Your Weekend Moment of Psychic Nosebleed Zen: Nate Grey and Cable
May 4th, 2007
![]() A psychic nosebleed two-fer this time. In a previous post, we saw Nate Grey’s nose start to bleed when he got too near to Cable, since apparently meeting your alternate dimensional self causes a nosebleed — or at least it does if your both psychic.
In X-Man #14, Nate Grey and Cable join up to fight Exodus (talk about your consummate ’90s villains — Marvel should have just let him remain forgotten instead of bringing him back post-House of M). Because they are in such close proximity to each other, both Nate and Cable end up with a bit of a nosebleed (and an ear bleed too, in Nate’s case). Have you noticed how Nate always seems to get the worse of it whenever he encounters Cable? Remember he’s supposed to be the more powerful mutant. I guess that’s a corollary to the rule about meeting your alternate dimensional psychic self: whoever is the stronger telepath will bleed more. You’d better get a pen and write that down — you never know when it might come in handy. All previous Psychic Nosebleed Zen posts |

Here’s a question for you. It seems like more than half of these Nosebleed Zen moments are from X-Men comics. Is this accurate or is my memory playing tricks on me?

I think that’s fairly accurate, but then the X-Men (and all affiliated X’s) do have the highest concentration of psychics and telepaths…

Exodus? Exodus…
Wait, was that the guy who wandered around picking up mutants to join Magneto’s Acolyte Army thing? Recruited Colossus at his sister’s funeral?

It looks like to me that Nate is also much younger than Cable. I’d assume that Cable fares better due to his long history dealing with this sort of thing.
