☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn X-Men: Alterniverse Visions #nn, writer Simon Furman and artist John Royle explore a stunning "What If?" scenario where Rogue, after absorbing Thor during her clash with the Avengers, chooses a path of power and purpose beyond her usual struggles. With vivid colors by Tom Smith and dynamic inks by Bambos Georgiou, this 1996 Marvel tale imagines a world where Rogue becomes a new kind of thunder goddess—tempted by Loki and the Brotherhood, yet driven by a heroic resolve. The cover by Luciano Lima and Joe Pimentel captures her thunderous transformation in striking detail.
In this gripping alternate take, Wolverine remains a prisoner of Alpha Flight after the Canadian government intercepts the X-Men during their rescue attempt. Stranded and forced to choose sides, he finds himself alongside Guardian, Sasquatch, and the others as they confront a terrifying threat: a Mastermind-controlled Jean Grey on the brink of becoming Dark Phoenix.
In "What If Storm Stayed a Thief?", a young Ororo, shaped by the streets of Cairo and guided by the grifter Herman Hassel, builds a life of cunning and stealth in New York—until a prison cell triggers her powers and sets her on a collision course with the X-Men. When she steals from the team, their arrival at Hassel’s hideout ignites a storm of fury, leading her to confront the X-Men at their mansion, where Professor X offers her a place among them—though she walks away, choosing her own path.
In an alternate reality where Rogue absorbs Thor’s full power during a clash with the Avengers, she must navigate the weight of godhood—tempted by Loki’s schemes, the Brotherhood’s chaos, and the shadow of Mephisto’s influence. As she stands among Asgard’s pantheon and Earth’s mightiest heroes, Rogue must decide what it means to wield thunder not as a weapon, but as a legacy.
In a grim alternate timeline where Apocalypse fails to cure Professor X from Stryfe’s technovirus, the X-Men face annihilation as their leader falls and the villains seize control. With Cyclops and Jean Grey lost to the moon’s deadly void, the surviving mutants—led by Forge—rally for one final stand against Stryfe and Apocalypse, who now battle over a time vortex machine. As the fate of mutantkind hangs in the balance, a desperate choice forces Stryfe to confront his past and sacrifice everything for a future he never believed in.
In a world where Logan never became Wolverine, a haunted past resurfaces when he must hunt down Guy Desjardins—the man who underwent the Weapon X procedure and slaughtered Alpha Flight. With the Watcher observing and the Professor, Hines, and Dr. Cornelius pulling strings from the shadows, Logan confronts the monstrous legacy of the program, even as familiar faces like Cyclops, Storm, and Rogue appear in fleeting cameos.
