History
Nathan Summers was born the son of Scott Summers and a clone of Jean Grey, unknowingly bred to be the ultimate mutant. However, he was soon infected with an incurable techno-organic virus that would slowly turn him into a cyborg. A woman from the future offered to cure Nathan by taking him two-thousand years into the future: a future ruled by the diabolical First Mutant, Apocalypse. Under the title of "Cable", Nathan was raised to fulfill his destiny as the savior of the Clan Askani, and has led a resistance against Apocalypse, but has both recently and frequently returned to the past to try and prevent the destruction that shaped him into a cybernetic warhorse.
