Solid black with a colorful scarf. I can’t get over how Clay Man drew him in his solo series for the first few issues 10/10

This look was so underrated. Loved it

Pink and only pink. I will accept mauve if I can’t have pink.

“But he’s a thief, he can’t wear pink with shiny metal boots!” they may cry.

No, he can. He’s just THAT GOOD. Imagine if he didn’t wear bright pink and metal boots? He’d be unstoppable. He’d be bored from the lack of effort it would take to get away with it.

Now - headsock or no headsock, that is the question.

Pink is my favorite. I am okay with black at times though. Not the biggest fan of the purple looks.

No headsock just because I'm tired of artists using it as a crutch to make him more easily identifiable. I still shudder at the thought of that one panel of him playing electric guitar outside in a t-shirt and a headsock.

Hahaha! You are so right!

But then I’ve seen some pinup Gambit fan art recently that has him wearing not much other than the head sock and that will never not be funny to me.

That is completely fair

That is completely fair

Lol.

For me the big NO is the yellow one . It's not a color for him, But the X-Factor one is not bad.

these are ugly as hell

We've fallen to the 3rd page! We're slipping.
Favourite Gambit uniform colour? Pink, Purple, or solid black?

The Maurauders era nailed it (IMHO):

His original is forever the best.
It's nice to see him rocking in in Calremont's mini, KT's Cap Marvel and now in Dark X-Men where he was portrayed the best.

With X-Men 97 in 2024 and probably delayed to 2025 Tatum's cameo in Deadpool I think Remy will continue to rock 90s costume in future.

That is completely fair

Ah yes, that is the image I was looking for! There is another recently circulating, but it is very… crotch-forward, shall we say. I love these fan-artists. They really make me smile. Having Gambit be over-the-top flamboyant is perfectly on-brand.

I don’t know that I liked the All New Xfactor suit, but I did like the artist and how grungy/hot he drew Remy. So yellow is forgiven.

Same here. Carmine Di Giandomenico is certainly underrated (IMHO):

[anyajenkins]

He is an underrated artist.

Yes, that series wasn’t the best, but that was a good look.

[Gripstir]

For me the costume is about the body frame and porportions and peacocking colors. You can change it up but I just like his costumes that show his sleek but built 6'1 physique well

Also I was hearing that Chris Potter is not voicing Gambit in Xmen 97 but will be in the show. Not sure if I knew about it before and forgot or not but does anyone have any info on this and why someone else is voicing Gambit in a show built on the nostalgia of the past?
