I know Rogue makes a crack at Jan's age in UA #5. So Remender knows she is young. Acuna just can't seem to get Rogue right. He drew her very sexy and gorgeous in Legacy. So there is a huge disconnect somewhere.
That is ok, I was alittle lost in the talk, but really never seem that Imporant to me the who is older.
Indeed However, I agree upon that, Acuna indeed has much work to do on Rogue, Mainly the Factor of Removing that Hoodie as like I was BREATHING AGAIN, LOL, finally it was off and I hope Acuna KEEPS it off. It looks like Rogue got Much Younger Looking without it, the Hoodie just takes away to much from her.
But Yea, even when it gets removed, Acuna could work more on Rogue's Youthful looks that are needed. I will chalk this part up to her being dizzy and dazed after she woke.

As I said, his Rogue is too stiff, severe and angular. Rogue is young and fiery with big hair and big attitude like my icon. Acuna's Rogue looks old and hard. The big haired sassy brawler she is not in UA. I miss the brawler.
Edit: I agree CJStriker, that hood has to go along with those horrid boots. But even without the hood, that sad ponytail... Joe Mad, Clay Mann, Olivier Coipel, heck even Salva worked Rogue's ponytail.

I also didn't like Rogue telling Vision to not be upset at the person who murdered him.
I Enjoyed it cause to much we tend to Forget that she was Possessed all that time and the Ticking Time bomb from Vision was wholly not true by any length. It be like calling Jean Grey a Timb Bomb, but without the Phoenix that is not true. To me it is a good example of what blind anger does and how it achieves nothing in comics among heroes. The Schisms and Civil Wars have to end with Truth and remembering how each hero are really friends. That got lost over the past decade sadly, I am glad to see it FINALLY starting to turn around, just have to end the X-Men Schism and things be MUCH better IMO.
BTW, I don't think we talked much before Emma's Midriff, Good to talk to you.

Wanda and Quicksilver are age peers with the original Xmen. Maybe slightly older, given that
they were able to join the "no minors allowed" Avengers back in the Silver Age.
We know that Rogue is older than Kitty, but younger than Storm (and the O5). Very likely she's about the same age as Colossus ( one of the younger "New" Xmen).
At a guess, if Scarlet Witch is pushing 28 ( Marvel will never let Spider Man or the O5 hit 30) , Rogue is pushing 24.
I HATED IT !!! With the way I've been complaining about this, it was a foregone conclusion
Since I did not buy the issue, I can only criticize the parts I remember and what I remember is Quicksilver calling the cheetah-man "Boasty Von Braggington". Apparently Quicksilver's become a teen.
Also, I am not super familiar with 3/7 of the team (Sabertooth, Doctor Voodoo, Sam Wilson), so I have to wonder if it's a really good idea to disband the team when we've barely been introduced to them as a unit. I don't think most of the team members have ever interacted with each other, and I don't understand what's Doctor Voodoo's, Sabertooth's, and Captain America's motivation for looking for lost "teammates" they don't really know.
With the team separated, the story is already split in 6 directions. That's 6 stories to tell in 20-something comic book pages...I can already see that this story arc is going to take a LONG time to resolve
