Recent developments
Recently the group has been reformed by S.H.I.E.L.D. under the leadership of G.W. Bridge for the purpose of attacking Cable. New members include Constrictor, a mercenary who once shared an apartment with Deadpool, Anaconda, who was formerly employed by the Serpent Society, and Solo, a vigilante bio-teleporter with a penchant for attacking terrorists. Rounding out the group is longtime Six Pack member Hammer. Following their failed attempt to defeat Cable, G.W. and Hammer are placed in suspended animation, while Domino is "converted" to Cable's side. Solo, Constrictor, and Anaconda join Cable in exchange for money. They are later sent to find Cable, but are trapped in his mind, which is quickly fading away. However, they are all eventually saved by Deadpool and the Fixer, and returned to their bodies. Constrictor eventually abandoned the group, and was, unbeknownst to the reader, replaced by Deadpool. The Six Pack was hired by the American Government to commit acts of terrorism against the fictional country of Rumekistan, being led at this point by Cable. The objective was to taint Cable's reputation so as to crumble his secure reign over the country. They did not succeed, however, as it was all seemingly a part of Cable's "Plan." Deadpool also seems to have left the group after their defeat at Cable's hands. The captured Six Pack members are returned to their respective countries by Rumekistan forces.
