X-Men Legacy #226 – Supressing Fire (part 1 of 2)
(4 votes, average: 5.00 out of 5)Well those upset by the upheaval that Dark Reign is causing to Marvels merry mutants should be happy to see Rogue and Gambit return to the fold. With them AND Psylocke back on the team, it seems like old home week. Plus it seems Danger’s new outlook is holding thus far.
UTOPIA TIE-IN Rogue, Gambit and Danger go to join the X-Men in San Francisco, only to find it in flames. The Dark Avengers have come into town and are taking no prisoners. Wait, the whole problem is that they ARE taking prisoners.

Norman Osborn has the city of San Francisco in the palm of his hands and mutants are being forced to take sides. Will they side with Cyclops and the X-Men? Or go to Osborn and his Dark X-Men? What side will the returning mutants and one of the X-Men’s most powerful foes take? Part 1 (of 2)
UPDATE: OK the hype I quoted above is totally misleading. Neither Rogue nor Gambit (or even Danger) considered taking Osborn’s side for a millisecond. Also Rogue absorbed enough raw Olympian power from Ares to make next issue’s fight interesting. PLUS the return of Ariel from the Fallen Angels miniseries? REALLY?

Rogue and Gambit used to be some of my favorite X-men, but the last few years of storyline with them have kind of made them drop off the radar for me. But I'm picking this up since it's seems like a good crossover issue, and it was. Kind of a trip seeing Ares and Gambit do some damage in the 'Stro.
By the way, when did Danger become an X-man?
