Nothing is more apparent, and more enjoyable, than when a comic book author truly loves the characters she's writing. Kelly Thompson clearly loves Rogue and Gambit, and these first six issues following the newlywed couple are an absolute joy to read. (It doesn't hurt that the art is also fantastic!)

Kelly Thompson has become such a reliable Marvel writer, I'm even willing to follow her into the morass which is the X-Men side of the Marvel Universe. And while I could have done without the extensive tour of the Shi'ar Empire and its dozens of minor characters, I very much enjoyed the fine mix of

humor and adventure with the sweet love between Gambit and Rogue. And it really helps that Oscar Bazaldua's art sprinkles the whole book with beautiful people.

I had more fun than I could have hoped and am eager to seek out Thompson's other Rogue and Gambit books.
