Harpoon

Harpoon remains one of the most notorious Marauders due to his role in the Mutant Massacre, particularly his brutal killing of Colossus's younger sister Illyana during the Inferno crossover. While he's often treated as a generic Sinister enforcer in modern appearances, his energy harpoon powers and distinctive Inuit heritage make him stand out among the team's roster. Recent Krakoa-era stories have begun exploring whether even the most ruthless Marauders deserve redemption, though Harpoon's body count makes him a harder sell than reformed villains like Greycrow.
