Another throwaway character
GW Bridge was a dope character for a while. His frienemy-ship with Cable got redundant, but a no-nonsense soldier/leader/merc that also values his friendships, and always gets to go head to head with the toughest, is a good character to bring to light.

But I'd like it better if he were playing Fortean. That's a character that he can do wonders with, because he's still a blank slate. And depending on what they do with the Hulks, can exist for a while.

Haven't heard of this character :ehh:
I vaguely remember dude. I had to look him up. Bio says he goes by GW Bridge and was a part of Six Pack, Cable's team. And then I remember this look.

Cable is probably the only thing I'm glad Rob liefeld did.
GW Bridge looks like a different skin for Cable.

He did Deadpool too though if I'm not mistaken, right?

Liefeld and Jim Lee is what I grew up on, so I have a weird love for some of his designs. They're just so overblown with 80's machismo and pockets. There's a pocket for everything.

:yeshrug: Nothing is wrong with casting lesser known characters. As long as the characters portrayed are dope I’m cool. Idris Elba as Bloodsport in The Suicide Squad movie, is a great example of that. We don’t have to turn DOOM, Magneto, or Prof. X black. Just give more black comic book characters a shot in the spotlight.

He was Director of SHIELD for a while, and would drop Cable info on their proposed actions against mutants. I think he was Director before Maria Hill...but they kept rotating that position, so there could be 1 or 2 in between. But he and Cable would be cool, then beef, then cool. GW's beef was always because Cable would leave, and he's big on loyalty. And then he got killed.

Yeah I remember him being a frenemy so to speak. I used to have a gang of X-Force comics and I feel like he was in there periodically.
