She has several decent comics, but nothing particularly great.

Mostly this OP. Carol used to have a decent personality and was openly considered to be incredibly sexy by Tony, Eric O'Grady, etc. But when she was chosen to be a "feminist icon" she had to lose all those traits.

In order to have a character representing everyone/or every female, they can't have any depth or real personality because having any unique edges would "alienate" her from being an icon. Carol's current personality consists of being strong, being a woman, and being brave. If she had anything more than that like vices or non bland opinions she wouldn't fit what a lot of women/Feminists want in a Feminist Hero.

Most of the folks around here hate her because she's not a character anymore, she's an agenda. If you want any good stories of Carol, you'll need to go back to her Ms. Marvel days. The older stuff isn't brilliant but it's decent. Hope that clears it up for ya.
>>
>>83436221
Boy, this. I liked Carol when she was kind of a C-list fuck up, but out of the blue they started pushing her as MARVEL'S GREATEST SUPERHEROINE when she wasn't even anyone's favorite female Captain Marvel.

Kind of a shame that her most memorable stories are getting her powers stolen by a more popular character and giving birth to her rapist.
>>
>>83437341
So do they just pretend all that never happened or what? It's so mystifying how she went from "that lady who got drunk and tore a wing off a plane" to "lives in the Statue of Liberty, little girls everywhere look up to her, first lady of Marvel whoo Carol Corps"
>>
>>83437671
They pretend it didn't happen.
To be fair they were pretending the rape thing didn't happen LONG before she got Cap'd.
>>
>>83436757
I honestly highly doubt that. There is literally nothing in the movie to make an allegory like that work. If they said that, I'd bet my life savings that it's just then trying to sound progressive long after the fact.

Also, you're retarded for getting so triggered by a term that has no inherent connection to /pol/.
>>
>>83436927
The civil war in the MCU was much more interesting than that clusterfuck in the comics.
>>
>>83435748
Marvel wants to make her relevant so all the money they wasted on her to keep her name away from Shazam, the rightful owner, is not in vain.
Her being hamfisted everywhere is all for a name, when other better female heroes can take her place on that spotlight.
>>
>>83436761
Didn’t Ms Marvel start as a feminist hero until that got dropped later on?
>>
>>83437765
their magics are getting out of hand. yesterday those madmen made the victim of a murder/suicide publish a paper on the affects of getting shot in the face...a decade ago. also they transformed a white man into an Indian one.
>>
>>83435748
It's mainly because she gets pushed really, REALLY hard by Marvel because they want their own "great feminist icon" like Wonder Woman, when she isn't that popular (that they're mainly marketing her to that one crowd /co/ really doesn't like is not helping), and the only storyline about her that people remember is the one about giving birth to her own rapist and leaving with him to another world to start a family. And you can guess we don't remember that one because it was good.
>>
>>83438045
Honestly I've never read Ms. Marvel's starting run/series. I only picked up a couple of odd issues long after she was established and saw her mostly in Avengers/Guest Spots. And a Google search doesn't prompt anything about her being an early feminist icon until recently. For reference she began as a sidekick and typically female characters that started that way(in her time period) were made to either bait female readers or add a love interest which I believe she was to the original Captain Marvel/Mar-veil
>>
>>83438162
>For reference she began as a sidekick
What? No she didn't. Mar-Vell didn't even show up until like issue 10. And she was explicitly a feminist superhero, her name was Ms. Marvel and she was basically Gloria Steinem fanfiction.

Carol predates the Ms Marvel series by a good decade or so. She was just a pretty damn minor character before they decided she should get superpowers and a series because why not.
>>
>>83438189
She adopted the Ms. Marvel name from Mar-vell's Captain Marvel and worked with him for a while following her introduction as Ms. Marvel. Again her origin series isn't my strongest area of expertise but didn't she fill the role of sidekick for a while if not immediately following her origin?
>>
Carol started as a side character in 1968, only became Miss Marvel in 1977.

Well, if she's going to be another soft but tough chick look at Widow and Hill for how far that goes.

It sort of worked for Peggy, but Peggy's Peggy. It doesn't feel like it carried over to Sharon for example who is meant to be Peggy 2.0. so there you go on repeat success. I'll give Gamora benefit of doubt until GotG2

Wanda is interesting precisely because she is consistently uncertain but allows herself to confide in others regularly, drawing later strength from showing initial weakness. It's compelling compared to just switching from silent & sarcastic badass to flirty to lost little girl bringing up sterility while spontaneously planning to elope mid-disaster. Which just makes me wonder if there are 3 Black Widows running around.

