Traumatized by the experience, Anna started wearing body-concealing clothing that eliminated the possibility of body contact. In time, Mystique turned Rogue's loneliness, bitterness and despair into anger, recruiting her into the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. Rogue confronted the Avenger Ms. Marvel, intending to steal her powers. However, things went wrong when the transfer of psyche and powers became permanent. The shock of absorbing such a strong persona drove Rogue insane and she attempted to kill Ms.
Marvel by throwing her off the Golden Gate Bridge. Marvel was saved by Spider Woman. Though Rogue felt guilt over the incident, she fought the Avengers using her powers.
Unable to deal with her powers and Ms. Marvel's psyche, she turned to Professor X for help. Professor X was unable to help her immediately but recruited her to the X-Men, against the wishes of the members in the team.
She gained the trust of the team after she protected Wolverine's fiancee, Mariko Yashida, in Japan; and risking her life to save Colossus in a fight against the Brotherhood. Rogue was pulled into the mystical portal Siege Perilous during a fight. Rogue returned to Earth, with the remaining portions of Ms. Marvel's personality purged and reconstituted as another entity.
A powerless Rogue turned up in the prehistoric Savage Land where she faced the Ms. There was not enough life-force to sustain both of them but Magneto arrived in time to destroy the Ms. Marvel entity and save Rogue. Though Rogue was attracted to Magneto, she parted ways with him when he killed Zaladane. Rogue rejoined the X-Men where she went on to share an on-off relationship with fellow teammate Gambit. She joined Storm's team to recover Destiny's Diaries.
She requested teammate Sage to evolve her powers to the stage where she can use all the powers she had ever absorbed at once. After injuries sustained in a fight against the inter-dimensional warlord Khan, both Gambit and Rogue lost their powers. They left the X-Men to lead a life away from adventuring and explore their relationship. Both of them returned to the X-Men and regained their powers.
However, their relationship became strained due to their inability to touch each other. The situation worsened when Mystique masqueraded as young mutant Foxx to seduce Gambit with the intention of breaking up Rogue and Gambit's relationship. Mystique tried to set up Rogue with another mutant Pulse but failed. Gambit eventually became Apocalypse's Horseman, believing he can defeat Apocalypse eventually.

When the X-Men brought Rogue back to her old home in Caldecott to recuperate, they were attacked by Sinister's Marauders who captured Rogue.
A battle soon erupted between different factions when the first mutant baby was born since M-Day, on which most of the mutant population lost their powers. At the climatic battle, Mystique and Gambit captured the baby and placed the baby in direct contact with Rogue.
They talk and they fight and still no one should care. While reading, I just kept checking the page count until the thing was over. Now the third part is just slightly better than the first. In this, they feature Rogue and Mimic. I have read all the X-Men comics since Mimic was first introduced and he was never actually given a personality. It's difficult to actually care because he will be forgotten for a couple more years and then inserted into another story where his part could be played by any other third-string character with no personality.
And that's it, the series has abruptly ended to make way for Marvel Now stuff. Jul 06, Jeff Harris rated it liked it Shelves: This is the X-Men Legacy point-of-view to what was happening during Avengers vs. The part that included Rogue's team facing off with She-Hulk, Moon Knight, and Falcon was entertaining enough, and it definitely made sense who was responsible for instigating the actual physical portions of the confrontation.
The middle portion of this graphic novel was a solo adventure by Rogue on another planet or in another dimension or something There's one issue where Magneto has an intriguing offer for Rogue that's just "eh," and then we have the final issue of the series before it's rebooted as a title about Legion that serves to tie up several loose ends. It's an "okay" story arc, but other than the AvX and closing portions, it's not all that important in the long run. May 07, Chris Lemmerman rated it liked it Shelves: This volume of X-Men Legacy starts very strongly, and ends very strongly.
It's the middle that lets it down. The first story has the Avengers come to the Jean Grey School and cause trouble, before Rogue gets involved in the conflict in her own special way. It's when she ends up in another dimension that the story drags for three issues in the middle, and becomes a slog to read. The volume ends well however with the final two issues dealing with Rogue's journey coming full circle and her relation This volume of X-Men Legacy starts very strongly, and ends very strongly.

