Contest of Champions II
The Brood abducts several heroes while posing as a benevolent species willing to give the heroes access to advanced technology after competing against each other in a series of contests. However, in reality, the Brood intended to use Rogue, who had been infested with a Brood Queen, to absorb the powers of the contest winners and become truly unstoppable. Fortunately, Iron Man—one of the first heroes to be defeated—organized the other 'losers' into a resistance against the Brood, realizing that the Brood had been feeding the heroes drugged food to amplify aggression; Iron Man's suit had automatically activated its life support system to keep him from being affected. Although the Queen had already absorbed the powers and skills of Captain America, Thor, the Hulk, Spider-Man, Jean Grey and the Scarlet Witch, the remaining heroes managed to defeat her. The Brood Queen symbiote was subsequently extracted from Rogue with the aid of Carol Danvers and Kitty Pryde. Kitty's powers meaning that she couldn't be used as a host, she and Carol had been locked away from the moment the contest began, and, after confirming that Rogue was cured, the heroes returned home.
