Anna Marie: Rogue Appreciation 2019

[Havok83]

Bravo, that and I just say, Rogue she was increasingly advanced in control, and Hope proved to be very mediocre handling multiple powers, while Rogue we know is excellent in January, and does not wear out when she does, Hope yes, where You see Hope is super limited, so that list is just crap, and hopefully Hickman notices, and gives the southern respect it deserves.

Was Rogue able to manipulate the powers of all the latent mutants across the globe that existed post-M-Day by activating their X-genes? You keep focusing on mimicry but thats not what Hope is listed as an omega for. Mimicry is her primary power, but she has more than that. As a baby she healed Rogue from the Strain 88 virus and reset her powers and psyche. Her birth released a massive amount of psionic energy that destroyed Cerebro. She can jump start mutant powers and stabilize them, which we saw her do in Generation Hope. It was theorized that she could subconciously enhance other mutant's powers in one of her earlier appearances coming back to present day. She lacks skill and experience but she's been portrayed as extremely powerful since her very first appearance. Even with her mimcry, she was able to mimic every mutant on Utopia simultaneously and defeat Bastion and destroy his impenetrable dome that even the FF, Avengers and Dr. Strange couldnt breach.

As an omega, she has unmeasurable potential. She hasnt had much character development since Generation Hope so there is still alot about her abilities that is unknown. Most writers tend to focus on guns in terms of how she is utilized for combat and is rarely put in situations where she would need to test the limits of her powers. Again thats bc she's largely been MIA for years post AvX, but only now becoming relevant again
