Gambit is one of my favorite X-men characters, so it was nice to delve into his backstory. Storm has been aged down and Remy is trying to help her regain her memories while also keeping her safe. They form a tentative trust throughout the story as they bump into people from Gambit's past. I appreciated the bold colors used in the artwork which I think is fitting for a character like Gambit and also made the story visually interesting. Every page felt like turning a corner into a new aspect of the story that added to the novelty of the plot. I had fun throughout and I'm looking forward to reading volume 2. By the end of this volume, Storm is more aware of what is happening and Storm and him seem a lot more comfortable with each other. I'm sure it will make for a continuously engaging story.
Moderate: Violence
