11 Most Ludicrous Superhero Origin Stories Of All-Time

11. Cable

cable_backpack Okay, let's see if we can get this straight. Cable is the son of Cyclops and Madelyne Pryor. When he was very young, he was taken to the future, where he was raised to be a soldier by his father and the woman his mother was cloned from, who themselves were brought to the future under assumed names, because their daughter from another future, who had been lost in time and was therefore older than both of them, brought them there so that they could prepare Cable to go back in time in a spaceship and fight his own clone, all while dealing with a future-disease that's turning him into a robot. Got it? Good.
