Captain Marvel Vol 7 #10

I wish I could read all this, but I am lazy.

24 days until Captain Marvel



Captain Marvel Vol 7 #12

In which Captain Marvel, who's been told by multiple people to not use her powers, uses her powers. And the more she uses her powers, the more damage she does to her brain.



Needless to say, she doesn't get away with it.​

Your deadpan sarcastic commentary is truly wonderful

Your deadpan sarcastic commentary is truly wonderful

It truly is . I always have a smile on my face while reading them.

 

[Abudefduf]

Gee, thanks guys. I'm happy to hear that since my sense of humor is pretty much the only thing I've got going for me, lol.

Avengers: The Enemy Within Vol 1 #1
"The Enemy Within: Part 1"

In which Captain Marvel teams up with Spider-Woman to fight some corny villains from her past and then with Thor to fight some dinosaurs from everyone's past.

​

 

[Abudefduf]

22 days until Captain Marvel



Avengers Assemble Vol 2 #16
"The Enemy Within: Part 2"

In which the Avengers assemble to fight the Brood... another enemy from Carol's past.



Quick correction: the only power that Carol can't (or rather, shouldn't) use is flight.​

 

[Abudefduf]

21 days until Captain Marvel



Captain Marvel Vol 7 #13
"The Enemy Within: Part 3"

In which Yon-Rogg officially launches his attack on Earth.


​

 

[Abudefduf]

20 days until Captain Marvel



Avengers Assemble Vol 2 #17
"The Enemy Within: Part 4"

In which Carol finally finds out what's going on: the explosion that gave her powers also fused Yon-Rogg with the Psyche-Magnitron, a shard of which is in her brain.

Basically, she's got a small piece of Yon-Rogg in her head. Yeah, that does sound like a problem.

​

19 days until Captain Marvel



Captain Marvel Vol 7 #14
"The Enemy Within: Part 5"

In which Captain Marvel saves Earth and defeats Yon-Rogg by reuniting with an old friend of hers: amnesia.



The ending of this issue may or may have not made me a little emotional.​

 

[Abudefduf]

18 days until Captain Marvel



Captain Marvel Vol 7 #15
"Kiss Today Goodbye: Part One"

In which Captain Marvel is struggling to feel anything about her best friends and allies, but thankfully they're all too busy dealing with a universe-ending threat to focus on their personal problems.

​

 

[Iceman]

She looks like someone not to be messed with there!

Ms. Marvel Vol 1 #5
"Bridge of No Return"

In which Ms. Marvel and Vision meet for the first time and beat the crap out of each other.​

Who wins?

 

[Abudefduf]

Who wins?

Friendship, of course.

 

[Abudefduf]

17 days until Captain Marvel



Captain Marvel Vol 7 #16
"Kiss Today Goodbye: Part Two"

In which Captain Marvel and her team are defeated and taken prisoners. But Carol still has a plan... and that plan is to blow herself and everything and everyone around her up.

​

 

[Abudefduf]

16 days until Captain Marvel



Captain Marvel Vol 7 #17

In which Captain Marvel meets her new nemesis... a wealthy woman who's mad for having been replaced by Carol on the cover of a famous magazine. Uh

I'm so here for this random Spartacus homage.



This issue? It's really good. And it ends with Kamala Khan's first official appearance, which makes it even better.​

 

[Abudefduf]

15 days until Captain Marvel



Captain Marvel Vol 8 #1
"Higher, Further, Faster, More: Part One"

In which Carol and Rhodes have just started dating when Tony sends Carol in space for a mission. For one year.

Proof that Rhodey is husband material and Chewie a terrible pet:



And here's what is probably Carol's most famous quote (which I wouldn't be surprised to hear in the movie):



A great beginning to a great story arc. David Lopez's art is ​

 

[flickchick85]

Here we go, the arc that made me a real fan. I was a casual fan of the character thanks to KSD's previous run and my dabbling into prior runs, but this arc transformed that "like" into love.

14 days until Captain Marvel



Captain Marvel Vol 8 #2
"Higher, Further, Faster, More: Part Two"

In which Rocket meets Chewie. Their encounter doesn't go well.



Picking a "panel of the day" in a Captain Marvel comic written by DeConnick is always so damn difficult, because there are so many worthy candidates.



Another famous Carol quote that I wouldn't be surprised at all to hear in the movie.​

 

[Abudefduf]

13 days until Captain Marvel



Captain Marvel Vol 8 #3
"Higher, Further, Faster, More: Part Three"

In which Captain Marvel learns she's not the saviour the alien refugees need.



Another fantastic issue. I read an article once about how this story is a deconstruction of the white saviour trope, and I can see why.

Captain Marvel Vol 8 #4
"Higher, Further, Faster, More: Part Four"

In which Captain Marvel makes new friends and together they steal some stuff.
