Gambit and Rogue Appreciation

[Dantes617]

I think the man might've been obsessed with headbands!

Jim Lee understood that the forehead headband was a necessary evil in managing unruly hair. It also greatly enhanced the "cool" factor. Isn't that right, AC Slater?



Rambo or Gambo? The headband proves that he means business.

Gambit:

The Fabio look:




The Death look:




The "crimpers are a must-have for men in the ultimate universe" look:

Ultimate Gambit...
Why oh why did they kill him off and keep the Icicle?

Hmm, did I post this here? I don't think I posted this here.

I'm posting this here.

I go away on vacation and miss this. So funny. Love the halo with devil eyes.

I really loved how Asmus handeled Rogue and Remy in Gambit solo. I hope Asmus will be back for X books soon.

I'd like for Gambit and Rogue to get back together. ONE happy mutant couple--just one--is all I ask.

You've come to the right place. Best Marvel couple ever!

Comics bigwigs say a stable couple can't be interesting. I say seeing the adjustments a couple makes in the name of and for the sake of being together is the most interesting part. It's no work to break up for no reason; it's an easy way out. Then one or both characters spend at least a year moping and THAT is boring.

We all know Ol' Remy ain't the daddy, because Ol' Remy has ED ! It was all that smoking he did back in the day plus that crude brain surgery he got from Sinister. Unlike Rogue, he can't absorb someone's healing factor to deal with his "get up and go" problem! Not even Viagra can help Mr. Soggy Teabag ! :-p

This is completely uncalled for as in inappropriate and offensive.

[Spasticat]

Agreed, Neko. I can't believe I missed that- Not cool, mikeb. I appreciate your ability to reference just about any comic for the last thirty years, but if you hate Gambit that much then this definitely isn't the thread for you!

To Marvel you are asking for too much.

My favorite X couple. But after the way Rogue has done Gambit lately, I say give them some time apart and let Gambit move on. When Rogue see's him with others she may finally figure out "hey this guys a catch and they all know it". But yeah down the line I would like to see these two together again.

Define lately, lol. They've been officially broken up for at least three years (our time), I believe. The more time passes, the more I'm staying to think that space between them isn't going to fix anything; they need a good writer who wants to tell their story in a positive way. And then that writer has to get it past editorial

So, time for a new discussion to keep this thread alive! At what point would you say that they realized they were in love with each other? I think Rogue fell first, per the first Gambit series. I'm none too sure about Gambit, though...

For Gambit, not just attracted but in love? By the end of X-cutioner Song(UXM 297) when Rogue's dealing with her temporary blindness and for the once Gambit doesn't try to flirt or impress her - he empathises and merely gets her a blanket.

To me at that stage his fallen for her, but I don't think he realises yet, just how badly.

Rogue I'm not so sure of - maybe someone else has a 'moment' in mind.

I totally agree the rooftop was when i think when it became real for both of them. but i kinda hope it was the basketball bet game.

Oh there is some massive sexually love/hate tension during that basketball game. They totally start at that moment, which is followed by the non-date later.
