Gambit (Marvel NOW!)

review 1: A cracking ending that makes me wish this wasn't the end. Despite the strong finish and appealing artwork, it seems that no one has quite worked out how to make Gambit function well as a leading character. Anti-heroes like Gambit fit into a supporting role much more nicely and I hope the cancellation of yet another Gambit-heavy series does not put Marvel higher ups off the idea of utilising Gambit to support other characters' stories in future.
review 2: This was a fine wrap up to an excellent Gambit solo series. It seemed like it would take Gambit in an interesting new direction, before coming back to a comfortable place for him. It does a good job of continuing a run of international crime stories, while bringing in fun elements from various places (Lots of m... moreagic with Pete Wisdom and MI13, and an amusing heist from Tony Stark spring to mind). These three volumes are the best set of Gambit stories I have ever read, which tie him in to the rest of the Marvel universe in his own unique way. I hope that these story elements get used in the future, because there is a lot here that would make for more great stories. less
