Kitty's situation is quite similar to Rogue's in early issues of Excalibur
Apocalypse is responsible for Rogue's coma / Shaw is responsible for Kitty's drowning death
Rogue is awakened by psychic support (Rachel) / Kitty is resuscitated by psychic support (Emma)
Rogue takes revenge on Apocalypse and kills him with her bare hands (literally) / Kitty plans to take revenge on Shaw
At this rate, Rogue and Kitty should start a club
