Moira X

A pivotal and enigmatic figure in the Krakoan era of mutantkind, Moira X emerges from the shadows of the conflict surrounding Nimrod and the Omega Sentinel, her true nature and agenda placing her at the volatile intersection of humanity's and mutantkind's competing futures.

Few Modern Age introductions have landed with quite the weight of Moira X., who stepped onto the page in 2021 courtesy of Jonathan Hickman and Francesco Mobili — arriving into a corner of the Marvel Universe already crackling with tension, sharing her earliest chapters with figures as formidable as Nimrod, Charles Xavier, Raven Darkhölme, and Omega Sentinel. With appearances spread across X-Men, Inferno, and Rise of the Powers of X, her footprint is compact but unmistakably consequential, and it's no surprise that collectors have flagged one of those appearances as a key issue worth tracking down. She may be a newcomer by the long sweep of Marvel history, but Moira X. arrived fully formed into one of the most ambitious eras of X-Men storytelling in years — a character whose small issue count carries outsized significance.
