It's possible that the amnesia came about from some other source, and then the Kree helped her recover out of altruism or more likely because it was advantageous to have an easy candidate for recruitment that could potentially serve double-duty as an undercover agent (given that humans and Xandarians look pretty much identical, and it's not clear whether they actually can be distinguished apart from with a medical examination).
Well I agree with the latter part in a general sense, I think it's wrong in Captain Marvel's case for reasons that can be summed up by the line "I didn't go to medical school for ten years to be called mister".
Eh, I like Kamala as Ms. Marvel More, so Carol can be Captain.
My main issue with Kamala Khan - and one of the reasons I think I've struggled to get into her - is she has this very clear logical path of maturing past rabid fannism and making her own hero identity with her own name and identity... and yet has quite extensively never taken that path. Ms. Marvel should never have been more than a transitionary stage for her, imo.
So what's the problem with Carol Danvers transitioning into a more appropriate identity then?
Actually, I thought I heard in the latest series she was in she was just going by 'Khan' now.
Didn't fit her arc imo. And for that matter, her taking an identity that ued to belong to a man instead of retaining her own ran counter the the point. Ms. Marvel was her thing and nobody else's and she was powerful and successful with her thing; Captain Marvel was someone else's thing that she abandoned her own thing to adopt. Not to mention her real rank of captain is a US military thing and... well, I kinda think she should be progressing to ditch her associations with that.
Really? If so, that's pretty neat.
Why should Carol ditch her military connections?
I'm pretty sure that Khan is the Grizzled Future Kamala from Exiles
To be honest I'll freely admit this is more because I have a very turgid view of the US military.
Yeah that's why I've always had mixed feelings on it. On the one hand I do get the logic, but on the other... Dick will always be my Robin - and I think of the other Robins primarily in terms of their various other identities even though they've all had cool stints as Robin. So I think of Stephanie as Spoiler since that was her thing. Though if you want to talk more on this one, we should probably shift it over to the general or DC thread.
1. Those are all fair points
I'm pretty sure it was meant to be commentary on how overdone that sort of thing is
Dude it's great. Basically her as Sarah Connor. It also has CARTOON CHIBI WOLVERINE from a G-rated X-Men universe. Exiles is fantastic right now and going strong, go read it.
So do I. I wonder if in a Captain Marvel film sequel, Kamala will show up.
Yeah it's great. And it can be read three different way:
Ah, yes,kindly old grandmas
Heh, you beat me to the Mass Effect memes. I was gonna go with "I know a renegade when I see one."