Look at Bucky, Steve and T'Challa in comparison. They're often capable but always vulnerable. That image is in now. You get behind these people not because they're leaders or have a great ass but because you want to follow their journey to overcoming a personal conflict. Everyone doing something cool during action scenes is great, but when Cap and Bucky have a silent moment in the quinjet and T'Challa appears to be restraining himself to learn from failure and become wiser while listening to Zemo and reflecting you actually care because it's less about what feats they can do with ease and more what they struggle with but are determined to try to accomplish.

So I ask, can Carol Danvers pull that off?
Is she a woman out of her era of morality? Did she fail to prove herself at a crucial point and now lives with the shame of the first failure creating subsequent success of countless atrocities on her hands? Is she a young heir who failed to protect their queen mother, now tasked with shouldering the responsibility of acting as avenger, protector and successor?

Fighting in stead of a predecessor is nice, but if it doesn't feel truly personal and part of character development it's really just par for the course.
>>
>>83438717
She did use to have a whole bunch of character flaws on her hands (including alcoholism) but then in recent years Marvel worked really hard to make her Generic Strong Female Protagonist.
I don't really get why considering Tony freaking Stark propped their movies, the most successful part of the franchise, up to where they are now, but hey.
>>
Honestly I think She-Hulk despite being considered derivative conceptually would work far better especially since they could bring her in as someone who is glad the Avengers tried to help her cousin but also troubled his tenure with them lead to even more trouble and him disappearing for good.

As a someone competent in law she could also be the one to step to Ross, and as a Hulk that would be deliciously tense and poetic irony, and call him on his legal bullshit.

Her taking Hulk's spot to redeem his image and hopefully find him would give her some of that Cap/Bucky push. Add in an inner conflict of her recognizing a need for the hulk power to be of use but concerned that she might end up like Bruce when she starts to lose it during battles.
Plus like Wanda and Zemo due to the activities of the Avengers because of previous Hulk shenanigans there's already a lot to work with without giving her a solo movie and hefty origin. She's here now, here's why, moving on.

Carol started out as a minor character in Mar-Vell's early days, back when he was a spy for the Kree against Earth's interests. She was the security officer at the base that Mar-Vell had infiltrated. He left the base (Carol stayed with the military and didn't find out wtf happened until the incident with the Nerve Gas later) just before being bonded to Rick Jones. Carol never appeared in his series after that point, and she never appeared as Ms. Marvel, to the point where if you went back and read only that, you'd never know about it, even though you see the Psyche-Magnitron incident take place.
Carol was, for the time at least, a feminist superhero. She was "Ms. Marvel" instead of something like "Marvel Girl" which, at the time, meant she was considered equal to a man. Later on, she even got the black costume which, while considered sexist now, 40 years later, at the time it meant even more independence from Mar-Vell, as she had an entirely different color scheme and she even got her own symbol (her lightning bolt, as opposed to his Star of Hala).

The feminism of the 70's wasn't the same thing was it is now.

Claremont's X-Men & Busiek's Avengers are her genuinely good comic stories. She has some good stuff in her 2 Ms Marvel ongoings too (by Claremont and Reed respectively) but they're pretty hit-or-misd. This FEMINIST AGENDA shit isn't new, she's been that way since her inception and it shows. That's actually why we got the maligned rapebaby storyline; the Editor in Chief was anti-feminist and wanted to cut her down to size.

Then Carol starts trying to prove her wrong, but whatever she does she can't remember all the fucks up she did.
In the end, psychologically almost destroyed, she says "Fuck that shit" and start doing good for the pure sake of it, without thinking about proving to be a hero.
And THIS way she becomes the greatest hero Disney's Hercules style

See, what I don't get is the "there were better options!" mindset.

There really weren't.

Historically, she was the first Marvel Superheroine to get a solo run longer than 4 fucking issues. Not even any of the lauded X-Men girls can claim that. Shit, one of the two femuties who did eventually get their own ongoing was originally one of HER supporting characters.

