He would. That guy is great. Would love to see Gambit by Jorge Jimenez as well.
I agree. Especially regarding the Scott-Jean-Maddie stuff, which took too much away, then the later action scenes. We don't get much of him and this was supposed to be his centric episode. But yes, I also love that people are loving him now, even the haters concede he was great this ep. And I also hope this helps the character in general in the long run. I'm here for the Remyssance, is what I'm saying.

Forbes: X-Men 97’ Episode 5 Cements It As One Of The Best Marvel Projects, Ever

But yeah, what an episode. This is easily the best Marvel project since Endgame, and this specific Gambit moment reminded me of the epic Loki finale. It may have been better. I can’t believe how good this series is.
I'm never been more prouder to be a Gambit fan when this episode aired.

edit:
As for Gambit being shady, I was recently reading some early 90s X-Men, mostly for Sabretooth. Anyway, he and Gambit had a history. They were both after the same gem. Remy stole it from this girl in love with him, then also let Sabretooth kill her when Victor gave him the choice of who to kill, the girl or his thief brother. The dying woman also confesses she would have just given the gem to Gambit. So he stole it, broke her heart, then sorta got her killed.
It's not something he's proud of but he was young, like he says. And Evo Gambit is also young.

The pants neeed a lil Gambit magic but this picture is nice. I even think that dark red chestplate kinda slays
Yeah, it's a great issue. I like Gambit being a bit shady, but when it comes to cartoons, I prefer him as an X-man on the team because he would automatically get more screen time. I just find it interesting they decided to not put him on the team on both Evo and WATX or cameo him as an X-men ally. He's not a traditional X-men villain in the 616 comics (Deathbit excluded), so it's an interesting choice.
I still can't believe the events of episode 5 happened. All of the good press is just awesome to hear/read.

Gambit. Rogue. Repeat.
Episode 5 of X-Men 97 was fantastic! Love that this show was trending(might still be.) I've watched so many reaction videos! Such a good showing for our man main.
X-Men: Evolution is on Disney Plus. Could not get into that show when I was younger(I really tried) but watched it all last year. It's alright!
