I've always loved Rogue and Gambit so when I saw that there was a little series with just them in it i was super excited! It was cute!

Before I begin. 1 star for being X-Men, 1 star for the cool artwork. I was actually reading volume one of this. It collects the first 5 issues of this series. I got 3 pages into the 2nd comic when I realized that this was not for me.
Rouge and Gambit were in a relationship and now they aren’t? I’m all for a good romance story but I couldn’t get sucked into this, I just really didn’t care at the end of the day I guess. Gambit came off as creepy and wouldn’t back off when Rouge told him too. He seemed problematic and I couldn’t get over the fact that he wouldn’t give her the space she needed.
Also, Kitty pride was extremely selfish and inconsiderate for doing what she did. I don’t like the fact that Rouge clearly wants her space and nobody seem to be listening. This series is a no from me dawg.

I enjoyed this for what it is, the set up for a larger story, and I look forward to reading the next.

I pick this one because I'm a big fan of Gambit. This is definitely a slow one, much base on the relationship between Rogue and Gambit, obviously, but it's still a decent average comic book!

I loved Kelly Thompson's take on Hawkeye (Kate Bishop), so I was thrilled when I saw she would also be writing Rogue & Gambit! I don't think these two get enough attention, and Thompson manages to cram a lot of their past and present into 5 issues. I actually learned a lot of new things about these two. They have a complicated history, but their love is fierce even when they're not together (or Rogue is smooching with Deadpool--ugh).
I would say this comic is romance with a twist! Rogue and Gambit go on a couple's retreat, but it's also their mission. Something hanky has been going on, so they're sent to figure out what it is. They were the best candidates, because their relationship was actually suffering. They needed outside assistance, but they had no idea what would happen once they arrived and started snooping around.
If you're looking for something short and engaging--this is it! These two are so much fun to read about, and you cannot help but fall in love with them, too. Their secret mission was unexpected, and I would love to know more about the baddie (don't want to be spoilery!) and their past. These are also some of my favorite illustrations, both inside and out. I honestly don't think I could pick a favorite cover... maybe #3... but just because we get to see a lot of the previous versions of Rogue and Gambit.

I haven't read X-Men comics in years. A friend said this had come out and I wanted to visit my favorite X-couple. It's a fun read, a fun trip down memory lane for this first issue. Looking forward to the rest in the series.
