[Hi-Fi]

OK, I don't really like them together, but this cover is HOT!!!

[Optic Rage!]

It's a nice cover! I love that costume on Rogue.

But oh jeez....Rogue & Gambit.

[Pach!]

Vámpira deserves better! It is similar to the Choi cover of.. 204 I think? Vic create a thread with all the rogue/gambit covers and let us choose who captured them the best? (personally I would go for Larroca's Death Gambit and dying Rogue as we all know that Gambit will be the death of Rogue)

[Optic Rage!]

Imagine if we had interiores like this.

[Jake V]

Is that an intentional homage to Choi's cover?

If so, isn't it a little early to be homaging covers from 20 issues ago?

[FieryCajunforPolaris]

It's a nice cover! I love that costume on Rogue.

But oh jeez....Rogue & Gambit.

How disgusting! Rogue looks much older there... When is Marvel gonna stop ruining Gambit's character to please Rogue Fans! He is a Cajun he deserves better treament than this, unhinge Rogue and Gambit before his character further suffers! :mad:

yeah srsly (sorry vic)

[$5 Milkshake]

GAMBIT deserves better than some crazy lady squatting in a derelict bar.



And yeah, that cover is hot. Is that Bermejo? Looks awesome, which is a Lee Bermejo staple.

Oh, so its just the most recent in a long line of boring ideas.

The ultimate visual metaphor.

Nice cover, hopefully its more representative than reflecting an actual scene from the book.

[Hi-Fi]

Oh, so its just the most recent in a long line of boring ideas.
Oh, go discuss Smallville in the TV Board.

[Jake V]

Oh, go discuss Smallville in the TV Board.

Its more fun to make Rouge fans cry.

[Raptor]

There aren't two ace of diamonds in a 52 card deck.

Yay more Gambit. Just wish they'd stop trying to pair those two up. Gambit needs to get over her and become self reliant again. He's boring pining over her.

[Come To Deathstrike]

I like Gambit.

[$5 Milkshake]

I like Gambit.

Me too!

Or I did anyways. I want to again!

[timbox]

I like Rogue and really hope to see her in action again soon. She needs some fire.

Gambit is boring.

I think one is a spade.
But it's red because of his powers.

[Stephen Moreno]

I think the X-Men #24 cover is what I think of when I think of Gambit and Rogue.

[Jake V]

I think the X-Men #24 cover is what I think of when I think of Gambit and Rogue.

Thats interesting. When I think of Gambit and Rogue, I think of sleeping.

[Pixie_Solanas]

Wow, haven't seen that one done in like a few months. We were past due another Gambit/Rogue cover.

Zzzzzz.

[Stephen Moreno]

Thats interesting. When I think of Gambit and Rogue, I think of sleeping.

Well my favorite Rogue arc was from X-Men #200 to X-Men #207. She was awesome.

[caney]

I'd kiss the Gambit on that cover. And I wouldn't even suck away his life-force or whatever. Move over Rogue!

well maybe there'd be some sucking involved...

[Hi-Fi]

Well my favorite Rogue arc was from X-Men #200 to X-Men #207. She was awesome.
My favorite Jean arc is still going on. It started in New X-Men #150.

[Prodigy55]

You guys are mean.
This cover is nice.
And it is pretty.

[Jake V]

You guys are mean.
This cover is nice.
And it is pretty.

Which one?

They all look the same.

[Prodigy55]

Which one?

They all look the same.

X-men Legacy 224.
And they are all pretty.

[sneggz]

So... is this the issue where Rogue finally learns control of her power?

[Stephen Moreno]

My favorite Jean arc is still going on. It started in New X-Men #150.

You win. I yield.

[We R. Venom]

I like Rogue and really hope to see her in action again soon. She needs some fire.

Gambit is boring.

Speaking of fire, does she still have Sunfire's powers?

[Optic Rage!]

Speaking of fire, does she still have Sunfire's powers?

No, she reset her powers during Messiah Complex.

[caney]

So what's with the destroyed city-scape in the background? It's similar to the cover for #223. Poor Australia...

[CE_Rap]

As skillfully as the cover was handled---the idea is VERY weak. Sadly, this is just a rehash of covers----(I think Hi-Fi showed a few) where they are together in some romantic pose bleh-bleh-bleh.

