Venus Bluegenes

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Venus Bluegenes is a 2000 AD character. She is a Genetic Infantrywoman who has fought alongside Rogue and Friday on Nu-Earth. It turns out that she was previously Helm's girlfriend, but that she had a crush on Rogue. In a flashback strip, it is revealed that Venus secretly put extra padding and ballistic shielding inside Rogue's drop capsule, allowing Rogue to survive the initial drop.
