Who is Molly Hayes?

Molly Hayes is the youngest of the Runaways, a group of teenagers who discovered their parents were secretly a criminal organization called the Pride. A mutant with superhuman strength and durability, Molly fled alongside her new surrogate family to escape their villainous legacy.

Molly Hayes burst onto the Marvel scene in 2005 and has been a fan favorite of the Modern Age ever since β€” a spirited young figure whose adventures unfold alongside an unforgettable cast including Nico Minoru, Karolina Dean, Chase Stein, Victor Mancha, and the remarkable Old Lace. She's most at home in the pages of Runaways, that beloved series about kids confronting impossible truths, and her footprint stretches across tie-ins like Civil War: Young Avengers & Runaways and collected Runaways Digest editions. With two key-issue appearances to her name and a presence in the catalog spanning two full decades, Molly is proof that some characters introduced in the Modern Age earn a genuinely lasting place in readers' hearts β€” and on collectors' shelves.
