X-Man of the Week is... Rogue.
No she doesn't have a first name despite that stupid lie from the movies. She is a southern belle with a dark past. Many people (surprisingly) don't know about her past. She has a few powers...
Super human strength, flight, and the ability to absorb other mutants powers. In the movies she only have the absorbing power because she hadn't absorbed the powers from Marvel. See Rogue was with Mystique and was a baddie and she had Rogue latch onto Ms. Marvel until Rogue absorbed all of her powers. Marvel was down and Rogue was up.
She's a great character because while she is one of the most beautiful characters, she can't touch another because of her "powers." I love the contrast of a power being a hinderance and a blockade from the rest of the world. She sorta contrasts Beast who can touch, yet no one would want to touch him. Odd the way those things work out.
Nonetheless, here's to the mutant of the week: Rogue.

So in the original story Rogue's real name was not Marie??? I don't know what's real anymore. Lies, lies!
