Brood

Los Brood son una raza ficticia de seres extraterrestres con aspecto parecido a insectos que aparecen en las historietas publicadas por la Marvel Comics, especiamente en Uncanny X-Men. Creados por el escritor Chris Claremont y el artista Dave Cockrum, aparecieron por primera vez en Uncanny X-Men #155 (marzo de 1982). Su aparición en Amalgam Comics fue en The Exciting X-Patrol #1 en 1997.

Los Brood poseen alas, dentadura conformada por colmillos y una cola con un aguijón. Tienen una mentalidad de colmena y siguen ciegamente a una reina. Para reproducirse, deben infectar a otras razas con sus huevos. En la serie Planet Hulk un miembro de esta raza es parte del equipo de Hulk.

Claremont ha dicho que se inspiró en los xenoformos de la película de 1979, Alien, el octavo pasajero, pero curiosamente los Brood aparecieron antes de que la sociedad de colmena de los xenoformos fuera introducida en la secuela Aliens, el regreso.
