Rogue and Gambit Are Ready to Tie the Knot Thanks to Marvel Rivals

This marked a monumental moment in X-Men history for fans, and now Marvel is officially doubling down on Rogue and Gambit’s iconic romance by seeing the two tie the knot in the Marvel Rivals universe. Given the synergy between Rivals and the comics, it’s likely that Rogue ** x Gambit ** are about to become a focus for the series, perhaps even with Armageddon, marking an exciting new era for f

The new look is part of a Knullified variant cover initiative starring various heroes, set to celebrate the return of Venom's nemesis, who is getting his own series in January 2026. Coming from Al Ewing, Tom Waltz and Juanan Ramírez, the series follows Knull who - though resurrected - has had his powers and station stolen by the Asgardian goddess Hela . The Knullified Hulk design and cover are by Leinil Francis Yu and will appear on select copies of Infernal Hulk

In the past, Hulk fans have complained that the character has disappointingly few true alternate skins in the game. The Knullified Hulk is an opportunity to increase that number by giving the Hulk a true symbiote evolution, unlocking a **Marvel Rivals ** design that makes the 'Monster Hulk' state incredibly lite

Not much in our world can rival the sheer majesty and creativity of nature, not even Marvel’s Spider-Man . Taking the internet by storm is a photo of the Mwanza flat-headed rock agama, a real-life lizard from Eastern Africa that’s earned fame for its uncanny resemblance to the web-slin

The wedding invitation featured in the post on X is cleverly thematic, resembling a playing card, Gambit’s most iconic weapon of choice. However, this isn’t an ordinary card, as it features pink as its primary color and a creative mix of suits, including a spade, the X-Men "X," and the king and queen of hearts symb

DC K.O. #1 launches DC’s new 22-issue (not including prologues), tournament-style fighting game Dlc|https://fightnewsplus.com/ series, where heroes and villains face off in bracket-style battles, all striving to become the DC champion capable of gathering enough Omega Energy to challenge Darkseid at his most powerful as the King Omega. It’s this very premise that serves as an epic pitch for DC’s next game , one that, if properly capitalized on, could rival the massive popularity of Marvel Riv

Comic fans of the Hulk have been well-served by Marvel Rivals . Available cosmetics include takes on his gangster form as Joe Fixit, post-apocalyptic form as the Maestro, and alien warlord form as the Green Scar . However, there's still room for a truly dark take on the Hulk. While the Knullified design above would be ideal, other options include the Titan form (from when Hulk was possessed by D'Spayre) and his Kluh form from the AXIS event. These are the truly evil versions of the Hulk, and would unlock his full potential for intimidat

A fun fact about the Spider-Man Lizard and its coloring is that those with brighter red and blue scales are typically more dominant than their duller counterparts. Females and non-dominant males usually have muted brown or gray coloring, which helps them blend into rocky environme

Unlike most of the other Strategist-type characters , Gambit isn't your typical healbot or secondary support. He's one of the most demanding Strategist heroes we've seen yet in this game, and is also exactly why I've been having a blast using him in Quickplay and Competit

A season centered around romance would be almost the tonal opposite of Season 4's conflict between Daredevil and Angela in the Heart of Heaven. The lighthearted atmosphere might be a nice change of pace for the game, taking a departure from the abyssal battle against Knull on Klyntar and the intense angel vs devil motiff of Seaso

Right now, DC K.O. exists solely as a comic series . However, its premise (DC heroes and villains clashing in a tournament to gather Omega Energy) makes for the perfect game pitch. Blending the cinematic brutality of Mortal Kombat with the team-based chaos of Marvel Rivals , DC K.O. could become the dynamic, character-driven fighting game DC fans have been waiting

The line about draining life force could be a very direct reference to Rogue , the X-Men whose powers involve taking someone's vitality with a touch. With "playing cards" being another hint at Gambit, Season 5 might have the two X-Men appear as the next playable characters for Marvel Riva

There are multiple directions DC could take such a game. One option would be embracing Mortal Kombat-style one-on-one combat, staying true to the comic’s duel-centric fights. Alternatively, DC could go all in and challenge Marvel Rivals directly with large-scale PvP matches and strategic team-based gameplay. Either approach could set the stage for a truly epic experie

If this lizard logic were applied to Spider-Man, his vibrant colors would mark him as an alpha male by animal kingdom standards. That would also make him one of the most desired males among females, which isn’t far from the truth, considering **Spider-Man ** has charmed some of the most beautiful women in the Marvel Univer
