Magdalene is a fictional character, a member of the Avengers from Marvel Comics. She first appeared in Avengers #343 (January 1992), and was created by Bob Harras, Steve Epting, and Tom Palmer.
Magdalene was a member of the Avengers in an alternate timeline, a world which was destroyed by an alternate version of Sersi. As a result, she joined the Gatherers, a group formed by Proctor, an alternate version of Dane Whitman, known in the Mainstream Marvel Universe as the Black Knight. The purpose of the Gatherers was to destroy every universe's version of Sersi, so that she could no longer be a threat.
When Proctor, in his single-mindedness, attempted to destroy Sersi and the Avengers of Earth-616 at the cost of the Gatherers' lives, Magdalene reluctantly joined forces with the Avengers, along with her lover, the Swordsman. After a number of months living with the Avengers Magdalene and Swordsman decided to leave Earth-616 with the Squadron Supreme, for an as-yet unknown reality.
Magdalene was later identified as one of the 142 registered superheroes on the cover of the comic book Avengers: The Initiative #1, contradicting her departure from Earth.
Magdelene has superhuman strength and stamina, and is armed with a power-lance which fires energy bolts and can open space warps.
