One of the great Cable and Deadpool stories is when they team up against some common enemies in the seedy underbelly of the Marvel Universe. Their contrasting personalities, with Cable's serious and brooding nature against Deadpool's zany and talkative style, create really interesting dynamics.
It's hard to give an exact number as new comics are constantly being released and the count keeps changing. But there are a significant number of them over the years.
The 'X - Force' stories involving Cable are also great. He leads the team with his military - like tactics and strong mutant powers. His relationship with the other members of X - Force, like Domino, adds depth to the stories. The battles they face against various threats to mutants show Cable's leadership and strategic thinking.
Cable's height in Marvel Comics isn't precisely defined. However, he's often portrayed as a towering figure, likely exceeding six and a half feet, to showcase his strength and dominance.
