This is a video from my YouTube channel, Jack’s World.
This video revisits a somewhat controversial comic that has garnered mixed feelings among comic book fans. X-Men Gold #30 was billed as the wedding between Kitty Pryde and Piotr Rasputin, a well-known romance that had been blossoming for years leading up to this comic. And this wedding promised to be the culmination of their relationship.
However, that’s not how things played out. Yes, a couple did get married in this issue, but it wasn’t Kitty and Pitor. It was Rogue and Gambit.
But regardless of how you feel about the pairing, this comic found a way to cheapen every romance involved. And I feel it offers some frustrating, but relevant messages for future superhero marriages.
