Nightcrawler doing double duty, a brand new character, Namor and two Wolverine clones... I don't get this roster. This book better be good.
I think a roster that features the real Jean, Laura, Namor, Kurt, and Remy is more that formidable and I can't wait to read it. And then the interactions with Gabby? Can't wait for those.
It's not the characters themselves that irk me it's the assemble braced against how many known and better acquainted characters there are that could have been paired with Jean opposed to this. I'm not planning to snub the book but c'mon. This was a hard sell for me if they didn't announce Gambit. If they would have made this a modified version of the gold team she was on in the 90s or even X-factor in the 80s, I think the book would have a lot more hype around it. Marvel is trying something new to get fans on board but I don't think they understood it's not the needing something new more than something different and less seen than seen than the Wolverine(s) O5, Rachel, Storm, Colossus, Nightcrawler and Kitty.
I am excited for Gambit in RED and that he is reunited with X-23.Will see what Taylor has planned for Cajun.
I would not be opposed to him and Jean getting it on either. Haha
Oh man, the expressions on Wolvie's and Cyke's (whenever he gets resurrected) faces when they find out would be worth it alone haha
What won’t be worth it will be the Cyclops and Wolverine fans wishing for Gambit’s death and potentially bullying us in the event that that does happen.
