So I've been on a nostalgia kick lately and have been watching a bunch of the original xmen animated series.. Which got me thinking.. I haven't read any books with jubilee in them, and have only read an annual with gambit in it.. So... What happened to them?

Gambit has been moping around and doing pretty much nothing in X-Men: Legacy and, more awesomely, mentoring X-23 in the recently canceled X-23 ongoing, where he went globetrotting with Laura and acted as her cool big brother. He also made some random appearances in the adjectiveless X-Men book before Schism happened. After Regenesis, he joined Wolverine's side and now teaches at the school. He's still in X-Men: Legacy, which now focuses on Rogue and the other staff members of the school, and he's also set to appear in the upcoming Astonishing X-Men by Marjorie Liu alongside characters like Wolverine, Northstar, and Karma.

Jubilee became a vampire during the Necrosha arc. Since then, she's dealt with being a blood-sucking ex-mutant in various different books (including X-23, where she became BFFs with Laura), and right now she's kicking ass in the adjectiveless X-Men title with Storm, Psylocke, Domino, Warpath, and Colossus. She's on Cyclops's side.

She turned into a vampire in Curse of the Mutants, not Necrosha. Everything else is true to the max though.

Jubilee is now a vampire and is part of Storm's team.

Gambit is gonna be part of Wolverine's team in Astonshing for a few issues I think and have a close relationship with X-23

THIS... pretty much summed up their current history!! But it was Curse of the Mutants where she turned Team Edward, not Necrosha!!

For Jubilee's Vampirification (I'm sure I just made that) check out X-Men: Curse Of The Mutants and follow it up with Wolverine And Jubilee. Be warned that she's not the same feisty firework-popping kid from the old cartoons though.

More then a few issues, this is the Astonishing X-Men team/writer for the long haul.

Other then being a lead in that book he's in X-Men Legacy, the main characters are Rogue, Gambit, Rachel Grey and Frenzy, i think.(his role has got bigger now that the book has got a new writer).

Quite a good time to start reading if your a fan of both as Jubilee has returned and Gambit is now a lead in a couple of books.

X-Men

The Uncanny X-Men are a superhero team of mutants that were founded by fellow mutant Professor Charles Xavier. They are dedicated to helping fellow mutants and sworn to protect a world that fears and hates them.
