10 Best Comic Book Moments Of 2018
7. Rogue And Gambit Get Married
2018 has been a year of engagements and marriages. X-Men Gold #30 was advertised with the "wedding of the century" tag because of course it was. Finally, fans were going to see the decades' worth of relationship, both good and bad, between Colossus and Kitty Pryde being immortalised in holy matrimony.
Except, as this was also the year of women with cat-based names leaving their significant other at the altar, it didn't happen. Despite Storm's platitudes, it was not an easy pill to swallow.
That is until the moment that Gambit shrugs, says that they've got everything for a wedding and so he and Rogue should tie the knot right then and there. Not wasting the free stuff, they did! It's a spur of the moment thing that actually became a high point for the characters and even got the idea of another Kitty-Colossus "will they, won't they" romance off the reader's mind, and span-off into the Mr. and Mrs. X comic series, written by Kelly Thompson.
