some people really don’t like to be
touched and with rogue there’s a good
reason for that
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we
will explore the comic book origins of
rogue of the x-men
as with most comic book characters
they’re often reimagining and different
versions to a character’s past we have
chosen to primarily follow the storyline
which unfolded in 1990s classic x-men
number 44 which was expanded upon in
1994 x-men unlimited number four and
2004 s row number two and three
rogues first appearance in the Marvel
Universe was in 1981 s avengers annual
number 10 but she didn’t give you as a
hero instead row was an integral part of
fellow mutant Mystique’s plan to disable
the Avengers and free her colleagues
from prison
rogues origin wasn’t revealed during
this appearance but readers did witness
her special powers a result of her
mutant genes rogue possessed the ability
to absorb the memories and powers of
anyone with whom she came into
skin-to-skin contact
incapacitating them as she did so rogue
eventually switched from villainy to
heroics and became an invaluable member
of the x-men along the way more details
emerged about her origins 1990s classic
x-men number 44 for example related that
as a youth she lived with mystique and
another mutant
destiny as the story opened young robe
was playing with a friend named Freddy
when Freddy attempted to kiss her ro was
clearly interested but pushed him away
later mystique reminded rogue that she
was different from others and needed to
stay away from boys rogue resented this
advice and instead ran off to meet up
with Freddy again at which point she
gave in and kissed him my first
boyfriend that’s what I kept her
when their lips touched rogues powers
kicked in Freddy was knocked unconscious
while rogue absorbed his memories which
drove home for her the fact that she
could not lead a normal life when she
left Freddy she returns to mystique and
told her that she was ready to join her
efforts to help mutants overthrow humans
on her first mission under the command
of mystique rogue was sent to absorb the
powers of Miss Marvel because of Miss
Marvel strong will and formidable powers
this encounter was neither short nor
easy when the dust cleared rogue had
permanently gained all of Miss marbles
powers which notably included flight and
super strength as well as aspects of
Miss Marvel psyche rogues meeting with
mystique was further explored in 1994’s
x-men unlimited number four in this
retelling the boy she kissed was named
Cody rather than Freddy and the kiss
happened just before she met mystique it
also put Cody into a coma after which
rogue was forced to flee and it was at
this point in which mystique took her in
and raised her as her own child
there were various other modifications
over the years and in 2004 readers met
rogues real parents robe number two and
three related that anna-marie as road
was called at Birth was born on a
commune in Mississippi the members of
the commune including her parents
dabbled in mysterious forces in an
attempt to raise their consciousness to
a higher level during one such attempt
the men secretly slipped the women a
special drug which led to disastrous
consequences a gateway to another
dimension was opened and Rhodes mother
enraged at the duplicity of her husband
vanished into that other world
rogues father notably shaken by this
experience abandoned rogue and left her
with her aunt Carrie who raised her
until that fateful day she kissed a boy
and fell under the sway of mystique
Rogue has been featured prominently in
other media making many appearances in
film and TV adaptations of the x-men
comics her unique power is intriguing
and the fact that it prevents her from
engaging in direct human contact makes
her a compelling and fascinating
character as well as a fan favorite are
