First Appearance: Gambit (Remy LeBeau)
Facsimile edition reprint of Uncanny X-Men #266, the first appearance of Gambit.
Gambit, born Remy LeBeau, is a Cajun mutant thief with the power to charge objects with kinetic energy, causing them to explode — most famously his trademark playing cards. Recruited into the X-Men by Storm, Gambit's charming manner and morally ambiguous past made him one of the most popular X-Men of the 1990s. His passionate, complicated romance with Rogue — two people who cannot touch — became one of Marvel's most beloved relationships.
