X-Corp is a 2021 Marvel comic book series, written by Tini Howard, with art by Alberto Foche and Valentine De Landro and covers by David Aja, as part of the Reign of X event.Mutantkind is safe on Krakoa. As the Reign of X continues, what are the wants of the mutants who have everything? Leading the charge is X-CORPORATION, headed by CXOs Monet St. Croix and Warren Worthington III, a duo as cutthroat and ruthless in the boardroom as they are on a battlefield. But X-Corp needs more than just its figureheads.

comment
Expendable Clone: Monet calls Jamie's dupes "disposables," but Jamie disagrees. When she allows the Savage Land manufacturing plant to be blown up (since it was a choice between getting to the plant or getting to Angel), Jamie calls her out on letting all those dupes die — because they also held a week's worth of information that he can't reabsorb now. Happens again with the dupe who went home to witness Jamie and Layla's son's first steps. When he gets blown up before he can be reabsorbed, Jamie is mostly upset that the memories are lost.

comment
Hulking Out: Monet explains more about how her transformations into Penance work — she tends to transform whenever she loses her temper and turning into Penance makes telepathy more difficult. Angel, too, can transform into his Archangel form, but he tends to keep calm better, usually only transforming his wings into metal.

comment
Out-Gambitted: The first issue has Brazilian businessman Jean-Pierre Kol trying to extort more money out of X-Corp by threatening their Savage Land manufacturing plant. He even has it blown up, saying that people will blame the mutants for the "new crater" and he will tie them up with litigation until their money dries up. And then Monet arrives with X-Corp's new flying island headquarters, causing the media to immediately focus on that, while blaming the explosion on anti-mutant militants, thus dismantling Kol's plan completely.

Red Oni, Blue Oni: Monet is Red to Warren's Blue - she can have an explosive temper whereas he is more calm and stoic. Not to mention both of their alternate forms are red and blue respectively.

Technopath: This is Trinary's role on the board — and in the first issue, she uses it to discover that someone delivered ransomware to the Savage Land drug manufacturing plant. Madrox asks if she can, you know, flirt with the malware.

Airborne Aircraft Carrier: X-Corp's new HQ is an airborn aircraft island. They were supposed to have a big rollout when they revealed it to the public, but Monet just decides to use it to rescue Angel instead.

comment
"X" Makes Anything Cool: X-Corp refers to its CEOs as CXOs, where the X stands for X-ecutive. A newspaper clipping in the first issue promises to explore who will benefit from X-Corp's X-pansion.

Cool Horse: Jean-Pierre Kol has an entire stable of strange horses (including one that looks on fire and one that's mechanical). His horse races, then, aren't normal — they feature the horses attacking each other.

Corrupt Corporate Executive
 X-Corp (Comic Book) / int_cbe687ab
comment
Corrupt Corporate Executive: Monet and Warren avert this, but not the people they deal with. The first issue provides the example of Jean-Pierre Kol, a Brazilian businessman and former owner of Noblesse Pharmaceuticals before he sold it to X-Corp. When Angel meets with him, Kol explains that now that Krakoa has been revealed, he wants more money for his company, even though he already sold it — and if they do not agree, he will tie them up with litigation about their Savage Land drug manufacturing plant. Which he then blows up.
