    Ok, you have my attention!

    This is funny and ties in well with GameWorld. Hopefully this issue has more of these character moments in general and a few more Romy panels in particular.

    Wait, isn't Black Cat a full-on villain now or something? And Rhino?

    That aside, looks pretty interesting.
    Does it need doing?
    Yes.
    Then it will be done.

    Black Cat’s been back on the hero’s side for a couple years now (though still does her thieving but she’s always done that). Rhino on the other hand, that’s a strange one considering he went back to villainy after he thought Spider-Man abandoned him to be captured by Taskmaster and Black Ant for Hunted in Amazing Spider-Man and is currently in the Sinister Six in Sinister War.

    Wow this is so good. Gambit is adorable and the art is outstanding. Cordyceps is an absolute trip and here comes another threat lol!

    Black Cat has been stealing from heroes for a while currently and now is going bigger.I don't think she's a hero by any means atm.
    Rhino is also a villain rn.

    I don't think Gerry communicated or even read or asked about them, just used them because he felt like it.

    One misses the days when we had actual co-ordination between bigger titles.

    I don’t know about Black Cat, but Duggan is definitely aware of Rhino’s current villain status. A couple months ago he wrote Conan the Barbarian teaming up with Rhino to rob a bank and beat up Spider-man.

    Oh, thanks for the update. I thought there was some storyline where Black Cat was making a move in the criminal underworld or something?

    Either way, yeah, the Rhino thing still doesn't make sense.

    So I wasn't imagining things!

    Yeah, where is the editorial team on this one?

    Black Cat and Gambit are just displaying solidarity, proving that there is indeed honor amongst thieves. As for Rhino, eh, I don’t see his presence as that big of a deal, he just robs banks and stuff, insignificant compared to the X-men’s current villains

    Why would Gambit care if he is playing cards with a possible thief?

    I mean we can go back to the days when characters basically wore white hats or black hats and the two never mingled other then in battle, but should that be something to strive for?

    No, she’s still riding the line.

    This is awesome. I love seeing the mutants in street clothes, interacting with other Marvel characters and the dialogue is great. Can't wait for next week. This, along with the unlettered panels we saw earlier, have me excited for this issue.

    Amazing cover art though my eyes sort of fixate on the X perhaps given its placement in a way it doesn’t with the other version.

    Cute preview. Gambit doing inappropriate activities inside the new headquarters should become a reoccurring gag (and Rogue should join in occasionally )
