Marie-Ange Colbert
Born into the pages of Firestar #2 in 1986, Marie-Ange Colbert arrived at the dawn of the Copper Age as a figure whose loyalties and affiliations would prove fascinatingly complex — a member of the Hellfire Club, the Hellions, the Sentinels, and the X-Men over the course of a career now spanning nearly four decades. She's most at home in the pages of New Mutants and Firestar, keeping vivid company with the likes of Tarot, Catseye, and Jetstream — a constellation of characters that speaks to some of Marvel's most memorable mutant ensemble storytelling. With 31 catalog appearances and two collector-recognized key issues to her name, she's a rewarding deep-dive for fans who love the layered, morally textured corners of the Marvel Universe that the Copper Age did so brilliantly. If you're tracing the tangled web of mutant allegiances from the '80s onward, Marie-Ange Colbert is absolutely worth seeking out.
