In the penultimate episode of Season 2, "Dead Man's Hand," Cable and his X-Force team arrive at X-Corp with the corpse of Apocalypse, revealing that a resurrected Gambit has broken free of his creator's control after being turned into the Horseman of Death. The scattered X-Men quickly unite and track him down to New Orleans, where Remy LeBeau has laid a trap for his old allies in the Thieves and Assassins Guilds, converting them into deadly underlings. Driven by his corrupted state, Gambit attempts a dark ritual involving his former fiancé Bella Donna and the Eternal Candra to secure an artifact that would make Rogue immortal. An intense confrontation ensues as Rogue desperately tries to reach her former lover, only to be rendered unconscious by his twisted new powers before the rest of the X-Men swoop in to fight off his new army.
