I hope he goes out with a bang, because hes not mentioned to be on any of the teams after Apocalypse is through with the Xmen.If somehow Gambit does live on, I'll be pretty bumbed, because he has one of the greatest possibilities for a ressurrection story.
making Gambit Death is cool...and unexpected.

spoilers from 182, for anyone who hasn't read it.
Spoiler:
gazer and dr. foster are to fight to the death for the position of war, but ozymandias kills foster, puts gazer in his dept, and apparently wants to overthrow apocalypse. we also see apocalypse "recruit" sunfire, who is later chained to a wall and makes some effort to escape. we're also exposed to pestilence, who wears a big suit of armor and is seen absorbing a handful of deadly viruses which he can apparently hold onto and release at will. reminds me of the host, from the mystique series. i only assume it's a guy, though, as no gender is really given. the suit doesn't have boobs, though.wasn't a particularly enthralling issue, and i'm still holding out for the idea that sunfire won't be a horseman, despite these obvious signs to the contrary.
I read somewhere Pestilence is either possibly (possible, not sure if the sources are correct) one of the two at the bottom. My guess would be that it's the first possiblitiyconsidering two of the revealed horsemen are in that list on uncannyxmen.net who are Sunfire and Gambit, and the person outside the list is Gazer.
