Kelly Thompson is brilliant. Her witty humor makes every character she writes accessible and entertaining.
Captain Marvel along with a bunch of other female superheroes get trapped in a dystopian Roosevelts Island with the misogynistic Nuclear Man. I really like Thompson approach to Captain Marvel. It feels like A-Force but centered around Captain Marvel. I also really like how she embraces Carol's complicated history, even when she wasn't in her own book for over 20 years, but in the X-Men and Starjammers instead. I wasn't familiar with Carmen Carnero's work, but she's a really great artist.
I read the first volume of the previous series and this was better. I enjoy seeing Carol interact with all the other Marvel characters in the Avengers. There is also a face-off between Rogue and Captain Marvel that was a good match-up. Most of the action takes place inside an island with a force field up, Thunder Dome style.It was a solid start to a story, now I hope they take the story somewhere.
Whoa, Kelly Thompson makes a damn fun Captain Marvel! So this is a good place to jump on the Captain Marvel train. We have Nuclear man show up, and he sure thinks women are useless and nothing more than a piece of meat to use to make babies. Pretty disgusting, right? Luckily we have Captain Marvel, Rogue, Spider-woman and more to help slap some sense into this fool. When they all get trapped in a different reality they'll all have to come together to win! It's not perfect. There's some boring mo...
Solid relaunch emphasizes Carol's leadership skills over raw power. Also features a nice repurposing of the 70s c-list villain Mahkismo and great team-ups with Spider-Woman, She-Hulk, and Rogue.
Very “who run the word, girls”
Kelly Thompson is fast becoming one of my favourite writers at the moment. Her runs on Hawkeye and West Coast Avengers were amazing, and now she's taken over one of if not my favourite female superhero, and is taking her to new heights, pun most definitely intended.Carol gets thrust into a multitude of situations in these five issues, some of which are eerily familiar (looking at you, Rogue) and others are a hell of a lot different to what she's used to. And she makes mistakes. She trusts the wr...
A single male super powered entity causes a lot of trouble for Carol. She's back. Back from space. Back on Earth. Cap wants her. Iron Man wants her. The Avengers want her. Her best friend Jessica Drew wants her. Even moviegoers want her, she's back. This first volume of about the tenth(!) season like so many before it, just doesn't give her justice. It feels like a do-over with the same old supporting casts, and one random villain who shouldn't be causing her this much grief. It's OK... just ver...
“Fighter. Soldier. Hero. Pilot. Captain. Leader. Warrior. Icon.” Oh my gosh... this is what people were worried the movie was going to be like...What’s it about?Captain Marvel is back on Earth and runs into some cheesy reboot (I’m guessing) of some villain that almost nobody remembered (seriously I’ve been into comics for a long-ass time and I think I’ve only even heard of him once), this time the villain is sexist and wants to trap Captain Marvel along with some other female superheroes in som
Very good first volume! So I'd thought I'd go back to read this after really enjoying Kelly Thompson's Star mini-series that focuses on one of Captain Marvel's villains. I've never really been interested in Carol Danvers as a character, and other comics and the movie certainly didn't help with that. But Kelly Thompson as always knows how to make characters relatable for me and give them such a great voice! The story revolves around Nuclear man kidnapping people and bringing them to an island tha...
I havent read alot of Thompsons work before so I cant say Im a fanboy yet. This was just ok. This was my first read of a captain marvel novel. She gets caught up in a pocket of time vs nuclear man. At times I was bored. I also feel at times there was too much dialgoue. The art by Carnero was gorgeous to look at however not sure they made the correct choice for the cover art..it just looked like a weird version of Carol. Just barely a pass for me.
Hard one to rate because I really don't love storylines like this, as it was written.This reads like Thompson wanted to write Mad Max: Fury Road fanfic. Which could've been a good thing in the hands of a different writer maybe? As it was written, it left out what made Mad Max work because it had an air of... unnecessary chauvinism? Over the top and unnecessary.Look, far be it from me to tell another female writer she can't write 99% of the men in her book as chauvinistic assholes. That's her pre...
So far I'm really digging Kelly Thompson's take on Captain Marvel! I love how this whole story takes place in a "pocket of time" so to speak so it happens but doesn't mess with the continuity of other books, especially since a lot of characters show up in this. This story arc is also continuing the trend of getting Carol's life back after it became discombobulated due to the events of Civil War II and Life of Captain Marvel. She resumes her relationship with Rhodey, becomes a mentor of sorts, an...
I'll say this much about Re-entry: the interior art is leagues better than that godawful Captain Marvel on the cover. Not much else is great on the inside of this book, though. Captain Marvel is back (from somewhere, it seems like she never left) and before she can really get her bearings, she's sucked through a portal by Nuclear Man to a Mad Max-style alternate Roosevelt Island.Nuclear Man? Portals to alternate realities? It gets worse: this world is populated by female superheroes because Nucl...
rogue!! and!!! carol!!!! ( :solid first entry, i'm excited. little bit on the corny side - misogynist man villain - but i recognize how much i read about that trope and how bored i am of it.
Not impressed by another new beginning.Nuclear Man as a nemesis..didnt really hack it..old Fantastic Four villain rehashed? Who knew?Rogue v Cap Marvel could have been interesting,especially with their history..but building an arena for a fight between them?I usually love Kelly Thompsons work..but this..not so much.
That cover 🙈
This is one of the most enjoyable comics I've read in a long time. I'm still learning about comics, so I'm not an expert. I just like art that looks nice and stories that are smart and engaging, that don't betray what I know of the primary characters. And Captain Marvel : Re-Entry did not disappoint.The cover art isn't my favorite (The only piece of art in the volume that involved a male artist just happens to really emphasize her breasts. Are these two facts connected? Who can say?), but even w...
Better! Much better!The Stohl run was not much, IMO, but this was good. It felt a lot like the Kelly Sue run, which is where I first fell in love with Carol. I also really enjoyed the other characters Thompson brought in, and I liked that she spent some time dealing with the history between Rogue and Carol. Just a really solid book.
Coming back to the life of a hero shouldn't be so hard, but for Carol Danvers, it comes back hard, hitting not only physically (via a huge sea monster), but also emotionally (Rhodey is back alive and wants to rekindle things with Carol). But... when Tony asks for a favor, you know it's going to be an inconvenience. When a reporter wants to follow Carol around for 48 hours AND Nuclear Man decides to launch a coordinated attack separating Captain Marvel and a bunch of other female heroes away from...
