Crunching in as much She-Hulk as I can right now.
I tore through the web and looked for Garney's art. I like 'em!
What the heck is Gambit doing with Daredevil? And why does an established X-Man want to be an apprentice? _________________ "I'm only a DEVIL to those who are demonic." |

Apparently it's not Gambit. Just has a Gambit like mask/hat thing.
DD's definitely in his Shadowland gear. It would be great if this actually delivered on the "Daredevil as leader of the Hand" plot. I loved that idea. _________________ JC

Have the She-Hulk issues featuring Matt been collected in a trade yet? If so, what is the volume number on the trade? |

Doesn't anybody else think that the stripes on DD's hands are similar to... Ikari's? |

I doubt the writers will go back to that, that ship has sailed and the opportunity is wasted.
As for the apprentice story, it could be interesting. A lot of writers have just aped Miller to various degrees of success, while others like Kressel and Waid have told more light hearted Silver Age tales. I think Soule will have to do something different from those two styles and this apprentice story is uncharted turf for DD, some new stories would be good (rather then another Born Again rehash), as long as its not too similar to Batman and Robin. I think we can have some darker more noir stories, without Matt having a mental breakdown every 5 minutes.
However since Soule has a legal background, we may get some great legal stories. |

Could the apprentice be an Inhuman? I mean, with the presence of the Inhumans expanding in the MU I think it's a possibility.
Also, with Marvel denying that it's Gambit doesn't mean it's not him entirely.
What if, after Secret Wars, we're left with an amalgamation character? Maybe it's part Gambit part someone else? Or a character is mimics the physical properties of others?
Damn, I really want to know. |

Nooooo! Batman and Robin, nooooo!
And the boots look like wearing the original yellow suit.

There's an 8 month gap between the end of Secret Wars and these new #1's so who knows what all has happened to Matt in the meanwhile.
With this closer look at the costume, I'm liking it, wrapped fists in a manner of a boxer, the boots look interesting, the darker colors, even the flaming emblem. This looks like someone ready to fight, hard.
If that is Gambit, that's a heckuva twist. To me though, that figure looks younger than our Cajun thief. Plus those look stripes on his suit, not knives. Still, either way, I'm intrigued by this new concept.
As for Soule and Garney, really looking forward to seeing what they bring to the table. |

Yeah, my fav thing about the new look are the hand wraps. Overall it looks pretty cool, even the colour change. Not sure about the emblem but it's not a major problem for me. |

I really don't think it's Gambit. Gambit is arguably older, more skilled and more experienced than Matt. _________________ JC

I still say its a reborn Stick.
I won't get into a whole "this character could beat that character" debate. That always depends on who is writing what, but there is no way Gambit is older than Matt Murdock. Gambit is probably in his mid-to-late 20s at best, whereas Matt is mid-to-late 30s. So Murdock has a good decade on Gambit age wise and probably experience. |

yes...agree completely...

I'm thinking it might be be a 'Robin' retelling...
