Destiny of X, dubbed the "Second Age of Krakoa," is on the horizon. Promising to reimagine the world of mutants just like House of X and Powers of X did back in 2019 courtesy of writer Jonathan Hickman, the event will include a number of new X-Men titles such as Kieron Gillen and Lucas Werneck’s Immortal X-Men, and exciting creative team changes for continuing hit titles such as Marauders!
Launching with a brand-new #1, writer Steve Orlando will take over the mutant seafaring series Marauders alongside rising star artist Eleonora Carlini this March. Together they’ll chart a new course for this thrilling title that has left a unique mark on the mutant mythos with its high seas action and cutthroat storytelling. The first adventure of Orlando’s run will take place a little sooner, though, in next month’s Marauders Annual #1 where he’ll be joined by artist Crees Lee.
Captain Pryde and the Marauders are rededicating themselves to rescuing mutants, wherever they may be, and no matter how dangerous the odds against them are. Joining Kate and Bishop will be Psylocke, Daken, Aurora, Tempo, and Somnus. However, against her better judgment, Pryde comes face-to-face with the final Marauder, someone no fan will see coming but may be the Marauders’ only chance to unravel a mystery stretching two billion years into the past.
"Taking the helm of Marauders is easily the most exciting moment of my career, especially when it's my first-ever ongoing not just on Krakoa, but at Marvel in general," Orlando says. "Exploding out of the team's already-amazing adventures as part of Hellfire Trading, Captain Pryde's new crew of Marauders will stop at nothing to bring endangered mutants to safety -- to always go where they're needed, not where they're wanted. To mutant rescue, wherever it calls them!"
Marauders #1 arrives on March 30, while Marauders Annual #1 will hit stands on January 12.
