X-Men Vs. The Royal Flush Gang

 They've never quote been A-list characters, but I have enjoyed the Royal Flush Gang in all of their incarnations, from the old west to present day to the future.  The family aspect of the team plus rotating roster of Aces always keep them interesting.

Gambit Vs. The Royal Flush Gang

It looks like Marvel pulled a fast one (SPOILERS for those not caught up on recent X-Men events), by promoting one superhero wedding and giving us another instead.  Rather than Colossus and Kitty Pryde getting hitched, it was Gambit and Rogue who tied the knot at the last minute.  It will be interesting to see where that development takes each character going forward.

A big thank you goes out to Philip Pfeiffer for not only supporting the blog, but suggesting this match up!

Jack of Hearts Vs. The Royal Flush Gang

I have always really liked The Royal Flush Gang.  I find it cool that the team has gone through so many incarnations, from the old West to present day, often with mysterious leaders/benefactors pulling the strings.  Plus, the family aspect to the group adds a different dynamic than most villainous gatherings.  The DC animated shows did some really interesting things with them as well.
