THE POWERS THAT BREAK! The Power Broker emerges from the shadows to make the deal of a lifetime!

Rated T+
This issue featured stunning art from Carlos and a captivating story from Stephanie. I am loving what this powerhouse team has brought to life for my favorite mutant couple.After everything that they have been through, I love watching them continuously fight for their love.They have already overcome so much but we know that nothing has come easily for these two.Destiny is going to force Rogue to make some difficult decisions and I am eager to see if Rogue & Gambit will continue to defy the odds and make it through what Powerbroker, Destiny, and the universe still have in store for them both in this story arc and inX-Men: Hellfire Gala 2023.

Rogue & Gambit #5 is a comic book that X-Men fans do not want to miss out on. There is a major decision that happens in this issue that will have a direct impact to Fall of X. Beyond that, this issue does a great job at wrapping up a fun series that once again showcases what makes Rogue and Gambit great characters. If you didn't pick up the individual issues make sure to pick up this series by Stephanie Phillips and Carlos Gomez when it comes out in trade format. Read Full Review
Rogue & Gambit's final issue contains several high points for the series. The rest of the issue wraps up a run-of-the-mill superhero story in predictable and familiar ways, except for Rogue's dealings with Destiny. Read Full Review
With the power of hindsight, I know why this series is important. It was fun enough.
Count the number of "Hrn!"s in the dialogue. (And throw in Destiny's "hrm" for good measure.)
