    What the f*** ?

    They're killing my Carol off ? :(

    I may very well be the only person who holds Ms. Marvel in the same regard as others hold Spider-Man, Captain America, Wolverine etc, but this is too much.

    They're even going to have Moonstone carry on the Ms. Marvel solo title. I can only hope this is some sort of fake-out.

    I do enjoy Carol, and I don't want to see her killed, but there's something quite hot, hot and sexy about Moonstone "pretending" to be Ms Marvel, and I am literally dripping to think about how she is going to seduce the real Hawkeye when Ronin or that little Girl Hawkeye who got so much shit from Clint over the honor of being the new Hawkeye, but heads with Bullseye.

    I do so would have enjoyed to more so see these women rutting for the right to be called MS marvel over and over again than k... What happened to the Carol component in Rogue?

    O? Rogues a blank slate since messiah Complex? That's cool.

    Oh, and what if it becomes a thing that guys take the name of their fallen lover? I mean Hank Pym is trendy right? Wouldn't Wonderman make an even more fabulous Ms Marvel?

    Fabulous, indeed.

    But seriously, WTF? I like Carol. She was a character I'd never really given a second thought to until recently (like Civil War) but have come to like and enjoy, and now, they're killing her? I'd have had less issue with this if Rogue wasn't 'erased' and had some sort of identity crisis and became the new Ms. Marvel. (Don't get me started there.) But frikkin Moonstone?

    But.
    Come.
    ON.

    Since when is Marvel just a 'who can we kill next and replace almost unnoticeably' brigade? Why not just have Peter Parker die and Ben Reilly come back? Why has DC and Marvel's ages-long pissing contest de-evolved into a shitting contest - i.e., who can shit all over their characters the fastest and the most?

    GOOD GRIEF.

    No Hermiod, you're not the only one.

    So has she died already? What issue is/will this be in? I too was completely oblivious to her before Civil War, but man what a costume! ;)

    She's still breathing.

    Carol has been jonsing to murder Osborn for the last couple issues of her own title and as of a couple days ago when reading dark Avengers #1, well I and everyone else found out.

    I suppose if they're going to kill her, then she has to sleep with spider-man. Dead blonde girls are completely his wheelhouse.

    She still has to get knocked up and run to Europe first.

    What exactly do you think she was doing in Space with the Starjammers?

    She's doomed.

    She's a bitch.

    A hot bitch, but still a bitch.

    New to comics? I wouldn't worry.

    Comic axiom #1: Only Bucky stays dead.

    ...see what I mean?

    I usually find that bitchiness is one of the hotter qualities in a woman.

    The only good thing she ever did was get her powers jacked by Rouge a much better character. I think she watched to many episodes of She-Ra growing up... I say good ridance.....

    I liked Carol better as Binary anyway. Still, I doubt that she'll be gone long. If it were meant to be "permanent", they would have kept it under tighter wraps, like Captain America and
    Wasp.

    Off-topic slightly, but does any studio have the film rights to Ms. Marvel?

    Surely she'd be part of the Captain Marvel package? I really liked her in the 60s playing Doctor Bellows with Boobs.

    That's the joke. Not even the one that's supposed to stay dead stays dead.
    (And it lead to one of the greatest titles of the year in Captain America stories lately, too!)
