Lenore Zann, the voice actor behind Rogue in X-Men: The Animated Series, has reflected on what has changed since she recorded the character for the animated series.
Rogue’s voice has a lasting place in X-Men history
Zann’s performance helped define Rogue for viewers of the series, giving the character a distinctive presence within the animated X-Men cast. Her comments offer a look back at the work behind one of the most recognisable superhero cartoons of its era.
For arcade fans, the character is also closely connected with the wider history of X-Men games. The series’ enduring appeal continues to shape interest in arcade news and gaming history, from classic beat ’em ups to modern home cabinets.
