I can't wait!!! I'm loving the premise. I'm loving the characters. I'm loving these characters being written by Duggan.

Well, I dug it. A lot of fun and an intriguing flashback to the timejump.
And spoilers:end of spoilers
Ororo gets a word in re: the team name.
Well I know a lot of people are waiting to hear if Marauders is worth getting for Storm so to put it simply:
If you're only interested in getting the book for Storm and don't really care for anyone else there and despise Kitty, or don't care about the whole Dawn of X/Krakoa story then probably skip this issue.
If you're interested in the premise, want to see how the team forms, read pretty great or at least spot on character dialog (including Storm but only for a bit admittedly) then this issue can't dissappint. The premise for Kitty being the focus for this issue is pretty interesting and makes a lot of sense, snd best of all I really didn't get any Gold vibes, sure its Kitty heavy but we all knew that and the writer makes it clear the focus will spread.
Was also very in keeping with Ororo's mission statement in X-Men #1.
Tune into Marauders #1 to see Storm being used as Kitty’s boat engine!
I loved it! i F(#(#ING LOVED it. Yes this issue is kitty centered but it makes sense but the writing is so good. All the characters sound like themselves. Storm freely controlling the wave the boat was riding on was really cool to see. This book is definitely for me. lol. I loved this more than X-men #1. So fun and colorful.
Don't let anyone else hold the candle that lights the way to your future because only you can sustain the flame.

This sounds good. I’ll pick this up. I’m only getting the title for Storm but I had no expectations for her based on Duggan’s interview so I’m not disappointed with reading that she didn’t get to do much this issue. Plus if Duggan is looking to explore her as a black ops powerhouse for this title I can live with that . I just hope it’s not 6 months of waiting for Storm to get fair panel time and development. Will share my thoughts after I pick it up.
I just read the book and can I say it was NOTHING like Gold.
Spoilers ahead:
1. Kitty was freaking badass it was actually pretty cool to see her written like this.
2. Ororo creating the massive wave to propel the ship along: AMAZING!!!
3. Ororo being on the team to support Kate made sense unlike her reasons for being in gold.
4. The best part of the issue was her telling Kate that she doesnt F@CK with Emma!!!!! Ororo finally not falling for her bull!
Great issue!!

Marauders #1 was decent but the rationale for including Storm feels pretty flimsy. She’s part of the ruling council. Considering how many mutants are around, she really shouldn’t be running around on the high seas when she has a nation to run. We’ll see how Duggan handles her, but she feels a bit token here as she so often does. I want a Storm with a strong point of view and clear personal objectives. Too often she just floats around with no real reason for being wherever she ends up.
