Well, Taylor said there's "a character or two" missing, so there's probably someone else besides Gambit.
Stop taking it so personally maybe? So lets see... there are 7 characters Gentle, Laura and Gabby are all "kids" all within or under the NXM age group, none of which are over 18 yet or if they are, not far from it. The only word that may be out of place is "inexperienced". Just because a kid can, doesnt mean they should. This was the argument made against Cyclops and then Wolverine made for himself when he pushed X-23 off of X-Force. Trinary may not look young to you, but she does to me by how shes drawn. So... even if you subtract Trinary, you still have 3 out of 7... roughly half. Why would you think I was referring to Namor, Nightcrawler and Jean?

20 years old is still pretty young in my book. Well within the "kid" range. Can't even rent a car at 20, still in college, can't drink, cant be on South Beach past a certain time, most still live at home. And that's his opinion (lol it means more than anyone elses!), which I don't really agree with because then all those NXMers back at the mansion have aged out, when we know they havent. Last I checked Laura was about the same age as Hellion, Mercury, Dust, Surge etc... yet they are all still students? While Quintin Quire just graduated a couple years ago our time, which is like months for them. Maybe at most a year if you take into account the time jump following Secret Wars... But for the sake of not arguing, OK Laura and Gentle are 20... Not exactly long in the tooth. I can understand Laura's presence but not when compounded by the others. Not when there are other X-Men to take into battle against "one of the worst enemies". Just my opinion.
