Hey,

I recently got back into collecting comics...So i've missed out on quite a lot...I was of course, a fan of Gambit as a kid...I was wondering what he's been up to for the past...well, for a VERY long time...Fights w/ other characters and so forth? Possibly even links? Thanks a lot.:sym:
 
Well...I'm sorry, but I have to disappoint you.
Gambit hasn't been himself in many months.
No cool fights, not too many cool one-liners, zippo.
Thank you Marvel "writers" for being so blatant
in your childish dislike for a fictional person.

To put it simply, he's been thru heck and back and treated like crap for the past while. Very long while, really.

SPOILERS (highlight to read)






To summarize:

He lost his powers and got
them back.

He went blind and regained his sight.

As far as I know, as of late he became the horsemen death,
tried to kill Rogue, (twice, I think), and is taking a "break"
from the comics for awhile, but is most likely going to be back.
(Read: The so-called writers hate him, so they don't feel like
writing him right now. It was rumored that they were actually
going to get rid of him for a bit there (!), but we got him back-just not
ASAP. And that's not just my opinion!)

That's all I know. Oh, and his relationship pre-Death with Rogue
was crap-tastic. There was this whole mess with Mystique,
which led to them fighting and Rogue being a royal witch to the poor guy.
END SPOILERS






Being a Gambit Fan-girl, myself, I'm just as upset as his male fans.
Sure appreciate him for the fact that he's hawt, but besides
that, I like him (even if it doesn't always come across) for
the fact that he's such a cool character.

I don't know if anyone here was a member, but I really miss
the Gambit Guild forums. I think this time they are really gone
for good. It was a great way to get out all that fan-girl-ness
that is pent up inside me 24/7.:heart:
RIP Gambit Guild.:csad:
(Guess there's no reason I can't do the same here or elsewhere,
but there it was just more special.)
 
Thanks...
Does anyone know of anything else? I heard something about him being close to an omega mutant and even *spoilers*

him dying in the ultimates?
 
Gambit did die in the Ultimate X-men series. He was crushed to death along with Juggernaut. Rogue had absorbed his powers from him as a final good-bye but has seemed to lost them in resent issues.

Has anyone heard about when he is going to make an appearance in the 616 universe again? I heard that he was supposed to appear at some point in Carry's run on adjectiveless X-men, but I'm not sure when.
 
I just dloaded that one comic...It was really good...Any other recommendations? (I dloaded the Gambit series along w/ Wolv/Gambit) ...But any recommended issues in other series? thanks!

Post #200 (10 months away) and it's only for one appearance. Unless there's a new book unannounced that features him along the way. But that's what we know so far.
 
Heres a really dumb question...Which comics are the 616 universe?

The ones that don't have the word "Ultimate" in front of the title :whatever:
