Rogue has her own X-team now. Their base is the flying “Conquistador” ship, as they no longer wish to live in the Mansion where they’d be supervised by Val Cooper’s Sentinels. In her first adventure, she gets kidnapped(!) Her team investigates the Fordyce Clinic, which was the place that had held mutants captive for research, and find monsters that take Rogue to their leader, who is named “Pan.” Which is short for “Pandemic.” He infects Rogue with a virus, and at the end of the story she’s “dying.”
The twist is that Pan is a geneticist who worked with Xavier to help Rogue when she first joined the X-Men, but we learn in this story that he took that opportunity to steal her genetics and take on the absorption power for himself. By the time the X-Men come to rescue Rogue, Pan has already absorbed hundreds of mutant powers and is ridiculously powerful. But he absorbs Sabretooth and Creed’s healing factor “cures” Pan of all that power—leaving him depowered and he’s never seen again.
This story is pretty good, actually. But Ramos’ art is not my thing. I find it to be distractingly cartoony.
