Answer: 1986

He appeared in the 201st issue of "Uncanny X-Men", but didn't appear as a superhero until 1990. Cable was very powerful as a child, being able to repel telekinetic attacks before his second birthday!

2. In "Cable and Deadpool" #4, what is the name of the large gun Cable uses?

Answer: Liefeld XS

This was a reference to Rob Liefeld, one of Cable's creators who left Marvel in the 1990's to found Image Comics. He has since done work for DC Comics and Marvel Comics.

3. Who infected Cable with a techno-organic virus?

Answer: Apocalypse

The villainous Apocalypse has been one of the X-Men's deadliest adversaries since he appeared! He created Madelyne Pryor, a clone of Jean Grey, just to mate with Scott and produce Cable.

4. Who is Cable's clone?

Answer: Stryfe

Mother Askani had Cable cloned in case he died from the techno-organic virus. Apocalypse stole the clone and raised it, naming him Stryfe.

Answer: 12 years

Mother Askani brought Scott and Jean into the future, where they raised Cable for twelve years, during which they finally killed Apocalypse and ended his reign.

6. Cable took over the New Mutants. What did he rename them?

Answer: X-Force

He saw them as an asset in his battle against Stryfe and Apocalypse. He outfitted them with weapons and renamed them X-Force, to represent their harsher nature.

Answer: Providence

Providence was created using the remains of the destroyed ship Greymalkin. Cable invited the world's leading scientists and thinkers to live there, hoping to do something beneficial.

Answer: Silver Surfer

This massively injured him, and ripped him of his telekinetic powers, causing Providence to plummet toward the Earth. Luckily, Cable was able to save it.

In this time line, Cable has three claws on his non-robotic arm, which he uses to wound Wolverine. He also kills Charles Xavier.
