“Falling Star”

In "Falling Star," Gambit finds himself caught between a high-stakes heist and a supernatural summons when the astral form of Tante Mattie appears to deliver a cryptic message. As bullets fly and Miami Beach erupts in chaos, he's drawn to a mysterious woman rising from the surf—Anielle—whose arrival throws his mission into uncharted territory. Written by Howard Mackie and brought to life with striking detail by Klaus Janson on both interior art and cover, this issue blends gritty street tension with a haunting, otherworldly pull.
