Pirate Kitty

A swashbuckling Bronze Age curiosity born from the imagination of Chris Claremont and Dave Cockrum, Pirate Kitty made their debut in the pages of The Uncanny X-Men #153 in 1982 — a collector-significant issue that has kept this character on fans' radar for over four decades. Rooted in the rich, imaginative storytelling that defined Marvel's mutant corner of the Bronze Age, Pirate Kitty shares the page with some of the most iconic figures in comics history, from Wolverine and Colossus to Phoenix and Ororo Munroe. With appearances spanning all the way to 2023 and a nod in the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe: Alternate Universes, this is a character that hints at the wonderfully wild, boundary-pushing creativity the X-Men books were known for — a small but memorable piece of Marvel's vast tapestry well worth seeking out.
