Captain Marvel
Carol Danvers, the former Ms. Marvel, is now Captain Marvel, and in many ways has become Marvel’s prime mover and shaker. She’s in charge of The Ultimates, a force that tries to keep the Earth and the universe safe. This means she deals with cosmic threats in space and other dimensions, but she’s also very much involved in events closer to home, whether she’s debating the ethics of acting on a superhero’s ability to predict the future, possibly endangering individuals’ civil rights by arresting them for crimes which have yet to occur, or supporting her friend Jessica Drew, aka Spider-Woman, during her pregnancy. Here’s hoping Marvel does her justice in the upcoming movie, set to hit theaters in March 2019. With Brie Larson in the title role, she seems to be off to a great start.