Great skill was put into it, Bermejo is stupid talented, no question---but the idea has zero originality. How 'bout one where one where you see her cape drapped on the floor in darkness and 2 cards (ace of spades/queen of hearts) fluttering down onto it. How 'bout one where a Gambit's shrouded in darkness and he's got Rogue in a choke hold with his charged staff---it's light giving his silhouette shape and showing her fearful expression.

---how 'bout one where they're both GERBILS---whatever---just please, no more covers like this. I honestly felt the same way about Choi's recent X-Men Rogue/Gambit cover too (and I also think he's great)

[doctortherift]

They should redo the cover with Gambit tweaking/charging Rogue's nipples as he did with Sebastian Shaw earlier in the run of "Legacy."

[Prodigy55]

I would like to see Rogue and Gambit as cats.
Or ferrets.

[Wind Rider]

Nice cover art! Even though Rogue's face seems a little off to me...

I loved Gambit and Rogue when they were still trying to make it work. He was the ladies man with the mysterious past and the one woman he wanted, he couldn't really touch... it was the cutest and I rooted for them the whole time. Just because of that time, I'll always want to see them together. Hey, I'm a hopeless romantic... *sigh*

[timbox]

So what's with the destroyed city-scape in the background? It's similar to the cover for #223. Poor Australia...

It was like that when she got there.

[Sugarbombz]

I don't really like anything about this cover. I usually like Lee's covers but not this time.

[DeniseXfrost]

Rogue looks old.

[Bingo!]

Haters, be prepared for a reckoning.

[Kid Icarus]

I just love that Remy charges up his cards whenever he his kissin Rogue.
I like to pretend that his charged up cards are an extention of his charged up lil remy. It's a metaphor, but fun!

[Canemacar]

Same old, same old. no one cares anymore.

[Canemacar]

double post

[Affinity]

I'd like Rogue to straddle Gambit on a cover.

[Home made ectoplasm]

I'd like Rogue to straddle Gambit on a cover.

lol.

Sorry for not getting excited Hi-Fi, but THIS is the standard I expect from Rogue covers. She deserves it.

http://goodcomics.comicbookresources.com/wp-content/uploads/2006/07/XMEN192COVER_400.jpg

[soulkiller]

That's a hot cover. Looks like he ripped it off of a romance novel tho. :tongue:

And it's getting pretty much the reaction I'd expect.

[cable guy]

Nice cover

[caney]

It was like that when she got there.

There was a huge fault line and an large city leveled?

[timbox]

There was a huge fault line and an large city leveled?

I blame Bishop’s rowdy relatives.

[caney]

I blame Bishop’s rowdy relatives.

LOL. I'm gonna take the big fault line to mean Avalanche has gone to Australia to pull his revived lover Pyro out the ground. It's the only thing that makes sense.

[MartinRedmond]

That cover and the Andy Kubert one are the best because they don't go out of their way to show her breasts even though they're supposed to be pointed at Gambit.

[Kid Seven]

I think someone above said this, but it looks a bit too "romance cover" to me. A little too much of a visual polish.

[streator]

i like choi's cover for 204 better.

[prince_nightcrawler]

I remember Rogue in the rain in Seattle. I liked that.

I like the cover. I like the old school couples.

[greenshoes713]

In the XML#223 cover Xavier is getting choked by Danger and like in this cover Rogue and Gambit are making out totally ignoring Xavier, like WTF?

[From Beyond]

I just want to know what the plan is for after this Xavier run.....:confused:

[tornshattered]

It'll either be Rogue, Remy and Xavs, or Rogue solo.

I like Gamgue, but I also like Rosef. Either one of them is meant for her. Since Joseph is dead(sob), Remy is all we have. I like Gambit and I don't care if you don't like him. He is the best X-Man alive.

[Petes Pants]

Am I allowed to respond to this?

[tornshattered]

Am I allowed to respond to this?

Will you stop mocking me? It is very insensitive.

[Petes Pants]

No, I was talking to Hi-Fi.

He gets sensitive when people talk about liking Rogue and Gambit together.

[tornshattered]

riiiiight

.

[Petes Pants]

It's a known fact.

[Stephen Moreno]

Will you stop mocking me? It is very insensitive.

Can I respond to this one? I have a comment I would like to make.

[tornshattered]

You know what??? I don't care if you respond or not. I don't care, if you thought my post in the XF thread was a good excuse for you to mock some guy just because he didn't want his opinion about killing babies to be discussed. I don't care what you think of me and I certainly don't care about you.

