Lactuca the Knower
Lactuca the Knower is a character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. She first appeared in Planet-Size X-Men #1 (August 2021), created by Gerry Duggan and Pepe Larraz.
Lactuca is a mutant from Arakko and a member of the Great Ring of Arakko, acting a consultant on all matters related to the heavens. She assisted in the relocation of Arakko to Mars. When Genesis returns to Arakko and confronts the Great Ring for their perceived weakness in their conflict with the Eternals, Lactuca is initially neutral until it becomes clear that Genesis was using the Annihilation Staff to influence other members of the Ring. In the interest of balance, Lactuca teleports Storm and her allies away. In the ensuing civil war, Lactuca remains neutral.
