Marauders (Marvel Comics, 2019–2023)
Marvel’s Marauders series sails into the X-Men line as one of the defining titles of the Krakoa era, blending mutant politics, globe-trotting adventure, and high-seas swagger into a unique team-driven narrative. Positioned outside the traditional superhero battlefield, the book follows a crew operating under the Hellfire Trading Company banner — rescuing stranded mutants, navigating international tensions, and shaping the reach of mutant nationhood beyond Krakoa’s shores. The series balances action and diplomacy with character-focused storytelling, giving major spotlight time to fan-favorite mutants while expanding the cultural and logistical scope of the mutant world.
The first volume centers on Kate Pryde as the Red Queen commanding the Marauder vessel alongside Emma Frost, Iceman, Storm, Bishop, and Pyro, delivering a mix of espionage, rescue operations, and political maneuvering across 27 issues. A second volume relaunches the concept with a new direction, pushing the team into cosmic and historical exploration tied to mutant legacy and origins, featuring a different roster and running 12 issues.
