Molly Hayes: The Future of the X-Men?

Molly Hayes from Runaways

Molly Hayes (a.k.a. Princess Powerful, a.k.a. Bruiser) is the youngest member of the Runaways, a group of mostly-teenagers who discovered the criminal activities of their parents—known collectively as The Pride—and decided to leave home forever. Unlike the rest of the technically unnamed team’s original members—who gained their abilities through magic, technology, alien parentage, and a psychic link to a dinosaur—Molly was born a mutant. Although her feelings on Wolverine and the known mutant population vary wildly, one must ask the question: Is Molly Hayes the future of the X-Men?
