No love for Gambit?

ShencotheMC

Y'all really in here acting like dude don't got one of the best books being put out by Marvel at the moment? Word? Dude ain't even getting the John Cena push that cats like Wolverine and Cyclops have been getting yet dude's book is still doing numbers. This ish is ill and my dude is taking it back to the old Remy



(I gotta pick that 3rd one up and cop the rest of them variants now that I think about it)

CopperKing

Triple B's

For some reason... I liked the "Death" version of Gambit

MorganFreemanKing

i aint even know gambit had his own series.

Du_Du

i read gamibit's wikipedia once... the upper levels of his powers were very surprisingly impressive

Lou Cypher

Ive been picking this book up, dont got issue 3 yet, But this book and Hawkeye are suprisingly really good!

I will def cop this next trip to the shop. Isn't it basically gambit doing his side thing as a thief? (co-sign Hawkeye)

How many issues deep is it?

Amotekun

Gambit is that dude.

This is either his third or fourth series.

I have issue 1 to his first series.

Gambit is that nigga he just needs the writer.

Glad to see Gambit is getting some good writing treatment for a change. He's my favorite X-man but it's annoying how they've spent years doing nothing with him but having him play as Rogue's lap dog.

Another disappointment is that it never feels like they do enough with the big changes they make to him. I liked the New Son storyline, but they burned out his powers at the end of it. It would have been cool if he could have kept some of those amped up powers to some capacity. The same goes with his death persona. I feel like they could have done more with it. Gambit and his Death persona were different enough from Archangel to still be interesting.

Word. They straight up turned dude into Drake. I was so pissed when she let Magneto smash and Gambit was steady simping her

The Lonious Monk

Right, the shit doesn't make sense. Gambit was a notorious ladies man. He was fucking Eternals. Why would he go stupid like that over Rogue? Let's be real.

Maximus Rex

Wait, so Marie ain't a virgin anymore? Remy earned that ass. That's fucked up. I would've seen Logan fuck Jeannie as opposed to that fuckery.

I believe Gambit smashed that first during his trial for the Mutant Massacre. She let Magneto smash recently when she finally got control of her powers after the Age of X.

ShencotheMC

Gambit #4 drop tomorrow

ra-mes1

Caught up on ish 1-3. I like. Reading Gambit and Hawkeye at the same time makes me think I really would like to see a team up between them. Both have that IDGAF attitude and pimp hand combo, not to mention "questionable" backgrounds.

The Lonious Monk

Yeah, that might be a pretty cool team-up.

ShencotheMC

Had to order issues 3 and 4 from Midtown comics the other day

ShencotheMC

Finally got a chance to hit up my comic shop and was told gambit only running for 19 issues. Smh doing my nigga so dirty. He got 0% promo too. That's cool marvel, we still out here.

EDIT: i meant to say 19. Well that's as far as Asmus has planned it out

The Lonious Monk

I expected as much. Gambit is still a pretty well liked character, but I don't think he has the star power needed to drive a solo anymore.

The nigga got 0 promo and was still one of the top books. Hopefully the next arc can increase the sales though
