Rogue Sun
Rogue Sun is the title of an American superhero comic book series created by Ryan Parrott and Abel Mesquita. It is published by Image Comics as part of the Massive-Verse, a shared superhero universe curated by Kyle Higgins.
The series focuses on Dylan Siegel, a teenager who inherits the mantle of Rogue Sun, a solar-powered superhero, upon the death of his estranged father, Marcus Bell. Dylan must navigate the responsibilities and dangers that come with wielding the ancient power, while also grappling with his complicated relationship with his father's legacy and the supernatural threats that emerge in New Orleans.
The Rogue Sun mantle grants Dylan powers related to the sun, including enhanced strength, flight, and energy projection. However, the power is temporary and only manifests during specific hours, adding a strategic element to his superhero activities. He is also burdened by the previous Rogue Sun's mistakes and enemies, leading to conflicts with both new and established villains within the Massive-Verse.
The comic explores themes of family, responsibility, legacy, and the burden of inherited power. Dylan's personal struggles and growth are central to the narrative, as he learns to control his abilities and define his own identity as Rogue Sun.
The series is known for its blend of superhero action, supernatural horror, and teenage drama. It also features connections and crossovers with other titles in the Massive-Verse, further enriching the shared universe.
