The wonderful Project Rooftop updates after an all-too-long absence with Marvel’s Gambit, re-envisioned in somewhat more practical attire by Chad Thomas. It’s not a radical departure, but Thomas provides a welcome alternative to the inexplicable Spandex/trenchcoat/headgear ensemble that the character so often wears.

I was unfamiliar with Thomas’ work, so I’m glad he’s being spotlighted by Project Rooftop. You can view his gallery, or visit his blog or MySpace page. Go, look; it’s fun, and good, stuff.

(As an aside, I think it’s hilarious that the Marvel wiki entry for Gambit lists “bilingual” under his abilities, as if it’s a job resume. If I’m not mistaken, he’s also fluent in Excel and Microsoft Word, and can type 45 words per minute.)
