GAMBIT GAZETTE EXCLUSIVE

Gambit: The Hunt For the Tomorrow Stone was a part of the Marvel CyberComics line, an early attempt at digital comics that featured limited animation (more info here and here). Unlike some other Marvel CyberComics, Gambit: The Hunt For the Tomorrow Stone has been impossible to find online since the Marvel CyberComics line was closed. It’s rumored that even Marvel itself doesn’t have a copy of it. This has been a pain point for Marvel completists, since Gambit: The Hunt For the Tomorrow Stone is referenced in a footnote in the print comic Gambit Vol. 3 #12. While the complete comic may in fact be lost to the ages, we at Gambit Gazette have obtained images of the original artwork from artist Dærick Gröss Sr. and are very excited to present them here.

Written by Fabian Nicieza with art by Dærick Gröss Sr., Wikipedia provides the following plot synopsis for Gambit: The Hunt For the Tomorrow Stone: “The plot occurred approximately after Gambit #10 - Gambit helps Spat obtain the Tomorrow Stone to stop her de-aging and save her life. In his quest for it he encounters Sekhmet who needs the Stone herself to save her mother from the suspended animation she was put in by her husband. Sekhmet finally gets the Tomorrow Stone but provides it to Spat and saves her life. After that, Sekhmet goes on looking to find help for her mother”. This story is one of the few appearances of the characters Spat and Grovel, notable for being an attempt by their creators to come up with X-Men characters Marvel couldn’t make action figures out of. The attempt failed, as figures were produced (more on that story here).

Special thanks to Mr. Dærick Gröss Sr., who generously took the time to dig up these images and provide them to us. Please check out Dærick’s website and follow him on Facebook and Twitter.

All artwork we have from Gambit: The Hunt For the Tomorrow Stone can be viewed here.

Mulder and Scully are sitting in their car and they're both thinking "am I a lesbian" and neither of them will say it. Mulder stays in the egg zone because being a woman "seems like a lot of effort," failing to realize that trans women can be butch & Scully likes to pretend she's simply career driven with no time for a man. But there's still that inexplicable longing. Their weird little tension. X files is yuri to me

Democrats are so ready to rehabilitate capitalist war criminals, including the one that they detested in the 2000s. Watch them do this with Trump in 10 years.
