Gambit has always been a fan favorite from the x-men and I'm glad that he's getting more comic book face time.

Ultimately, what is the point of all of this tomfoolery? Asmus never reveals much about Remy's new partner, Joelle, or why she went through all this trouble on what was apparently a simple death wish.