[Pach!]

It was just funny that you'd post an opinion you did not want discussed at a forum and not like your diary or something more personal.

[Kid Seven]

My favorite images of Rogue and Gambit remain those Art Nouveau-inspired posters that Quesada did in the mid 90's. They were a pair of posters that went together. Beautiful things.

[tornshattered]

It was just funny that you'd post an opinion you did not want discussed at a forum and not like your diary or something more personal.

I don't care. Okay? I just wanted to be heard. Is that so hard?

[Sugarbombz]

Whose posts are we not to respond to?

[tornshattered]

Whose posts are we not to respond to?

apparently mine, since I expressed my opinion about killing babies in X-Factor(and I said I'm dropping the book) and when I didn't want mud to be trown in my face, I said "do not respond to this post".

Now everyone finds it funny to mock me.

[Foon4000]

These must sell really well. The colours on this one are a bit blegh though. I do like that all these covers have charged cards as a stand in for male arousal. How very coy.

[Sugarbombz]

My apologies.

I will have conversation with you. :smile:

As long as you like Cipher, then no.

[tornshattered]

By Cipher, do you mean Doug? Or the girl with the "wiry" hair? :smile:

The retcon princess! Although I dislike that part about her.

But anyway I was just kidding! Trying to lighten the mood.

I've got to go now though! Bye!

cya. :biggrin: thanks. The mood really did lighten! Well, I better get back to to writing my interview(creating, actually).

[Petes Pants]

tornshattered, I suggest you OWN IT.

Have fun with it.

It is funny because you overreacted like someone had just killed your baby. You overreact to a lot of things it seems, to Claremont's writing, to anyone who dare say something not positive about Polaris and to PAD's great #39 twist. It's hilarious.

LOL! can i please nominate this for post of the day?

[Jellobay]

I'm not a big Rogue/Gambit fan. I think both characters are better when they don't have the weepy love story, I can never kiss you stuff.

[Petes Pants]

How would you feel about them if they were able to kiss?

The obstacle's gone and they're free to be together. Would they be ok then?

[Jellobay]

That might be better. Then they could stop that tired story line. I guess it would depend on who wrote them.

[AcesX1X]

That might be better. Then they could stop that tired story line. I guess it would depend on who wrote them.

CC tried this already. please refer to your final copies of x-treme x-men. fan outcry was embarrassing, however.

CC had to use sage to fix the situation (as usual).

[Red Lotus]

How would you feel about them if they were able to kiss?

The obstacle's gone and they're free to be together. Would they be ok then?

No. Because then they would be all about how Gambit past wont let him open up to Rogue.

[Petes Pants]

No. Because then they would be all about how Gambit past wont let him open up to Rogue.

But what if Gambit comes clean about everything and she can accept all of it?

Can't they be happy then?

[Hi-Fi]

I've never felt more like Rogue than I've been these past few days.

I hope she finds a way.

[Naira K]

Aaaawwww what's wrong with you people? Yeah, I agree, characters are interesting enough without each other, but don't you all like a little fluffy romance we haven't seen in a long time?! I was looking through old Rogue&Gambit panels and I just couldn't help myself loving it. Waaay before X-treme. Waaaay before Milligan.
ROGUE: Get outta here, Remy! While you can! Don't throw your life away.
GAMBIT: Girl, don' you ever listen? Wit'out you, I don't have much of a life!
I was just aaaawwwing at this one. And this Legacy cover is amazing! Spookier that #204, but still... It's so dark AND sweet, this is the whole point of their relationship!!!
Umm... yeah. Sorry, got emotional.

[Shaid O Gray]

I've never felt more like Rogue than I've been these past few days.

I hope she finds a way.

Me too. Her controlling her power is the one thing we haven't seen yet. Who knows...

Say though, is it me or is every thread you create assaulted by a regiment of trolls? What happened to these boards?

It's in vogue to kick the Romy ship. personally I can go either way, keep them together, split them up... it all depends on how it's written and where they're going with it. And if some people prefer to see it end, I can see that. But I think some are under the impression they gain some automatic 'cool' factor by constantly dissing at the top of their lungs. Like they think it makes them 'counter mainstream' or something. Who knows... Either that or it's just the standard troll crap.

[Shaid O Gray]

Btw, I love how this image was the main one for the article on CBR, but there's not a single word said IN the article about Legacy.....oy.
