August 30, 2021

Marauders #23 feels like it should be a much-needed attempt to right the series in the wake of the Hellfire Gala. Following the Kate Pryde-driven first act, Marauders has been an unfocused series searching for direction. Lacking a central plotline beyond the vague idea of Hellfire Company ...

REVIEW: Marauders #16: Sweet Sweet Revenge

There’s been a lot going on for our friends, so it’s understandable that Kate Pryde had to put her promise to kill—or at least significantly fuck up—Sebastian Shaw on hold. But now that the swords have settled, the Red and White Queens can get down to business in Marauders #16.

Marauders #11 Buries Kate Pryde’s Jewish Legacy

August 21, 2020

Kitty Pryde has been a favorite character for Jewish superhero fans since her inception, but Marauders #11 insults everything about her identity. Created by John Byrne and Chris Claremont in 1980, Kitty is notably one of the few Marvel characters who has been depicted as Jewish since her ...
