I don't recall the rape angle, but it has the stink of a writer's retcon. Still I feel like we could discuss this all day, which I'd enjoy but I don't want to take the focus away from the artist's very nice picture. Just my personal preference being that Miss Marvel's best contribution to comics was evolving the Rogue character. And I'll take Karla over Carol any day.

For what it's worth, do a google for Rape of Ms. Marvel and you'll get the shameful mess but this happened right before Rogue's debut in Avengers Annual #10.

Sure, I'm totally down for what your personal preference is and I think it's a fantastic one. Rogue IS awesome and both her and Carol are better off for each other. I mean, can you imagine if they retconned THAT away? They'd both be way lame. I think Karla is really cool and an excellent addition to Carol and anyone else's rogues gallery.

and I'm glad you like the image! :)

Rogue absorbed her powers because she had no choice. Avengers were attacking their island with basically the intention of killing a teenaged girl. Rogue is so much more interesting that Ms. Marvel in my opinion. The only time Ms. Marvel was readable was when Moonstone was the main character lol.

lolz. The island thing...that was Legacy #227 or something? That was Karla/Moonstone/Ms. Marvel, so I find it interesting that you'd use *that* as your example. And Rogue already had Ares's powers at the time.

This picture of me and Dave's was in response to Legacy #269 where Carol came to talk and Rogue started swinging because she didn't want to hear the truth. I was mad because Rogue owes Carol, IMO.

I won't try to talk you out of thinking differently about Rogue. I love Rogue! Even if she did almost kill Carol when they first met, ambushing her after Carol's rape, stealing her powers, mind and memories and then throwing her off a bridge, hoping the fall would kill her (and failing, obviously). Rogue's come a long way since then and should be proud of her accomplishments.

Personally, I love Carol. :)

No, I meant the same issue you referenced. During the Avengers vs X-Men storyline, no? Where basically the Avenger's goal is to kill Hope before the phoenix force can inhabit her? I'd swing first as well. Not to mention the last time I remember the 2 meeting, Rogue was more or less depowered and Ms. Marvel broke her ribs. I don't see that Rogue owes her anything, they were on opposite sides of the law on their first encounter. My opinion is if you're a superhero or villain, you should be prepared to meet a unfortunate end any time you put on the spandex.

Actually, not to belay the point, but what women attacks another one after she's been raped?

Carol and Rogue's latest meeting was Carol reaching out to Rouge in an attempt to see if cooler heads could prevail, and Rogue sucker-punched Carol. AvX has been a sludge of hot mess from the get-go though. However, since then, the two were hand-in-hand allies taking on psycho-Majick. I like them as a team and I hate when Rogue and Carol fight.

Breaking ribs IS nasty, but by that rationale, Carol will be 'even' when she ambushes Rogue in her home after she gets raped, steals her memories, takes her powers and kills her by tossing her off of a bridge. *then* they'll be even.

I agree with your sentiment about an unfortunate end, but Rogue's the one that was the villain who wants to be a hero. That sort of thing isn't given after you murder people. It's earned, which is what I like about Rogue. Her contrition and wanting to learn from her past mistakes.

Honestly, I would like the two to talk everything out and put it all behind them. Part of why I love Rogue is she's the former villain who did a truly horrible thing to Carol and not only felt sorry for what she did, it guided her to being a better hero. I also hate thinking of Carol as a victim during that encounter. She's come a long way since then too. They both have, and should be proud of their accomplishments.
