His name is Gambit and he told you to remember it…and it sounds like he’ll be back to haunt the X-Men in the final two episodes of X-Men ’97 Season 2.
X user @hexfacilitycom has spilled the details on the release dates, episode titles and brief synopses for the new batch of episodes and they indicate that the former X-Man, who sacrificed himself in the attack on Genosha, will indeed return as a Horseman of Apocalypse in Episode 8, “Dead Man’s Hand.”

The episode, which is scheduled to stream on August 5th, will see “the X-Men confront a ghost from their past.” And it seems that episode sets up the season finale in which the team’s “past comes back to haunt them.” The finale is almost certainly a reference to the fallout of time travel shenanigans in the first four episodes.
