Ever since The Death of Captain Marvel, Marvel has wondered what to do with the name of their fallen hero, and it has gone through several characters. Monica Rambeau, Genis Vell, and others have taken on the title, but nobody ever seemed to hold on to the name for very long. Finally, Carol Danvers was promoted from Ms. Marvel to Captain Marvel, while passing on her moniker to a new young heroine. This I think is my favorite solution so far, it just feels right.
I remember Carol Danvers was trapped in the psyche of Rogue but must have missed the story where she got her personality back. Anyone know when that happened?
ReplyDeleteSince Courtney is part of the Starman legacy, I need to track down all the issues of "Stars & S.T.R.I.P.E. and her appearances in JSA. I enjoyed the role-reversal in "Sins of Youth"...
ReplyDeleteIf anybody truly deserves the Captain Marvel name/title, it's Carol Danvers.
