Tieves and Tassins, talking cajun talk in this episode of the podcast. X-Ternally Yours or X-Men Origins: Gambit is a really fun episode of X-Men: The Animated Series. We get a snapshot of Gambit's past where he deals with a clingy ex-fiancee, 300 year old gang war between the Thieves and the Assassins and their worship of a strange tithe seeking deity called the external. The lore established here is really quite interesting and it's a shame we didn't get to delve into more, unfortunately we gotta keep getting reminders of the damn Savage Land.
Regardless, we had a ton of fun with this one, diggin' on Pierre and his crazy cool accent. Matter of fact these are the best/funniest accents we've seen in animation. Also another badass opening which turns into a brutal Danger Room session where Cyclops is nearly killed. Very reminicent of the first Robocop for me. Really cool stuff.
