Gar nicht so einfach, Personen anhand von Symbolen zu identifizieren. Dafür sehr wuselig beim Resetten des Materials für die nächste Runde, etwas zu überproduziert.

graphic, on the right hand side Steve Martin with arrow through head, left side Duerer's picture of St. Sebastian with arrow through head and some other parts of his impressively toned body. Those old time saints used to work out, damn!

suspiciously, these two guys have never been seen in the same room together.

It's rare to see a #SuperVillain with a #SecretIdentity. Off the top of my head, it's glossed over at best. What if the #Joker was secretly the beloved owner of an ice cream parlour, or a coach, or cab driver etc? Someone you would never guess. Wouldn't that be even creepier?

The Thief's Echo: Gambit and the Card That Costs a Soul What Is the Price of a Secret? What happens when the most charming man in the room is also the one with the most to hide? Here at Marvel Echoes, we trace the ripples of origin stories. We look at the moment a character’s life splits, and we follow the echoes of that single event across decades. For Remy LeBeau, the man called Gambit, that origin spark isn't a single moment. It’s a secret. A festering wound hidden beneath a trench coat, a disarming smile, and a cloud of kinetic-purple energy. To understand the Ragin' Cajun, you can't just look at the '90s icon. That’s the performance. To find the real man, we have to trace the ripple of his true origin—a prophesied birth in the bayou—to the explosive, resonant echo of his darkest sin. What is the real price of a secret, chère? And can a soul, once sold, ever be bought back? Marvel Echoes Resonance: Episode 33 Origin Spark: Le Diable Blanc & The King of Cool Gambit’s origin is a perfect echo in itself—a story told in two conflicting parts: the myth he was born into, and the icon he was designed to be. Long before he was an X-Man, Remy LeBeau was a pawn. His in-universe origin spark isn't one of heroism; it's one of prophecy. Born in New Orleans with burning, blood-red eyes, he was instantly feared and abducted from his hospital ward by the LeBeau clan, the New Orleans Thieves Guild as seen in Gambit Vol. 3 #1 (1999). They believed he was "Le Diablo Blanc," the White Devil prophesied to unite the warring Thieves and Assassins Guilds. From his first breath, Remy’s life was not his own. He was a tool, a living "weight of prophecy." This is the central, hidden truth of Gambit. We see him as the ultimate fearless individualist, but that persona is a lie. It's a "thief's echo"—a mask he created in reaction to a life that gave him zero agency. He's not just a thief of objects; he's a man desperately trying to steal back a sense of self that was denied him from birth. And it is this desperation for control that would directly cause his greatest sin. The '90s Icon & The Storm Co-Sign The other half of his origin is the one we all remember. In the real world, Remy LeBeau was a bolt from the blue, an icon of '90s cool created by writer Chris Claremont and artist Jim Lee. His first in-story appearance, however, was in The Uncanny X-Men #266 (1990), with art by the brilliant Mike Collins. Claremont’s decision to debut Gambit alongside a de-aged, amnesiac Storm was a masterstroke. By having this total unknown save one of Marvel's most respected heroes, Claremont did two things: he established Gambit's competence and his morality (a "rogue with a heart"). This "Storm Co-Sign" instantly legitimized him and forged a deep, platonic bond that would echo for decades, setting the stage for the family he would find... and the family he would betray. The Resonant Arc: The Trial in the Ice For seven years, Gambit’s past was just a collection of dark hints. But the true nature of his sin was older, darker, and stemmed from that same desperate need for control his origin forged in him. As revealed in stories like X-Men Origins: Gambit #1 (2009), Remy’s mutant power was growing unstable. He was a ticking time bomb. Once again, Remy LeBeau had no agency. So, echoing his past, he sought a solution from an outside source: Mister Sinister. Sinister "cured" him, nerfing his powers to a manageable level. But this control came at a price. Sinister called in the debt, tasking Gambit with assembling a team of assassins, the Marauders, and leading them into the Morlock tunnels. Gambit, believing it was a reconnaissance mission, did as he was asked. He was wrong. When the Marauders began the " Mutant Massacre," a horrified Gambit was unable to prevent the slaughter. He only managed to escape with one small life: a child named Sarah, who would grow up to become the X-Man Marrow. This was his "darkest secret." The Failure of Love The secret festered for years. And then, in The Uncanny X-Men #350 (1997), the echo became a roar. The X-Men are captured in Antarctica. Their captor, a disguised Magneto, stages a "mock trial" for the "traitor" in their midst: Gambit. He appoints a judge. Rogue, the love of Gambit's life, is forced to be the instrument of judgment. She gives him the one kiss he never, ever wanted, absorbing everything: the deal with Sinister, the blood, the screams of the Morlocks, the full, unvarnished truth. And it shatters her. This story is the failure of love in the face of absolute truth. The real tragedy is that when Rogue absorbed his memories, she also absorbed his own soul-deep self-loathing. Her repulsion, her horror, her calling him a "monster"... it is a mirror of his own guilt, weaponized by her powers and echoed back at him. In one of the most heartbreaking moments in X-Men history, Rogue renounces him and abandons him to die in the frozen wasteland. His greatest fear—losing his new family—had come true. Legacy and Echoes: Healing the Thief's Heart The ripple from that judgment in the ice defined Gambit for over twenty years. His legacy was no longer about charm; it became a desperate, painful quest for atonement. This profound self-loathing is why he was so susceptible to "quick fixes," like falling under Apocalypse's sway to become the Horseman of Death, all in a misguided attempt to find redemption or save Rogue. For decades, the Rogue/Gambit relationship was a broken record, a toxic cycle of "will-they-won't-they" defined by the wound of Uncanny X-Men #350. And then, in 2018, writer Kelly Thompson picked up the pieces. In the Rogue & Gambit (2018) series, Kitty Pryde sends the estranged pair on a mission... to a couples counseling retreat. They are literally forced to confront their shared trauma and the lingering echo of that day in the ice. This is the perfect counter-echo. The Trial ended in judgment and abandonment. The Therapy ends in understanding and acceptance. The wound is healed. This series leads directly to their impulsive, sudden, and absolutely perfect marriage in X-Men Gold #30 (2018), launching their new legacy in Mr. and Mrs. X. This is the final, beautiful ripple. Gambit's legacy is a 30-year story about a man born with no agency, who made a desperate choice to get it back, and committed an unforgivable sin as a result. His marriage to Rogue is the ultimate verdict: redemption is possible. It is the story of a thief's heart, finally healing, and a man who, at last, built a legacy shared with the one person who saw his absolute worst... and, in the end, still chose to love him.
