"Marvel/MCU doesn't have any good female heroes. All of the only good Marvel females are with the X-MEN, FF or Spiderverse."
How often have we heard comments like this. Not absolute but IMO there is truth to comments like that. Outside of the Xverse, FF or maybe the Spiderverse admittedly there isn't really a lot of Marvels I liked back in the day. The most important Avengers chick IMO is probably Scarlett Witch. But....I never really liked her. She was good for story but carry a film...no. Never was really a fan of her or BW until the MCU came out. Then of course there's Captain Marvel. Did I care ANYTHING for CM back when? Not even a little.
So is there really any wonder Marvel is reinventing CM a bit. I'm willing to bet my left nut 90% of the people complaining about changes made to her are the same ones who said for years all Marvel's best wemon belonged to other studios. It's really kinda what Marvel just had to do.
It's like how often do we here comments like "Marvel had no a-listers when they started the MCU." If one can argue Iron man or Thor was b-list where does that leave Avenger wemon?! CM, BW and Scarlett Witch were arguably c-d-list at best. Marvel is doing the best with what they had. It's ashamed so many fake fans are acting fake butthurt over characters they never really cared much for in the first place.
The simple fact Marvel is about to make a c-list female the biggest ever is just epic. I can't wait to see where Marvel goes with CM for years to come. Because Carol is going nowhere after this MCU reinvention.
