Biography[]
Cable traveled back in time to the 20th century where he created a team of mercenaries called the Wild Pack (which later became known as Six Pack). They accepted a job from A.I.M. to retrieve a stolen Fiber Ionic Fibrillator from a HYDRA base in New Mexico. They succeeded in the mission, but Baron Wolfgang von Strucker blew up the installation, forcing Cable to bodyslide his team to safety. Afterward, he time-slid to 1,000 years into the future where he learned about a boy from the past named Sam Guthrie who was destined to become an External High Lord. (X-Force 8)
