Starjammers: The 'Starjammers' are the name Christopher Summers (long-lost father of Scott and Alex) and his friends took after freeing themselves from slavery in Madripoor. They are smugglers, pirates, and thieves, currently at war with another leading member of Lowtown's underworld. Despite Scott's issues with his father, the Starjammers and the X-Men have found themselves working together on several occasions, usually involved in countering child slavery rings operating out of Madripoor. The 'Jammers have also used an old pirating legend "Eric the Red" as a cover for their activities. The Starjammer's crew is as follows: Corsair/Christopher Summers, former pilot; Badri Raza, former member of the Indian army and a specialist in counter-insurgency work; Hepzibah Jones, an American tourist and felineoid mutant who fell afoul of Madripoor's white slave trade and Chod, a very large reptilian mutant of unknown origin, who had been used for his physical strength since childhood.
