Hey, long time LeBeau fan, but also big time x-fan as well. This is my intro, in a day or two prepare for an epic posting by myself. Take care.
So I held off on this one until Rogue finally showed up. –incoming rant- My favorite mutants are Gambit and by virtue of that Rogue as well as Magick and Legion. The former pairing have obviously been mistreated. Gambit went from being one of the baddest H2H fighters, a person whose prep was on par with the likes of someone like Doom, one of the mutants whose skill in manipulation of his mutant powers is rivaled only by FR. In fact FR, Remy and Legion are pretty much (along with Jean Grey/PF and all of her offshoots) are the mutant heroes with the most powerful feats AFAIK. BOA! LOL! For the most part, doubt anyone will do anything with that though there a few select ways worth rekindling it. At the same time Rogue was made to look like a confused damsel for too long which ultimately culminated in a Rogue evolution that was only possible by stripping away the entirety of her core. She’s a hot-headed girl raised by two nefarious mothers that would always cherish and respect physical contact. A character that should be rightfully written as loose lipped with locked hips (lol Sentry trolls). A fireball that never lets others down, let alone the position she holds as a hero. Her killing someone in UA should be ripping her apart. I would love to retcon her and Magneto’s sex life, there at least three ways out, ranging from hilarious to heart-wrenching. Having said that I would love to see a female x-player, it’s just that, it most definitely shouldn’t be Rogue. If anything Rogue should be the biggest canidate to go exclusively lesbian (how do you beat dating Remy?)
Really am glad though that Magick and Legion are actually finally becoming characters, Magick was just underdeveloped and young, while Legion for years, was a walking talking plot device but both have loads of potential as fertile characters.
