Official Description:

THE POWERS THAT BREAK! The Power Broker emerges from the shadows to make the deal of a lifetime! Selling was always risky business, but with an asset like Rogue in his Rolodex, the payoff is worth it. Only, Anna Marie isn’t one who can be controlled. And while Gambit knows her sweet side…the rest of her can be mighty mean. Rogue crosses a line she can’t uncross in a shocking twist that will have repercussions across all Krakoa!

Creative Team:

Writer – Stephanie Phillips

Artists – Carlos Gòmez

Cover Artist – Steve Morries

When we last saw our lovebirds, they were dealing with more than just a spat between spouses.  Powerbroker had control over Rogue, forcing her to attack her beloved Cajun (and take out all of her newlywed frustrations) with her fists rather than her words. Gambit knows Rogue packs a mean punch, but he is hoping that he can compel his sweet chère to break free of the mind control before they have to deal with that ‘til death do us part’ of their vows.

This issue featured stunning art from Carlos and a captivating story from Stephanie. I am loving what this powerhouse team has brought to life for my favorite mutant couple. After everything that they have been through, I love watching them continuously fight for their love. They have already overcome so much but we know that nothing has come easily for these two. Destiny is going to force Rogue to make some difficult decisions and I am eager to see if Rogue & Gambit will continue to defy the odds and make it through what Powerbroker, Destiny, and the universe still have in store for them both in this story arc and in X-Men: Hellfire Gala 2023.
