Wolverine and Captain Marvel defend Avengers' Tower in a story by Peter David (X-FACTOR) and Giuseppe Camuncoli (AMAZING SPIDER-MAN)! Gambit and Thing play the most dangerous game-poker with the Yancy Street Gang in a story by Mike Costa (Cobra) and Stefano Caselli (AMAZING SPIDER-MAN)!
Stefano Caselli draws a ridiculously good Gambit, with tousled hair and modelesque features " Marvel, let Caselli draw the book next, he'd kill on it! But for now, A+X #6 will have to suffice " it may be this week's perfect read. Read Full Review
After an early string of issues wherein only one of the two tales managed to live up to the premise, this is the third issue in a row where both segments are worth the price of admission.

The second story, although not nearly as entertaining, also features two heroes winding up at a poker game as the Yancy Street friends of Ben Grimm invite Gambit, over for the weekly poker game. There's some okay back-and-forth between the characters and late twist, but it's the less interesting of the two stories. Worth a look. Read Full Review
"A+X" #6 is another example of the highs and lows of this title. Realistically, it's the gamble of any anthology as the overall quality varies, some stories will be good and some won't hit the spot. "A+X" has proven itself a stable concept with some superb stories coming through one of which is this issue's Wolverine/Captain Marvel team up. Seeing two Avengers bond strangely over poker is a lot of fun and is the sort of thing to be remembered. Read Full Review
Interesting that both stories this issue are just two characters sitting around playing cards. I liked the Gambit and Thing story by Mike Costa just a little bit more than I liked the Captain Marvel and Wolverine story by Peter David. Definitely better Comics out there but a kid series of your trying to get a kid into comics or if your trying to get into marvel yourself
