What If #66: Rogue possessed the power of Thor

[lordultimus]

"-has been reached!"

In this world, instead of brushing against Thor, Rogue completely drains him, leaving only a withered corpse. She goes on a rampage, killing Vision, Hawkeye, and Jocasta, switching between her own natural diction and Thor's until she regains control of herself and goes to bust Mystique and the Brotherhood out, showing that she can even wield Mjolnir.

Odin, sensing Thor's death, is unable to revoke Thor's power from Rogue, believing it to be some quirk of her biological power. He sends Balder, Sif, and the Warriors Three to go to Midgard while he grieves.





The plane explodes, with Rogue as the very distraught sole survivor. She is approached by Loki, promising to show her her true destiny.





Rogue and Loki invade Asgard with Loki's army of monsters, but the Asgardians have backup from Odin's warriors he sent to Earth, who brought the FF and the remaining Avengers. Fearing that the sight of Thor's past friends and allies might clear Rogue's mind, he takes her directly to Odin.

A bit of nitpicking here...doesn't Rogue also steal memories as well? Shouldn't she have known who Loki was from the beginning?

[lordultimus]

The memories were so overwhelming she couldn't sort them out properly.

Yeah. Thor is thousands of years old. Absorbing all his memories at once is like drinking from a fire hose.
