Preview: Marauders Annual (2022) #1

Whoa...relax dude! Besides nobody has the guts to pull that trigger. I wish Marvel would try to prove me wrong.

I'd fear for Bishop, tbh. Some writer who waifu'd Kitty as a kid could swoop in, derail Bishop's character & break them up.

I must agree. Kitty's love interests usually don't end up doing too well.
I like their chemistry as friendly teammates like we saw in Marauders #4 when they rescued the man imprisoned by his wife.

Yeah I initially got over the dissolution of X-Factor until I released that pretty much every single title (including bad sellers like WoX) was getting a relaunch with Destiny of X.

On a positive note, this preview looks good!

I suspect some bright creature higher up the chain decided that Legion of X being a "mutant cop" book made X-Factor redundant. 😒

Ew no way, not Kate. Anyone but Privilege McKnow-it-all. It's bad enough that he's her subordinate in this series.

Bishop deserves an intense romance for once in his comics history. Black characters rarely get to play the love interest.

And Marvel is full of that kind of writer. At this point, it is better for your favorites to stay away from any kind of romance with her.

Do I sense a Mandingo, Jewish Princess pairing in the making?

Bishop's too young for her.

[Kitty&Piotr<3]

Looks good so far

I get the feeling because Colossus is single again, they'll rehash that relationship with Kate in IXM to counterbalance the chummy Mystique-Destiny pair.Though I could be wrong

That'd be the absolute worst thing imaginable for Pete. She left him at the altar.

He can do better and so can Bishop. Fingers crossed.

Agree, but I don't trust the writers, so let's keep those fingers crossed both he and Bishop dodge this bullet.

Looks more interesting than the previous Marauders

this looks real good. I LOVE the little details like bishop being -15. It just adds something thinking about the fact that in 15 or so years sliding scale however it's done time bishop will be a baby so his actual parent must be in the generation that exists now or at least the next few years. Be kind of interesting if Carmen from Cota who is a shapeshifter is Bishop mom.

I wonder who his other parent would be then. Maybe one of the newer new mutant characters Vita created.

I guess by the preview that Psylocke will be the one who hears Akihiro asking for help and that's how she'll end up joining the team. I'm curious if X-Factor's status will be addressed here
