When Cable first travelled back from the future, he found himself in of some money. To that end, he formed a mercenary group and recruited Domino along with cyborg Garrison Kane, ex-soldier G.W. Bridge, tech genius Hammer and the bear-like Grizzly.

Initially the team were called the Wild Pack but eventually got in trouble with Silver Sable's group of the same name. They then changed their name to Six Pack because there were six of them and they all liked beer, which is probably the greatest reasoning behind a name ever.

The Six Pack would take a number of jobs over the years, mostly working for the arms dealer Tolliver (secretly Cable's evil son Tyler) and grew pretty close. However, in their final mission, Cable pushed the team into betraying Tolliver to go after his clone Stryfe. His actions caused the entire team to become fugitives and seemingly got Kane and Hammer killed when he abandoned them in a collapsing building. After Cable's abandonment, the team disbanded.

Domino had numerous run-ins with her former teammates over the years, forming "Three Pack" with Grizzly and Hammer and later joining a new version of the team. Tragically though, she was forced to kill her best friend Grizzly after he was mind-controlled into killing innocent people.

I was just a mild-mannered NCTJ accredited journalist until one day I found out the truth... that I could share my nerdy ramblings with people on the internet! It's just like mumbling to myself on the train, but without all the strange looks.
