Rogue on Gambit on Danger action.

 

[Manic]

Wasn't Danger hanging out with Madison during the Annual?

 

[insane polaris]

Yeah, isnt she head of defenses now. so i dont see her on any teams.

 

[Manic]

So... is that semi-robotic freakazoid going to upgrade the X-Men's current Danger Room?

 

[katie_girl09]

Yep, lol. Welcome back!

Maybe nothing happens to Gambit and they're just doing this to keep us in suspense!! Only kidding. Something bad's gotta happen sooner or later. I just hope he pulls through all right. He always does!

Thanks!
If I'm understanding this new power properly, it sounds pretty awesome. Better than what they've done with him in a LOOONG time.

From the looks of it, the solicit for 230 was given with the cover for 231 initially, and no cover for 230 was given. Well, there's still no cover for 230, but 231 finally has a solicit, so here it is:

​

Holy ****! i never even thought about Destiny coming back to life! and what about Zaladane! that would be a fun resurrection.

 

[squeekness]

I'm hoping for Sabertooth myself. Life just hasn't been the same with him gone.

 

[UraniaChang]

Ugh, that means Mystique can't be far away if Destiny is alive...but maybe she can explain something about the whole Messiah stuff to Bishop.

 

[Havok83]

If Destiny really does come back, do you think Marvel will actually portray her and Mystique as a full blown couple now? Things have come a long way since she died 20 years ago

 

[Manic]

I hope so. It was so heavily implied over the years, it's pretty much become fanon-- like Rictor and Shatterstar until David made it actual canon a few months ago.

 

[UraniaChang]

As long as Bobby can be freed from the old witch, she can hook up with Captain America for all I care.

 

[Mystic]

Wait. Destiny and Mystique were a couple?! Where did that happen?

 

[squeekness]

It was heavily implied back in the day. It's not really a new thing.

 

[Havok83]

Wait. Destiny and Mystique were a couple?! Where did that happen?

you didnt know? Claremont heavily implied it when he wrote them back in the day but bc homesexuality was taboo around that time, Marvel never actually portrayed them as a relationship. Things have changed and the writing since that has pretty much confirmed it instead of dancing around the issue. We recently saw Karma have a one night stand with a chick and Northstar has a boyfriend and it wasnt a big deal. Those type of scenes werent possible for Destiny and Mystique in the 80s

 

[OutcryX]

Karma got some bootay then kicked her to the curb? pimperific!

wait..is Carey actually writing this book as a team book? or is it 'Rogue and the X-men'?

It seems more like Rogue AND the X-men. She has her solo stuff with the X-men having their own thing, at least thats what I got from the Annual and this new preview. I have to say Im more excited about Legacy now bc it isnt only about Rogue. I hope Carey keeps her in Utopia, bc this gives him opurtunity to utilize the other characters as well

 

[Manic]

Karma got some bootay then kicked her to the curb? pimperific!

I can see it now...
"That was nice, but you gotta get the **** out."


I hope she remembered to send her siblings to stay with someone else at the time. You can't be having one night stands when you got kids in the house.

 

[OutcryX]

unless she suggested that they didnt see it..its nice having brain powers

I don't know... Carey's all over Mystique. I doubt he'll want to hook her up with anyone but his pet characters (Iceman, since Rogue would be, um, creepy).

And it annoys me she's back to begin with. As many times as they've chased the Destiny diaries into oblivion... and now they just go and resurrect her? C'mon! It makes so much obsolete.

That, and I'm sick of character resurrections. The last 18 months seem like they've had so many of them over the expanded comic-verse... more so than usual. Let people stay dead/gone! This is why so many new characters get stunted and don't get a chance to grow.

 

[Specter313]

Mystique is popping up in Ms. Marvel to face of with her in December, so I don't think she'll be around for Necrosha.

 

[UraniaChang]

Destiny: "It's just a book I wrote down the ideas for my fanfics...you guys actually believed what's in there?"

 

[Manic]

You know, I'd like to see Destiny and Blindfold have a conversation. Blindfold has a habit of speaking in non-linear patterns, and I bet Destiny could keep up with her if she tried.

 

[Havok83]

Carey did a recent podcast with Marvel and when asked who he would want on his ideal team he said, Rogue, Beast, Cyclops, Iceman, Cannonball, Psylocke and Ariel. Talk about random. I think he might be using Ariel more in the future. Hope he takes on Iceman as well

 

[Mike555]

I hope rogue,gambit and danger live through the zombie apocalypse.
