Who is the best Rogue in fiction published since 1980 and why is it Lyra "Silvertongue" Belacqua?
Maybe? I haven't actually read His Dark Materials.
But here's a hot take: your Rogue card is immediately revoked if you're an Oh So Special Chosen One. (Even if you're Locke Lamora? Yes, even then.) You can still be roguish, just not a Rogue. Rogues don't have prophecies about them, don't pull swords off stones, and don't inherit thrones (though they might steal a few). Rogues are nobodies, the salt of the earth, and they aren't destined to do anything. They make their own luck. Like this guy.

Did some variant covers of my fancomic, I try to study Hugo Pratt line arts (the creator of Corto Maltese). The results looks a bit cool I guess.