Then there's the fact that its about franchising, not simply having a vagina. Could you spin Hellcat out into a worthwhile trilogy? Tigra? Squirrel Girl? No. Or at least, not easily. You'd have to build so much shit there on the spot. Captain Marvel is a brandname that's gotten as much traction as either Dr Strange or Black Panther have over the years and racked up a lot of material. And Carol was there for it since the very beginning. Which, again, is why she wins out over Monica or Phylla or whichever other female Captain Marvel you think they'd use (besides, you know, being white and straight and safe).

The only comparable options are She-Hulk, who'd be maligned as a subordiante to a male, and Kamala, who's a spinoff from Carol so you might as well hold her off for a few years to make the money go further. Plus neither of them really have a wealth of their own material to draw from, She-Hulk because she gave up decades ago in favour of taking the piss out of everybody else, and Kamala because she's just so brand spanking new and needs time to build it up.

I dunno. It all seems perfectly logical to me.

Unfortunately, it doesn't work very well, because they're evangelists (in the classical sense of the word), spewing over everywhere else to bring their "truth" to the sheeple.

She is hated because current readers don't like her being pushed into a leadership role when it wasn't part of her characterization previously.

These same readers are fine with Captain America being a leader-type of the Avengers now, when for the longest time he wasn't a leader but shown as little more than a grunt. Then the writers decided to turn Cap into a leader show they wrote him like that. Now he is a leader. The same thing will happen to Carol over time, its just the transitional period that is rough.

(Cap A doesn't have any good runs either. Prove me wrong.)

Nope, Steve as shown in the early Avengers of the 60s and 70s. In the late 70s and early 80s there was a push to make Cap the commander of the Avengers not just a frontline soldier.

I did feel like the Rick Jones era of Captain Marvel at least tried to do right by it's Fawcett namesake, but that probably had more to do with how pissed off Thomas was that Marvel did such a thing in the first place

That being, I do prefer Mar-Vell's original "space centurion" costume to his later ones, though Genes-Vell/Legacy did manage to make the more well known one look good

Thats a fair point, Cap was the leader among the group of 3 reforming villains. But it was short-lived, when the roster ballooned back up Cap went back to being a spear carrier.

They were KSD's followers.

I admire your confidence as a blind man to judge artwork. But that's shit.

>>83436083
The general consensus, as held by the mainstream comics press is formed by the likes of kate leth, and KSD's hanger ons. From that perspective, /co/ is the minority.

>>83438437
Quite a few feminist movements have literally been used for those purposes. Ms Marvel comics? That sounds like a stretch.

Because when serious shit happens like the Paris shootings or the london tube bombings, there's a go to place for that. It doesn't generated those ideas. They'd exist regardless of it's existance.

At this rate? Kamala just needs a great archvillian, and I'd go with her.

Literally nobody knows Mar-Vell. More people know DC's Captain Marvel as Captain Marvel than Carol.

The fact that you don't think Billy Batson shows what a newfag you are even in DC.

I was thinking of Marvel's Captain Marvel though.

Normally when I DO hear Captain Marvel, I do think of Billy fucking Batson, you idiot.

This is very on point and the only weak part is the dismissal of Monica.

Monica is only bland in Nextwave compared to the utter insanity of all her teammates. She's the straight man.

Yeah, no.

Even when I was a kid, long before SJWs and all I had was 56k and a library that had Busiek Avengers TPBs, I hated Carol.

Reading her descent into alcoholism only highlighted to me that she was one of those characters that no one had any idea what to do with them.

Whether reading her guest appearing in X-men comics fighting the Brood or Reed's reboot of her where she literally had a publicist or now where he's an icon for reasons, there's literally nothing to her. I genuinely can not tell you any of her personality traits. I guess she's consistently serious?

She's a non-character that pretty much only a nice, cheesecake costume and a plot device for Rogue stories.

I really don't read western comics. But I'm familiar enough to be fairly certain that She-Hulk dying won't be a permanent affair. Especially considering how popular she is.

I understand the anger at her death being poorly written, but it almost seems like some people here think it'll be permanent.
>>
Carol herself isn't a bad character but her KSD run has to be the most overated pieces of shit I've read in years. She completely took away all of the things that made Carol interesting and it just pisses me off that people are praising Carol as some sort of feminist perfect character when there are other female characters in the Marvel universe who deserve the push that Carol is getting.

Carol is the Roman Reigns of the Marvel universe.
