I am so gutted this is Duggan's last issue. His writing has been amazing on this book.

Looks real good.
Where do you get "100" ? Back when Rogue had the abilities taken from Carol, Rogue could lift 50 tons. You are now saying Rogue can lift 5000 tons? :-p
Funny, 20 years ago, back when Kurt Busiek was just starting out writing the Avengers, Beast put Carol though a battery of tests to see why she no longer had her Binary form!
Looks like Beast didnt invite his best bud to New Tian. Maybe Emma has a rule against non-mutants. I always wanted to have Simon's physiology altered to have the X-Gene due to being kind of merged with Rogue. I supposed there's still time for that to happen.
The "100x" came from the fact that Wonder Man is far stronger than Captain Marvel. He can contend with beasts like Odinson and no-sell fights from Red Hulk and Namor. I'd put him up there with Blue Marvel, Sentry, & Hyperion.
Damn I'm going to miss Duggan. Deadpool laughs, and Rogue aside, did we see an actual glimpse of Beast when he was likable?! Wonders never cease.
Current Pull: Amazing Spider-Man and Domino
Bunn for Deadpool's Main Book!
IMO, I think Rogue should have taken Hank up on taking those tests. Not only to determend her power level but to see if it is permanent and to see what long term exposure to Simon may have changed her . Also to see if her original power level is back to it's "Mature level" which it was allowed to develop back in "Legacy".
She should be back to normal: Deadpool's healing factor cured her M-pox. As for keeping Simon's powers, I guess she perma-absorbed them. She's basically at full strength.
Would have no complaints about Hank and Simon joining the team after Secret Empire if the other books aren't using them.
Wonder Man had problems with 50 000 tons but he was strong enough to lift this for some time

Beast "Amazing it took Rogue this long to slap Deadpool. That skin on skin contact made it possible"
Wonder Man "I'd give ever dollar I own to remember it like that"
Lol Wonder Man needs brain-bleach to erase the RoguePool smooch-off.
I read that bit and very loudly said, "Me too, Simon!!" HA.
Duggan is a matter troller, I'll give some serious props on that count. Thankfully he's a great story teller as well. Can't remember the last time a writer could cheese me off and yet keep me coming back for more, tbh....
Well, I'm not exactly sure why it should have been 'obvious' that deadpool' healing factor could short circuit a battery, but it should have been obvious to try that to cure the m-pox. Seriously, I assumed it had been tried off panel during by the eight month gap and didn't work for whatever fake science reason. This was the first time? Didn't try with deadpool or OML or Laura, etc...?
Maybe it was more of a quick fix thing, like he was leaving the book and they didn't want Rogue to still have the M-Pox thing so...odd that Beast seems to be welcomed back into the fold without any anger or whatever...they'll probably just use Secret Empire to fix everything X-related...
I think Marvel have realised that IVX was a bad idea and so are using secret empire to change that... Emma's already ditched that awful costume and the X-editors said she wasn't regarded as a villain as much... Clearly the same has happened to Beast too who looks to be appearing in Astonishing X-Men alongside Rogue.
