Cain Marko is a regular human who was empowered by a gem belonging to the deity Cyttorak, becoming a literal human juggernaut. He possesses superhuman strength and durability, and is virtually immune to most physical attacks; his helmet also protects him from mental attacks. Although not a mutant, Juggernaut has been featured as a prominent member of the Brotherhood of Mutants. He is also the stepbrother of Professor X. Since his debut during the Silver Age of Comic Books, the character has appeared in over five decades of Marvel publications, featuring prominently in the X-Men titles and starring in two one-shot solo publications.

Juggernaut was played by Vinnie Jones in the film X-Men: The Last Stand (2006), by Ryan Reynolds in Deadpool 2 (2018), and by Aaron W. Reed in Deadpool & Wolverine (2024). In some adaptations (most notably the films), Marko is a mutant who was born with his powers, while in others they simply come from his costume.
