More like; "I'm expanding my horizons a little bit and giving ladyboys a good hard look". "Here's one I met named Brana. It just flew in from up North."

Absorbing Thor's power also doesn't equate to being "worthy", does it? Meaning she'll get his strength and not be able to use Mjolnir.
Doesn't work like that.
Check the Mephisto versus X-Men series.
When Classic Rogue touched a person long enough to put them under for any length of time, she absorbed, in practical terms, EVERYTHING that made that person ... them. As I described in another thread (think it was the "Who Can Lift Mjolnir" one by carver9), Rogue was actually able to collect the very souls of her teammates, at least what Marvel Comics Mephisto considers the soul of a person. He was able to take the entire X-Men team by simply taking her at that point because she CONTAINED all the rest.
Rogue with Thor's power, at least if she succeeds at a knockout (like she did in her very first appearance, despite the rest of the Avengers trying to prevent her from doing that to him), for however long the effects last, essentially has Thor "in" her.
It's not all that unlike Hulk using Thor's own hand to beat him senseless with Mjolnir
(see that infamous scan that keeps appearing in the "ownage" thread).

I'll have to disagree.
"Worthiness" is not Thor's power. It's a limitation given to Mjolnir (not Thor, mind you) by Odin as a means to select proper wielders for the weapon to exclude those found "unworthy" based on their character. Even if Rogue's power steals everything about Thor, she'd still also be Rogue. W/c should make her unworthy.
I'll admit that I never read their first encounter prior to the scan, but since she HAS absorbed Thor before, was she able to use Mjolnir in that instance?

She didn't try. This was Rogue JUST starting out, and the Avengers more or less blitzed her at that point. Spider-Woman used a venom blast against her that had no effect, but Vision attacked her as well and she knew his density alteration ability would be used. Rogue had the option of absorbing more power from Thor in the hopes of taking the punishment or simply using him as a shield. She chose the latter and was occupied fighting the rest of the Avengers until it was time for her to go.
Originally posted by bluewaterriderInteresting thoughts, and kudos for referencing Mephisto Vs. storyline. But a mind-controlled Rogue absorbed a possessed Thor's power in Contest of Champions II and she couldn't lift Mjolnir.
