Team ups! Rogue and Ms. Marvel? BOOYA! Okay, getting ahead of myself. At the end of Legacy #269 we left Ms. Marvel falling into Magik's prison for capture Avengers which isn't exactly something that people would be happy to see. It is further explained at the beginning of this issue that each Avenger has their own small prison that forces them to suffer through a mental torture of the worst possible thing for them.

Rogue is definitely not happy to see this and after promising Ms. Marvel that she would stop the Phoenix Five if they ever let the power go to their head, decides it is time to step in no matter what the consequences. She struggles with demons, fights to Ms. Marvel and even gets to team with her briefly.

Sadly, Rogue is now going to experience her own torture...in the next issue of Legacy. Every single issue of this comic has brought a smile to my face since I started reading it and I can't help but be excited for the coming issues. It is sad to know that this is one of the titles that is going away with Marvel NOW....I hope it is replaced with something amazing.

I give X-Men Legacy a 9/10 this week.
