91 - Gambit, On Trial Once Again - a podcast by Trev & Joe

After talking about doing this episode since way back when we first started this show, the recent release of (and critical and fan acclaim for) Kelly Thompson's "Mr and Mrs X" series has finally given us the perfect time to finally take an in-depth look at one of its stars, the ragin' Cajun himself - Remy LeBeau, otherwise known as Gambit! Undeniably one of the most popular and well-known X-Men characters of the modern era, Gambit also has his fair share of haters and detractors. Where we do we fall? Do we still consider Gambit a worthy addition to the X-Universe, or an embarrassing throwback to a different, "edgier" era of comics? What do we think of his powers, backstory, and overall character traits? Do we believe he has lived up to his early potential? Tune in to hear these questions and more discussed as we delve into Channing Tatum's favorite X-Man.

But first, we ponder the potential of a future X-Men theme park (possibly for the second time), sharing our proposals for mutant themed rides and attractions. We also discuss the chances of re-casting the X-Men for the MCU. And, in another installment of "Mutant Match-Up," an original New Mutant with a unique (though often mocked) power takes on a famous X-Men daughter and on-again/off-again X-Men member, in a battle for the honor of protecting YOU. All this, and more!
