Scanner

Scanner is a mutant who serves among Magneto's Acolytes, a fanatical group devoted to the mutant supremacist's cause. Her mutant ability allows her to project her consciousness outward to scout and surveil her surroundings remotely, making her a valuable intelligence asset for the team.

Scanner arrived in the thick of the Copper/Modern Age — debuting in X-Factor #92 in 1993, courtesy of Scott Lobdell and Joe Quesada — and immediately planted a flag in one of Marvel's most charged corners of mutantkind. As a card-carrying member of the Acolytes and the X-Men, Scanner occupies a genuinely rare position, moving through allegiances that most characters only ever stand on one side of. Her catalog footprint spans nearly three decades, with her most sustained presence across X-Men, The Uncanny X-Men, and Magneto: Dark Seduction, where she shares the page with heavy-hitters like Magneto, Colossus, and Frenzy. She may not be a household name, but for collectors who love the texture of the '90s X-universe — the factions, the ideological fault lines, the deep roster — Scanner is exactly the kind of find that rewards digging in.
