Why It Matters
The CGC label records the first appearances of Cable, Stryfe and the Mutant Liberation Front. Cable's introduction brings him into conflict with Stryfe's group, establishing characters and a rivalry that continue through the New Mutants and X-Force stories.
The red cover features Cable prominently, with cover credits to Rob Liefeld and Todd McFarlane. This photographed copy has a Spider-Man logo in the lower-left cover box and printed US, Canadian and UK cover prices. The rear cover carries a Taito advertisement for Sky Shark on the Nintendo Entertainment System.
