He came right in humiliating Wolverine, so he won instant points with me. I like him.
 
Always liked Gambit. Couldn't really tell you why, since he's just a mass of clichés tied together by a Cajun accent. Maybe because he was one of the more fun parts of the '90s cartoon.
 
The only time he's been good is in the old cartoon from the 90s. Otherwise... well, there is a reason 99% of his fans are girls...
 
I don't get the Gambit hate. The dude is cool to me. He's got cool powers, and a decent and witty personality. Sometimes I think the lot of ya are just too angry for your own damn good. Back in my day we only had 1 superhero to read about, and that was in the Sunday paper! And back then we had to share the paper with the whole neighborhood because it was fifTEEN cents. God damn youngins!:argh:
 
He's awesome in Marvel vs Capcom, and one of the enjoyable things to me about that bleh cartoon of the 90s that made the cartoon stick up a little more than boring
 
The best thing I can say about him are that there are worse characters.
 
I've always loved Gambit but feel his constantly being tied to a love battle with Rogue takes away from the character. He's been on his own in X-23 and I've been loving it! My favorite scene of late was when he took out Daken by blowing up his arm, and then I loved him in the 90's during the first issue of his ongoing when he took out the X-Cutioner by spitting a charged piece of chewing gum in X-Cutioner's face and blew him out the back of a train. Dude was cool!

But yeah, big fan of Gambit :up:
 
I never thought he really added anything to the X-Men power-wise when he joined, and yes he is a bit of a walking cliche (and one that walks around in a god-awful pink shirt to boot). That said, I do like the actual character, he always had great lines when written well. And its easy to forget that the Gambit-Rogue relationship was pretty good before it got drawn out to death.
 
Gambit sucks. He sucks so bad that stupid trenchcoat is part of his costume. Boy! dont you know that leather coat phase fad has played out! oh but he cant take it off cause unlike other heroes who during that period could. his is part of his stupid costume!the throwing cards thing was cool for a bit then he started charging up and throwing basketballs and other stuff. Huh?!? Gambit unequivocally SUCKS and thats the name of that tune!!

I loved Gambit when the 90's X-Men cartoon came out but never really got into the character in the comics. I never was and never have been a big X-Men guy.
 
don't you think Gambit would benefit from being "mainline" marvel U'ed...he's just too tired with X stories.
 
I think he would benefit more from being dead for a decade or two. :o

I'm pretty sure his coat isn't supposed to be leather. Just, you know... just sayin'.
 
Mannnn Corp!Thats even worst! come on!Everybody knows if you are going to be styling.. your coat has to be leather!!Just ask shaft! how you going to come out sporting pleather or a wool trenchcoat to kick bad guy ass! boo!
...even a clone like Superboy knew that! when he sported the shaved hair doo with the glasses!:cwink:
 
He's an athletic person who hops around. A lether trench would weigh him down so I always figured it was a normal cloth trench.
 
wait a min! so a dude with a weighted bat cape can go jumping around and spinning, but a leather coat would bog my boy down?!?.come on guys. we cant go around using real world physics with dudes who shoot lasers out their eyes... even if i did read the encyclopedia of the marvel universe and *uncle stan made it sound like this ^*^%# was real!:cwink:

* and he did too which is why he's my uncle!
