Looking at those pictures it's kinda like that whole Horseman of Apocalypse thing was just a bad nightmare. although that first pic with him at the wheel has a certain "Driving Mrs Daisy" feel.

You know, I always said Gambit looked like Morgan Freeman.

 

[The Infernal]

I liked Marrow myself. I loved how she stood up to Wolverine like that. I liked her sass.

I think she got screwed over when they reintroduced her in Weapon X and turned her back into a terrorist. Wasn't much chance of redemption after that I thought.

Also, who's the girl in the painting behind Professor X in the first pic?

 

[squeekness]

She doesn't look familiar to me at all....

 

[cardslinger]

She looks like one of the "hounds" that were in Gambit's first appearance, based on what she is wearing. I could be wrong.

Legacy 212 previews are out and heavily feature Gambit.

[The Infernal]

Nice. Definitely looking forward to it.

 

[squeekness]

Yeah, the pages are so much sweeter with the words on them. I like how Gambit came off more like his old sassy self and can't wait for this myself.

 

[IRON_Lad]

can't wait. When's it coming out?

Agreed.

I collected this Legacy series in hopes that Gambit would get some time in the spotlight. Those preview pages look freaking awesome.

 

[squeekness]

can't wait. When's it coming out?

Next wednesday, the 28th.

 

[The Infernal]

Just read the previous Legacy issue. The last page makes it all worth it.

So a bit of a one issue Gambit/Prof. X teamup...

Should be fun. Carey seems plenty capable of handling Gambit as long as Rogue's not around.

Shame that this issue might be the last we see of the cajun for quite awhile, though. From what Carey's said, it sounds like 2008 is going to be Xavier with a different guest star or three in each arc... Which means after next month Gambit will fade away for awhile. Again.

I wish they'd put him somewhere on a more permanent basis. Even if it's in a smaller book. He doesn't need to be on an X-team. Mutants can hang out with other heroes too, you know.

 

[squeekness]

Yeah, I agree. I want to see Remy all the time, not just once or twice a year.

 

[The Infernal]

Hopefully he gets a regular slot somewhere.

 

[tank girl]

hes already a regular ****..oh,slot,yeah

 

[The Infernal]

I believe the term is man-ho.

 

[LadyVader]

I bet he'll be in more books by the time Wolverine premieres next year and if the Gambit role is good in that movie and interest in the character picks up we'll see even more of him I bet.

 

[squeekness]

I certainly hope so.

 

[K4tzm4n]

So as usual, Gambit ends up getting screwed over at the end. *sigh*

 

[squeekness]

What do you mean? I thought he was done well enough in this latest issue of Legacy.... ?

 

[LadyVader]

I think he means in the long term

 

[K4tzm4n]

He was indeed well done...Just...the end. Also, it appears Gambit isn't capable of defeating a few humans. The first time he's saved by the professor and the second time, well, they left it open ended...With the assumption he's severely beaten. Key word: assumption. Let's hope he isnt.

 

[Canemacar]

They released another of the varient covers for Uncanny 500. Look who's on it:

Not only on it...But right in the front.
