1) You have said before that the Gambit heritage line from “Blood of Apocalypse” would probably be explored this year. Is that still in the works?

It is, yeah. But I don't know how far we'll move that along in the second arc, which is where Gambit comes back into play. It might have to wait a little longer before you get a clear answer.


Quote:
2) With Gambit having a role in “Legacy,” are there any plans to use Courier, Fontanelle or Belladonna?

Sadly, no. I was thinking at one stage about a plotline that would have brought Fontanelle in, but it opened some cans of worms that I couldn't deal with in the framework I was trying to set up. We will be seeing someone very closely associated with her, though.


Quote:
5) The “Messiah CompleX” crossover payoffs on the plotlines including Mystique, Rogue and Gambit were some of my favorite moments in the story. Are you generally pleased with the outcome of that aspect of the story? Will Rogue assume the mantle of leadership again in the near future?

I'm pleased that we got such a big stage, as it were, for the climax of those story elements – we'd spent a lot of time and thought in setting them up. I feel bad that Rogue was off the table for such a lot of the big action, because I know a lot of Rogue fans took that hard.

There are some more ramifications to be played out, and I'm weaving them into ‘Legacy.’ After that, look for Rogue to be in the spotlight again. Yeah, I know, I'm ducking the "leadership" part of that question – it's tied up with some other things that I can't talk about yet..


***************

So.... thats why they're keeping the legacy name. It'll continue to be about legacies and pasts into the second arc and probably the third. Gambit's "noble heritage" will be explored. Thats one serious can of worms that they're opening up IMO. Should be interesting to say the least.

So long as he's getting some spotlight I am happy! Although I am disappointed that they are continuing to side-step the BOA stuff and why he truely went over? To make it as part of Mystiques plan to save Rogue would have been best, to say 'yeah....she told him a bit about the baby and Rogue and Sinister way back when she joined the X-Men and Gambit was in on the whole thing'....I'd love that!
But I'm peeved that his 'cure' from being Deathbit was also a quick-fix through Sinister as we all pretty much predicted. Although at least it put him back in the big picture quicker. But now that means...if Sinny isn't really dead....that Gambit now owes him bigtime!

That looks like it could be interesting. Some people aren't going to be happy with the heritage thing being explored, but at least we get to see some Remy.

I wish he'd say a bit more about him, rather than just about Rogue though, in some of the parts. It always makes me slightly worried.

I also hope that the whole Deathbit fix gets a little more explanation, but I'm not going to hold my breath.

Front paged, with thanks.

Do you  think his heritage IS going to be traced to Sinister somehow? I know rumours have been flying for years about them having a connection either through blood or Sinister 'creating' Gambit.....?

I hope not cos I'd like something totally unexpected thrown in the mix but it seems a coincidence that Sinny and Gambit have been together this past arc and his 'death' could throw up new stuff for Remy!

I'm hoping, probably in vain, that it has something to do with Jean-Luc and the thieves. Especially since the 2nd arc is supposed to be about 'fathers and sons'.

Yeah.

It'll probably be Sinister.

It always worried me when they did X-Men: The End cos although considered 'alternate' universe it was also possible-future-of-current universe and therefore the Sinister connection from that may have stuck in the writers heads!
