    Was he the third Summers brother in the end? I know he had some kind of energy powers and his eyes were fricked up

      Claremont made him one by cloning in X-Men: The End, but the mainline one was meant to be Adam-X until the Vulcan retcon.

      I think after Vulcan aka Gabriel Summer was introduce he's closer to just be a Mr Sinister clone.

        I wish he wasn't. It's suspicious why his adopted dad doesnt want him to know about who his parents are. I hope Sinister ends up being just a red herring, but I'm curious.

        I think the original intent was for him to be the good side of Sinister, who himself was also meant to be a construct created by a little kid in the first place.

        No, it means you cannot generate a novel idea to spur discussion so you use a template that not only gets ignored by people who know the answer and thinks you're lazy, thus proving from the get-go that there is no useful discussion to be had, but you're also contributing to producing useless threads that bump off the few good threads here and giving the sensible people here the impression that it's only bots posting here and not real people. The only way you could be more shit is if you constantly bump the thread to fake discussion like several other morons on this board who just want to turn Cinemaphile into /vg/ where they can repost the same fricking images over and over for the attention they probably don't get in real life. Except unlike the people who also fish for attention on the Internet, nobody knows your name and won't care about you if you die and even if they did, they would only remember you for shitting up this board like the Dragon Prince guy or Elenor guy or just "guy" himself.

    I knew in my heart and soul that Gambit would be the next X-character you’d pick. It was either going to be him, or Scalphunter: one of the most vaguely defined power sets ever marginally displayed in comics.

    This has to be the worst forced Cinemaphile meme. The only time it was even remotely funny is when someone asked what even are Cable's powers in response of a thread about Nate Grey

      Gambit is a lot stronger than Killer Queen honestly. Default Gambit too, not even counting New Sun

        Gambit's one of the stronger and more versatile xmen. Aside from his powers, he can repel some telepaths and do some basic hipnosis. And he can break in any place and fight without even using his mutant powers but on skill alone. He's not used properly because current writers are stupid and talentless.

    After I watched this scene, I wondered, could Gambit touch the earth and charge it to explode? It took him a minute to fully charge the Sentinel, so I imagine it would take years to fully charge the planet... but could he?

    • 1 week ago

      I think he'd die due to the effort. He's said he needs time to charge big stuff, so he'd have to be constantly releasing energy into the planet. When he blew up the big sentinel, he knew he was gonna die anyway.

        If he did a trickle charge he'd be ok. Like if he went hermit, and was charging his cabin and the ground around it in a 3 mile radius for when he was found, and had been doing it over the course of 5 years by walking around barefoot all the time...Gambit's frickin' broken and writers are too stupid and unimaginative to take advantage. He could ditch the boring playing cards gambler motif and LITERALLY throw hadokens by thrusting his hands to wards something and charging the air particles (microscopic, charge instantly) that move in the direction of his hands' thrust.

          They know the power is broken which is why the introduced the "Mr. Sinister surgically limited Gambit's control over his mutation" plot point

            He's not the only mutant whose powers can be controlled. Rogue, for example. In a way, Cyclops can't control them either. Sinister did to Gambit what the glasses and visor do for Scott.
            There is also the fact that Gambit was quite young and there was no one to train him as Xavier helped the original Xmen since they were teens.

    He turns potential energy into kinetic energy, which makes them either explode or release energy or to protect himself from telepaths. He uses that on himself to heal faster or move faster.
    He also has the power to make women move into his bed.
