Its something Gambit mentioned in today's Wolverine & The X-Men issue, that he could not trust the Avengers because there weren't any southerners on the team.

Monica Rambeau is from New Orleans. U.S. Agent from Georgia. Scott Lang is from Florida. Sharon Carter is from Virginia. I suspect there are others.

Sounds like there are quite a few, just none that are on any teams currently.

Um...no. Connecticut is decidedly not part of the South. Originally Posted by Zen-aku

That would confuse the hell out of New Jersey and Delaware, which are further south than it. Originally Posted by Zen-aku

Photon is from the South. So was Doctor Voodoo. I mean if you want to get technical they've had 5 or maybe more Avengers with ties to the South.
Also seeing as the heart of the MArvel Universe is in New York city are we shocked by this?Baltimore Ravens 2013 Super Bowl Champions

It was brought up in X-men: Legacy. It's clear the X-men are kind of losing it. Originally Posted by Jabare

I think it's safe to say that Gambit was talking out of his ass since they couldn't give him any deep reasons for wanting to fight the Avengers.
Holding out for a Peter/Miles team up.

The whole event is contrived what do you expect. And watch after its over they will be all buddy buddy. Just like the Avengers after Dark Reign ended. They acted like Civil War didn't even happen. That Ms. Marvel Tony Stark and others weren't beating down fellow heroes and putting them in jail. I know in comics writers can seemingly just erase grudges and hard feelings, but it does kind of irk me that we kind of swept some stuff under the rug here. I mean Civil War wasn't just some simple skirmish, but watch the Avengers and X-men will be best buds 2 years after this event Originally Posted by Kurolegacy

If by South, you mean Southern Haiti? Originally Posted by Jabare
