    In the past few weeks I've realized how incredibly under-represented Rogue is in reprints. If you're a new Rogue fan who wants to see her most classic moments you're out of luck - every one of her key issues is either not collected, only in black and white, or in obscure out-of-print collections. 
     
    With Rogue front and center in Legacy it seems time that Marvel put out a "Rogue Classic" volume like they have with Gambit, Deadpool, and Cable - or at least a Rogue Essentials black and white. Otherwise it's going to be YEARS before these issues wind up consistently in Marvel Masterworks and per-title Classics.
     
    What would you choose? Some issues I'd consider: 
    - Her first appearance in Avengers Annual #10 
    - Her first X-Men appearance in Uncanny #158 
    - Her joining the X-Men in #171 (the next few issues are already collected in Wolverine reprints) 
    - Her almost being de-powered in UXM #185 (and the story leading up to it) 
    - Her fight with Carol Danvers in Uncanny #269 and subsequent affair with Magneto 
    - Her date with Gambit in X-Men #24
      
    What else?  Anything prior to UXM #400 and XMv2 2000 is relatively under-collected. Are her mini-series worth re-collecting? I don't remember the first one being very good.
