The character first appeared in Captain America vol. 5 #12 in April 2006, created by writer Ed Brubaker and artist Steve Epting. Marynx is a mutant with the ability to manipulate gravity. This power allows her to increase or decrease the gravitational pull on herself or others, enabling flight, increased strength, or crushing opponents.

Her origins are tied to the mutant gene, a rare genetic mutation that grants individuals superhuman abilities. Marynx's specific mutation manifested during her adolescence, leading to a period of confusion and isolation. She was eventually recruited by the X-Men, a team of mutants dedicated to protecting a world that fears and hates them. Within the X-Men, she found a sense of belonging and purpose, honing her powers under the guidance of experienced mentors.

Marynx has been depicted as a capable combatant, often utilizing her gravity manipulation in creative ways to overcome adversaries. Her personality is generally portrayed as determined and resilient, though she has experienced moments of self-doubt due to the challenges of controlling her formidable powers. Her story arcs have often explored themes of identity, responsibility, and the struggle for acceptance in a world that discriminates against mutants. She has interacted with various Marvel heroes and villains, contributing to several significant storylines within the mutant corner of the Marvel Universe. Her continued presence in comic book narratives suggests her ongoing importance as a developing character.
