Since i've only got one comic this week, i'm gonna use my new template that i'll be using to log my comics for my chronology project:

Issue(s): Cable & Deadpool #31
Published Date: Oct 06
Title: Casualties Of War
Credits:
Fabian Nicieza - Writer
Staz Johnson - Penciler

Joe Quesada - EIC

Review/plot: Starts off with a good fight between Deadpool and some of the on-the-run heroes. Deadpool is defeated by Cable, who is exhibiting much higher telekinetic power levels than i recall him having (not a surprise that things have changed; i started this series on #29). After a funny scene with Deadpool duct-taped to a chair, Cable returns from a Civil War battle (seems to be the end of Civil War #3) to untie Deadpool and teleport them both to the White House. Cable argues with a president very similar to Bush II. Cable is not necessarily against super-human registration, but opposes the "50 State Initiative" which would place super-human soldiers in every state. Not sure that the 50 State Initiative is being referenced outside of Cable & Deadpool. Hokey: Cable can access the "Infonet", which allows him to download the Library of Congress into White House secret service operatives' brains. Issue ends with the President ordering Deadpool to arrest Cable. The book is funny, has some good action scenes, and is relevant enough to the Civil War plot to justify the crossover, but i feel like the main plot started in #29 (Cable trying to be a good ruler of a country) is basically on-hold for this. The art is good in the action/super-hero scenes, but the President is drawn inconsistently. Quality Rating: B

Historical Significance Rating: Too soon to rate but probably a 3 due to the Civil War crossover.

Chronological Placement Considerations: The big fight at the end of Civil War #3 seems to take place in the middle of this issue. Cable references Thor killing someone on Cap's side. Continuing from last issue, the person dressed as Daredevil is not Matt Murdock.

Characters Appearing: Captain America, Falcon, Goliath, Hercules, Daredevil (Iron Fist),

References: Comics from this time period do not make explicit references.

Cross-over: Civil War

Continuity Implant? N

Reprinted In: N/A

The 50 state initiative is in Civil war (at least the background) and is mentioned in many cross-overs, Ms. Marvel for sure, and probably Thunderbolts.

Good. I was afraid FabNic made something up to make his Civil War tie-in relevant.
