Rogue disappears!
But she’s having fun. (Don’t worry, things will get very serious very soon.)
Professor X has apparently become an armchair psychiatrist (literally, look at his chair), but it doesn’t help Rachel.
She’s still sad. Storm finds Rogue and lets her share memories…
Rogue is being pursued by SHIELD and Henry Peter Gyrich, who have one of Forge’s neutralizer weapons, and Mystique is in disguise within SHIELD and trying to impede them from de-powering Rogue.
Forge also doesn’t appreciate SHIELD attacking mutants (he thought they’d use the weapon for the wraiths and not mutants), so he also tries to stop them.
But he mistakenly causes a neutralizer blast to be diverted and hit Storm instead of Rogue.
And so Storm is depowered.
And also…the Dire Wraiths!
Best crossover with ROM where ROM never even appears….
