      Actually normal Gambit can't charge organic matter. Aka anything that is alive. He had Mr. Sinister take a piece of brain tissue to weaken his abilities so he could control them better. I don't know about the Gambit in the recent comics but if he didn't get that piece back he shouldn't be able to charge living things.

      It doesn't take much thought to realize he wouldn't explode anything when he was stealing so don't try to be witty... it doesn't fit... At least if you're going to make a smart comment, be smart first.

    Gambit was hands down one of my favorite X-men when I was growing up, this was before his omega level promotion. I remember after the first episode of the X-men the animated series, Wolverine instantly became everyone's favorite character from the start, after a 5 year run it would be Gambit who'd become the most favorite at the end. His character was one of the best in the show, he looked and acted cool, a super hero by day but at night he's a gambling hustling bad boy. Without his powers he's like a ghetto James Bond, But with his powers including his set's of skills and abilities he's simply just Gambit. The writers kept his origins a mystery, this was a writers tactic, they stretched his story throughout the season, and his story was used to add a bit more weight to an episode that they felt was light. Those were some clever story telling and so effective that it kept us wanting even more info every time we the audience got to learn something very small about him. Oh and I almost forgot to mention that Gambit was so cool he starts hitting on Rogue (she currently posses Captain Marvels powers) right from the moment he meets her and has her off her feet by the third season, the man is a legend.
    having said that I still found this sketch to be so funny that I loved it. Don't let your knowledge stop you from being to laugh about it, sometimes it's best to know when it's okay to turn off the thinking cap.

      Gambit is strong, but he is *not* Omega-level. Omega-levels have the strongest genetic potential of their power type. Gambit got a power boost to the peak of his power type to fight New Son/Sun, but he lost that when New Son fell. Now, New Son was technically him from a different universe, and was probably Omega-level, but 616 Gambit (and any other Gambit that did *not* nuke their own planet) are not Omega. "The following are the known Omega-level mutants as of the House of X relaunch: Jamie Braddock, Iceman, Elixir, Jean Grey, Legion, Magneto, Proteus, Mister M, Storm, Exodus, Quentin Quire, Franklin Richards, Vulcan, Hope Summers."
