X-Men: 10 Times Rogue Stole Another Hero's Powers

10. Sunfire

When the intrepid Anna Marie aka Rogue first appeared in the comics, she was not part of Professor Xavier's school for gifted youngsters. Instead, she was taken into the Brotherhood of Mutants by the shape-shifting Mystique. During this time Rogue teamed up with Sunfire, a mutant with powers equal to the sun itself.

Sunfire and Rogue were working with the Brotherhood of Mutants to gather tons of Adamantium. This is the indestructible metal that coats Wolverine's skeleton. The Brotherhood of Mutants wanted it to create an army of invincible samurai.

The plan failed and all memory of the deal was wiped from the minds of everyone involved except the mutant known as Lady Deathstrike. She regained her memory and fought Sunfire and Rogue, cutting off Sunfire's legs and nearly killing him.

Sunfire begged Rogue to take his powers to finish the fight against Lady Deathstrike. At first, Rogue only wanted to use a finger to absorb his powers, as to not kill the already weakened mutant.

Yet shockingly Blindspot pushed Rogue on top of Sunfire giving her not only his powers but his personality as well. Rogue eventually saved the day with Sunfire's powers, but it almost killed both of them. This once again showed the immense risks of using Rogue's powers.
