Cable (Nathan Summers): zodiac sign and birth chart

Cable has no canon birthday. Neither the comics nor the films give one. Read from his personality, he's a Scorpio, with Moon and Mercury in Scorpio too: a soldier from the future who keeps a virus back with his mind and a plan in every pocket. An Aquarius rising keeps his feelings on a long distance line.

SourceNo canon birthday: Marvel's comics and handbooks give Nathan Summers no date, and Deadpool 2 doesn't either. The chart is NEBO's take, read from his personality.

NEBO's take

No birthday in canon. His personality says Scorpio.

We ran Cable through the same model that matches people to characters in the app, and looked at which chart gets him most often. It reads him as water first: intense, guarded and carrying a lot of weight alone.

Canon

No canon birthdayNever given in the comics or the films

NEBO's take

Scorpio SunRead from his personality
  • Sun CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeScorpio

    Scorpio holds the line. His telekinesis spends years holding a techno-organic virus back inside his body.

  • Moon CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeScorpio

    A Scorpio Moon never forgets a loss. His parents send him into the future as a baby so he can live.

  • Rising CanonNo birth timeNEBO's takeAquarius

    No birth time in canon. First impression: a soldier with a metal arm, a robotic eye and a gun bigger than the car.

  • Mercury CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeScorpio

    Scorpio Mercury reads people. He builds X-Force by hand-picking a squad and teaching them to work as one.

  • Venus CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeNo clear pick

  • Mars CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeCancer

    Cancer Mars protects the small and the young. He raises Hope Summers himself and runs with her through time.

What canon does give: a baby sent to the far future to survive, who grows up as a warrior. Scorpio answers with a lifetime of holding things back, and Aquarius with the distance.
