The Badoon are a fictional reptilian alien species appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics.[1] The Badoon Exfulgence are notable for living under strict gender segregation, resulting in two separate societies; the Brotherhood of Badoon (ruled by a "Brother Royal") and the Sisterhood of Badoon (ruled by a Queen).

The Brotherhood live on the planet Moord[2] in the Lomora[3] star system, in the Milky Way, while the Sisterhood reside on the Badoon homeworld of Lotiara[2] (Capella II, also known as "Swampworld"[4]), 42.2 light years from Earth.
