Marauders #3 Preview

[Maestroneto]

Everything about those pages is so...HAWTT!!!
We know who Emma has in her Court. We have a pretty good guess about Shaw's choices...I wonder who will Kate choose as her second and third?

Bishop and Iceman probably

[Mutant X]

I saw a Game of Throne opening in those first pages.

Kitty and Lockheed are canonically GoT fans

Bishop and Iceman probably

lol, it's almost a rule now that that all the Bishop's have to be gay, Christian (white), Shinobi (black), and Bobby (red).

This really is becoming the gayest book in all of Marvel comics now!

Cheers to that!!! #representation

I love Marauders so much, this is the "Hellfire" book I always wanted, it's going to be so much fun!

Hmmm this is most very much interesting. Seems that Shinobi Shaw is possibly back.

And what’s this??? Sebastian being Nice to others by saying “Good Day”???

Damn.... I’m shocked.

[AbnormallyNormal]

Ah so the Black Bishop will be Shinobi Shaw. Cool

Weird that the cover shows characters like ready to kill him as he emerges from the egg lmao... I mean is he really the "worst" mutant on Krakoa? Come on now.

Well that's a good choice, we'll see how it goes. I'm almost rooting for the Shaws/"Black" side of the new Hellfire Trading Company. It is 2 against 1 after all, and Emma has been quite the bully towards Sebastian.

I really do appreciate how they've actually mapped out the various locations and strongholds on Krakoa. The House of M, The Cradle, Bar Sinister, Hellfire Bay

It just goes to show that a lot more thought and we effort went into designing Krakoa as a setting than we ever got for Genosha, Utopia or New Tian

Is there a page missing Im confused.

Kinda funny how many of the important places are associated with villains or former villains.

Same, I'm like how the hell does EVERYONE else seem to know what's going on...then I read literally the top of the link!! I was definitely embarrassed.

Yeah, where are Ororo and Kurt’s palaces? Not that I can actually see either of them wanting a palace mind, but you get the gist.

And Shinobi Shaw, but still no Destiny... Mystique’s blood pressure must be near boiling point by now. She’s gonna blow like Krakatoa when she goes.

Bishop and Iceman probably

We'll see but I don't like that and I doubt it mostly because Duggan hinted Storm and Iceman will become "alarmed" about aspects of Kate's behavior. So to me, I feel like her role as "Red Queen" will be something Ororo/Bishop/Bobby are more cautious about. Of the three I would consider Bishop the most open-minded towards it though probably.

As for who else she could pick and how would it even work out logistically given she's already travelling with these others... yeah good questions but still. I'd be disappointed honestly if it was as simplistic as "pick the ones she's already with even if their personalities don't make any sense at all in those roles".

Yeah I can't wait to get some Raven focus when it comes in XMen

The whole "why are these locations about villains" well you could easily view it as a nod to how there is implicit tension between the villains and the other mutants so a need for physical distance, or self-separation even quasi "exile" of a kind. Sort of a way to keep the peace. Maybe also a nod to the fact they tend to be more independent characters and are accustomed to "their own" residences unlike most of the XMen who live more communally generally.

Why would Sebastian trust Shinobi?
