  Critics gave this a 7 oh my God even back then these "critics" were snorting something unnatural... Okay where to start because this ish has to be by far the best of the best in this run in terms of action, pacing and overall execution... Carol with her Binary powers goes after the Brood Queen and throws her down onto the island. Cru shoots the Queen in the skull and show sup in her original form thanks to her and Carol's bond. As Carol and Cru talk for a moment the Queen sticks her tail through Crus head and throws her like a ragdoll into a body of lava. This was brutal and badass, and the panels of Queen and Ms. Marvel back talking and beating the shit out of each other was fraggin awesome 😎👍 Carol's Binary powers shut off an d she has to face the Queen on her own in a weakened state. (I want to add the artwork for when Ms. Marvel goes batshit crazy with her Binary powers are amazing work).As Carol and the Queen go at it, Ms. Marvel takes the nuclear bomb that the Queen took away from Sum and drags the Queen up into space. Taking a deep breath 🫁 Carol puts the bomb in the Queens mouth and shoots it with her photons. The Queen is invincible so the goal was to make sure the nuclear detonation impact would shoot the Queen away from earth 🌎 and hopefully goes far far away at least for the foreseeable future. Carol crashes to earth into the ocean falls unconscious and is eventually picked up by Wonder Man. All of the Lightning Strike Team characters have their little conclusions and I guess move on with their lives. Anya is happy to see her dad and was forced to really grow up from near death. Machine Man is happy to have a male body with new weapons again, but Carol isn't too happy and there's this really good inner dialogue. She says "I don't really have a home. I don't have a family. I have William I think--And there's Simon, even though I've brushed him off to many times lately." She goes on "Listen to yourself Carol. You suck. Life sucks. Everything sucks. Yeah. I know. But Cru aside from powering me up made me face myself. Who I was. Who I am." There's a nice contemplative four panels of her sitting in the shower thinking "I rush into things blindly. Or I run away from them entirely. I am a coward and a killer." She is very hard on herself and isn't that what makes a hero a hero? Peter Parker is like this and same with many other heroes. I noticed in the modern Captain Marvel they would never even think of writing Carol like this at all especially in the horrible movie. So the comic ends with Iron Man talking to Sum about the Skrull Invasion of Superhumans. He accused Ms. Marvel of being a Skrull this whole time. BULLSH*t I say! This was a great way to end this story arc and really makes me think it would have been a great film if done right like this and with the right actress and costume design and supporting characters like Sum, Machine Man, Anya, Sleepwalker and of course Wonder Man. I would love to see this as a movie but nah instead we get Resting Bi**h face Breech Larsonm shame.... more
