Fantastic Four #244

Johnny Storm’s longtime on again off again girlfriend becomes the new Herald of Galactus and leaves Earth and Humanity behind. She’s always sucked and her indifference to consigning alien worlds to doom seals it.

ROM: Spaceknight #32

This is the beginning of Rogue’s hero turn that eventually leads her to the X-Men and personal redemption. ROM sees no evil in her and she always takes good choices here. I’m honestly shocked it comes from this!

I always liked in the original 1982 “Tron” the villainous Master Control Program is more like a brutish mob thug than a typical sophisticated urbane AI.
