I really like Rogue. I have the action figure (I have a collection
of women action figures from Star Trek, The X-men, and a couple
miscellaneous heroes. . .). I used to keep her at my desk at work
until someone told me she was valuable enough for someone to take.
As a borrowed alter-ego, she is great. Untouchable (which is tragic
and life-saving in different situations), practically indestructable.
Really hard to sneak up on. . . A great character for when I am
feeling a bit fragile.
She's earthy, complex, smart and talks like my Great-Aunt Cricket.
I wish she would be featured more in the cartoon and various comic book
story lines.
Often, she is drawn with even bigger boobs than Barbie, which is not
satisfactory. Seems that some think she has to balance her strength
with "femininity." I'd worry that breasts of such gigantic proportion
would make it difficult TO balance, much less fly. Good thing she's
stronger than anyone else on the planet. . .
