After Antarctica, Rogue sunk into a deep depression, alternating between self-recrimination, retreating from the world into impossible fantasies and losing herself through use of her powers. She was so disturbed, in fact, that she went to Doctor Agee, a man of dubious credentials and motives, in order to be cured of her powers. Fortunately, because Agee’s idea of a cure was to turn his patients into grey grotesqueries and also because it was essentially government-funded genocide, Mystique prevented Rogue from going through with it and snapped her back to some semblance of sanity.
