I've definitely seen a lot of comments about how her comic runs have seen a significant ramp up in production value and whatnot in the past couple years in the lead up to this movie.


I was also never an avid comic fan so all I've ever really known of Captain Marvel was that it was funny to me DC Comics had a character called Captain Marvel; it's kind of interesting to look into the history of the character actually.


I'm fine with a wrinkle like this getting thrown into the mix, though, it's kind of one my favorite goofy tropes in nerdy media, where an ultra powerful wrinkle gets thrown in late in the game that totally changes the stakes. I think it'd be REAL cool, for example, if the X-Men franchise used its 100% Fox swnasong to bring Legion into the films and do what my comic reading friends tell me he usually does in the comics, which is just make quips about life's ultimate insignificance and then reset the timeline so new artists or writers can come in and tell their own stories.

Excited to see this movie tomorrow!
