A + X #6 !!!
A + X #6 Gambit + Thing and Wolverine + Captain Marvel with
this month’s theme being Poker games and bluffing. Wolverine and Captain Marvel were in a poker
game showdown with each trying to get the upper hand in a battle of wills. They argue and then the Avengers Tower is
broken into by someone in a big suit of power armor calling itself the
End. Captain Marvel asks the End a “who
would win” question and the next thing you see is Hawkeye and Spider-Woman
running into the room to see the three not fighting but playing poker. The second story of The Thing and Gambit
starts with the Thing playing poker with the Yancy Street Gang (well three of
them anyway) before the game starts the Gang brings in a ringer who turns out
to be Gambit. Gambit and the Thing have
a history that the reader gets to see.
In the end it turns out The Thing and Gambit ran a scam and stole the
pot from the Yancy Street Gang. Both
stories were well told and entertaining – I was entertained.
