After many X-Men episodes, we finally do deep dive into everyone's favorite cajun: Gambit! We start by talking the debut issues for both Gambit and the twisted villain Mr. Sinister with whom Remy shares a dark secret. The secrets keep coming in the 90s aftermath of Age of Apocalypse that sees a fracture between Gambit and Rogue. For this week's alternate universe we look at a What If that sees Gambit, Rogue and Sinister battle it out to one heck of a twist ending! We end by looking at the the wedding of Colossus & Kitty, how it affected Remy & Rogue and wonder what is next for the couple on the current run of X-Men 97. It's a stacked deck!
