been at war in every single iteration of his existence, and where Cable finds a war, he always seems to find a Stryfe. I'm looking forward to seeing where they go from here. I give this one an 8/10.