Nov 07, Fraser Sherman rated it liked it Shelves: Graphic novels tied in to big events usually flop for me when read out of sequence, post-event. This one is frequently confusing a lot of events are happening in other books but impacting this one but as the focus is Rogue's personal arc—her history as a criminal, her present status as a hero—it works reasonably well. However the three issues where Rogue gets sucked into an alien world for sword-and-planet adventures are depressingly generic, and serve purely to pad out the length.
I dropped out of a lot of X-titles, including Legacy, in the past few years, as they began to resume being soap operas as overwrought as anything Chris Claremont ever did in his later years. As a result, though, I missed this particular run, during the AvX saga, focused on Rogue and her relationship with Ms Marvel. It's overall good character-building stuff, and I enjoyed it quite a bit. Jan 03, Alex Sarll added it.
Gage is nobody's idea of comics' greatest writer, but he's usually entertaining enough. And even the worst crossovers one of which this surely was can generate fun stories out of the focus-grouped limelight, in marginal books such as this. But aside from one rather sweet issue wrapping up Rogue's relationship with Magneto, this is woeful - it opens with some rote hero versus hero smackdowns, before moving on to a Planet Hulk retread laden with creaky subtext.
Jul 03, JJ rated it liked it. Ah Rogue how I love you. So Rogue beats the crap out of the She Hulk. Do you really need another reason to read this? If you don't know what is going on with the whole division of the Phoenix Force or Wolverine and Beast getting pissed then you might be a tad bit lost. This collection jumps around a lot in the second half but is still awesome.
Dialogue is a bit basic and you don't get a ton of great wit but maybe that is because Beast is only on two pages and never speaks. Jan 17, Nate rated it it was ok. Rogue is a fun character but this collection just didn't do her justice. By staying mostly adjacent to the AvX story line that consumed a big hunk of the Marvel universe at that time they took one of their more interesting pieces off the board for the sake of a ho hum, fish out of water X-men space story.

I loved Frenzy's story, it really fitted well there. The main storyline featuring Rogue was also a great one, I really liked the whole metaphor thing going on, usually these kind of stories don't convince me but somehow this one did. Now I really have to find what comes next May 31, Jase rated it it was ok.
The art wasn't great and the story only tied in partially to the AvX series. As of issue , Rogue replaced Professor Xavier as the central character. Having now achieved control over her absorption powers, Scott Summers Cyclops has repositioned Rogue as mentor to the younger mutants under the protection of the X-Men on Utopia. Rogue is in the unique position to be able to help the students, due to her abilities, allowing fresh insight to their use and control.
She has so far, also, been shown to face off against notable deadly adversaries including: She also took part in the X-Men: Second Coming crossover, acknowledging her special link to Hope. The title was one of two ongoing books to house the Age of X crossover. As part of the Marvel NOW! Legacy ended with issue Legacy title was relaunched as a new series with a new issue 1, written by Simon Spurrier and penciled by Tan Eng Huat. The new series focused on Legion , the son of the recently murdered Charles Xavier, who is struggling to keep his multitude of personalities under control while trying to honor his father's legacy by preemptively fighting off threats to mutants using his many powers.
The 25th issue of the volume was renumbered to commemorate the longevity of the series. Issue features a plot by a collaboration between the three X-Men: This is also the final issue of X-Men: A third volume of X-Men: Legacy was planned, to be written by Chris Claremont.
However, that series was renamed Nightcrawler after its featured character. Since the introduction of X-Men , the plotlines of this series and other X-Books have been interwoven to varying degrees. For most of its run, X-Men has featured a completely different battalion of X-Men than other titles featuring the X-Men. While it was not uncommon for characters of one book to appear in the other, any major stories concerning characters were dealt with in their own team book. X-Men and Uncanny X-Men have shared two periods of time where they were more or less treated as a single, fortnightly series.
In both of these cases they shared an author: With three main X-Men series running concurrently, members from each book continue to appear in the other titles. In his role as mentor he has typically been present in the book, but he has notable absences, including issues 59—71 in government custody after the Onslaught crisis and 99— educating Cadre K in space. At many times the team roster has been the same as that appearing in Uncanny X-Men , and during two periods the two books have even been treated by their writer as a single bi-weekly title issues 46—69 by Scott Lobdell and issues 85—99 by Alan Davis.
