Jul 17, 2019Captain Marvel is at her best when her back is against the wall, and writer Kelly Thompson seems to know that. It's in these moments that fans get a glimpse of the person underneath all that power, showing just how human and relatable Carol is, and reminding us why we fell in love with the character all those years ago.

Word Of The Nerd - Cat Wyatt
Jul 21, 2019Captain Marvel #8 was an intense but interesting read. The intensity makes sense, given that it's following War of the Realms and a strong sense of foreshadowing. It was a strong lead to a new plot"one that'll be interesting to see where it ends up. Read Full Review

On Comics Ground - Joanna Robinson
Jul 22, 2019It's time for a new Chapter for Captain Marvel and this one is starting off with a bang! No literally, between the World finding out about Carol's Kree bloodline, the appearance of a new Hero AND something internally wrong with Carol she has a lot of mess to clean up. Read Full Review

Black Nerd Problems - L.E.H. Light
Jul 18, 2019I'm glad we're back with a new plot for Carol. Thompson can show off her creativity and ability to deliver the laughs, the punches, and the hugs in equal measure. This team is only going to get stronger as they dive into what makes Carol tick and build her relationships around her. Read Full Review

The press, public, and Air Force all turn against Carol over her Kree heritage, but she's got friends she can lean on. This is a stage-setting issue in terms of plot development, but it's built on granite bedrock of great characterization. The Carol/Jess Drew wo-mance is on full display, supported by consistently excellent dialogue and expressive facial art.

It's good and I really tried to but I just can't care enough to keep reading. Since Marvel publishes too many books and I'm already spending too much, I gotta drop something if I'm gonna add something else. Sorry Kelly and Carmen!

Very promising begining to a new arc after a poor opening to series, a new arrival and the truth of her kree heritage has Carol questioning her place in a world she no longer feels part of one to watch over next few issues
