Danvers a Boston born United States Air
Force officer had to go through decades
worth of adventures and misadventures
before assuming the mantle of Captain
Marvel though they have buried over the
years Danvers powers as Captain Marvel
includes superhuman strength stamina
reflexes agility and durability as well
as flight energy absorption and the
ability to fire photon blasts from her
hands Carol Danvers made her comic book
debut in 1968 Marvel superheroes number
13 but not as a hero she was introduced
as a secondary character romantic
interest and occasional damsel in
distress in the stories of Marvel a
member of the Kree warrior race and the
original Captain Marvel to balance out
these humble and distinctly outdated
beginnings more recent stories have
expanded upon Danvers early years
revealing her to have been feisty
ambitious and eager to prove herself
equal if not better than the boys from a
young age her entry into service as an
Air Force pilot saw her flying
experimental aircraft surviving being
captured and tortured and going on
missions that brought her into contact
with future heroes the likes of Logan
and Ben Grimm her remarkable
accomplishments drew the attention of
higher ups which is how she would wind
up working with NASA as a security
officer and meeting and befriending
Captain Marvel though she largely played
the role of damsel in distress from
Marvel to save an unfortunate byproduct
of the times her involvement in his
adventures would eventually result in
her gaining her powers and becoming a
superhero in her own right
in 1969 s Captain Marvel number 18 the
villainous jaan raghav arbyrd a deep
hatred for Marvel took a kidnapped Carol
Danvers to an abandoned Creole post to
use her as bait for Captain Marvel here
he used a legal
Kri technology the psychie magnetron to
create a mandroid to do battle with the
hero though marvel came out of the
conflict victorious the psyche magnetron
was damaged and subsequently exploded
Carroll was injured in the conflict but
apparently recovered the full extent of
the psyche magnetrons effects on her
however wouldn’t become apparent for
another eight years in 1977 Miss Marvel
made her debut though Carol Danvers
didn’t know it at the time
she and the new heroine were one in the
same after a falling out with NASA and a
best-selling book she went into
journalism unaware that the psyche
magnetron had fundamentally changed her
and that she was having blackouts during
which she would fight crime with her
incredible new abilities thankfully she
would eventually reconcile these two
aspects of her identity and in the years
to follow
Danvers would go on to become a
successful hero even joining the
Avengers unfortunately despite her
success and her remarkable abilities the
character of Carol Danvers continued to
get mistreated shortly after joining the
Avengers she would again be made into
the victim in a much maligned and
heavily controversial storyline now
commonly labeled the rape of Miss Marvel
in which she was brainwashed and
impregnated by the villainous Marcus
immortus a being who exists in a
timeless limbo
Marcus essentially plucked Carol out of
time itself and made it so she would
become pregnant and give birth to him
it’s a super convoluted and strange
plotline that basically boils down to
Carol being sexually assaulted by
villain the worst part is that after his
plan is revealed to the Avengers for
Iron Man and Hawk I just let him take
Carol back to limbo
when Carol finally returned she was
understandably upset with her teammates
for allowing her to be taken by a man
who essentially admitted to already
manipulating and exploiting her in her
12 years of publication up to that point
Carol Danvers had already gone through
more than many characters do in their
entire careers but the road ahead of her
to become Captain Marvel was still long
and winding after having her powers and
memories stolen by rogue she became
close with Charles Xavier as she
attempted to restore some of her lost
memories during her time with Charles
and the x-men Carol underwent a dramatic
change after being taken and
experimented on by the alien race
known as the brood becoming the
cosmically powered binary later she
would take the name warbird and rejoin
the Avengers only to eventually return
to the name miss marvel plink we said it
is a complicated history in 2012 carol
danvers finally fulfilled her destiny
stepping into the role that she’d been
sharing a history with since her 1968
debut around this time she was reunited
with her old friend Marvel whom the Kree
had resurrected to help in defending the
Kree Empire against the Phoenix force
after Marvel sacrificed himself Carroll
took up his name to honor him and ever
since has been protecting both earth and
the cosmos as Captain Marvel from
chronic damsel in distress to one of the
most powerful formidable and inspiring
characters in the pantheon of Marvel
heroes carol danvers has certainly come
a long way and yet we have every reason
to believe that her greatest adventures
are still yet to come do you agree with
