A Rogue Chronology Project

I have decided to chronicle my comic book collection.

There are a few reasons for this. The first and foremost reason being that it's a really good reason to reread my collection. Another reason is because my collection revolves around the Southern Belle herself, Rogue.

For years I have followed Rogue and starting late, I have followed the wonderful chronology found at Shrine to the Green Goddess. This site is amazing and has been around for as long as I have been reading comic books. Every time I have become frustrated with the storyline and stopped reading for a while just to be drawn back in, usually by some awesome Humberto Ramos art, I have gone to this list to catch myself up to the current storyline.

I have decided to do a couple of things differently though. I have found placements of flashbacks and memories and time lines somewhat confusing and although they make sense to add in to certain areas, I have opted out of this and my chronology is based on publishing date alone. This way I can read the comics as though I had been reading them since Rogue's first appearance in 1981 (some years before I was even born).

I am also including a (hopefully) daily post devoted to each issue that will include: the Issue Name, Publishing Date, a quick Rogue Highlight within the comic (if any), a Synopsis, any Extra Information, any Contradictions with previous information from previous comics, Powers Rogue has absorbed, and finally; whether or not the issue is considered a Key Issue.

Each comic on the Chronology page will be linked to the corresponding post.

I imagine this will take a while to get through, considering how long it took to date every comic in the chronology.

So I guess this is turning into a Chronology Project, which I know there are a few of out there, but I wanted something a little more in depth than just a list. Rogue's character in general really interests me and part of this is to chronicle her character and history, giving me a better understanding of her as a whole.

So let's see where this takes me, shall we?
