Who is Gatecrasher?

Gatecrasher is the boisterous, larger-than-life leader of Technet, a mercenary team of interdimensional bounty hunters operating across the Marvel multiverse. She debuted in the pages of the British series Captain Britain, pursuing targets across realities for profit.

Few characters make an entrance quite like Gatecrasher — bursting onto the scene in 1985's Captain Britain #3, courtesy of the wickedly inventive team of Jamie Delano and Alan Davis, right in the thick of Marvel UK's Bronze Age golden run. Over four decades and 22 catalog appearances, this larger-than-life figure has kept remarkable company, sharing pages with Captain Britain himself (Brian Braddock), and a wonderfully eccentric roster including Yap "Bonebag," Ringtoss, and Thug. Gatecrasher's footprint spans Captain Britain, Excalibur, and the prestigious Captain Britain Omnibus — a testament to enduring relevance in the British corner of the Marvel Universe. With a key issue already to their name, this is exactly the kind of offbeat, distinctly Marvel UK creation that rewards the curious collector willing to dig past the obvious.
