Cain Marko

Character from Marvel Comics by Marvel Entertainment

An unstoppable human battering ram empowered by the Crimson Gem of Cyttorak — Professor X's embittered stepbrother, whose rage is literally impossible to halt once he starts moving.

Cain Marko hated his stepbrother Charles Xavier long before either of them had power. Their father favored Charles, and Cain responded with the only language he understood — violence. The Crimson Gem of Cyttorak gave him the power to match his rage: once he starts moving, nothing in the physical universe can stop him. He is not technically a mutant — his power is mystical — which adds insult to injury when the X-Men treat him as their problem. He has oscillated between villain and reluctant hero, but his default state is angry, drunk, and looking for something to hit.

Appearance

Absolutely massive — a wall of muscle encased in rust-red armor with a distinctive dome helmet that protects him from psychic attacks. The helmet is riveted and featureless except for eye slits, making him look like a siege engine given legs. Without the helmet, he is a huge, square-jawed man with close-cropped brown hair and small, angry eyes. The ground cracks under his footsteps.

Also known as: Cain Marko, Juggernaut, The Juggernaut
