I don't have this, I know it. But I will look for it now. Because it at least appeals to me. :)

If I remember correctly it was a special issue of All new X-men Monster Unleashed feat. Gambit and it was a really cool self contained story.

I'd love to see a post mortem interview with Asmus about the series. We got a shallow exit piece but nothing really in depth. Not sure if Marvel makes creators sign a NDA but often once the books end they don't talk too much about it.


As for the petition... I'm signing anything without getting more info about the script lol
Rogue being flung vagina-first at the first male that pops up on her radar isn't how I'd define "romance," but Marvel must be using a different dictionary than me.- NicoPony

It slays me, my shop does not order a lot of the collected stuff. The last couple I bought because of Gambit, there was literally only one on the shelf.

I hope I have them all by now. LOL

Asmus had the right voice for Gambit, very much in tune with Nicieza, level-headed, charming, but not over-the-top and not a parody. My only criticism is that I felt some of his stories lacked a bit of drive, I remember he led in with a very generic villain (Cich?) I forgot his name, I did not like him, though Tombstone was very good when he popped up. Some really good parts, some no so great, the fairy story was awful, but I loved the issue where Joelle walked into a supervillain's gathering to look for Tombstone, my favourite issue.

 AiPT!: Robert Secundus (@RobertSecundus) said that it seems like not just the X-Line, not just comics, but pop culture generally is finally willing to tell stories again about couples beyond the exhausting (and exhausted) will they/won’t they or get together/break up cycles. Rogue and Gambit getting married is just one example. What do you think motivated this shift?

 

 
Jordan: Honestly, I think it all depends on how it’s done. I think the reason everyone has been so shy to answer those “will they/won’t they”s with a hearty “they will” is because doing that has ruined a lot of stories, and it’s a hard bell to un-ring. Personally, I think hooking up Mulder and Scully is where The X-Files went from being a show I loved to being one I was constantly disappointed by, and when they brought the series back, their relationship hung over everything in a way that really turned me off to it. That being said…in X-Men, I think there is a lot lower stakes on each individual relationship, though, because none of them are THE relationship the whole thing hangs on. Rogue and Gambit had a lot of heat back in the day, but then for many years they were not a thing. Now, they are back together and married, and I think we have that leeway to try that with them because they are not the lynchpin of the line, we can get a little experimental.
