Beschreibung

Today, the Gambit Spotters (Meg, Vonnie, Riley and Liv) yap far too much, considering only two comics are being covered in this episode. However, these issues have everything! Aliens, the astral plane, Cyclops getting caught thirsting over Psylocke on multiple occasions, Ex-Wives dropping a ton of lore, the semantics of babbling vs rambling, motorcycles, death, how not to remove a skeleton, Brood Goo, and Gambit speaking full French! Plus: a cow side tangent that we probably should have edited out but it’s too late now and a Smash or Pass that was smashed so aggressively we may have needed a moment.
