I held my breath at the title... but I’m glad your rant veered toward wanting to see the Monica Rambeau Captain Marvel in the MCU vs. the garden variety comicsgate trolling the film is enduring already.

Truthfully, I haven’t read much of Captain Marvel/Ms. Marvel but I think a lot of the fresh love and interest in the character comes from her being reshaped in recent years and given a much more solid identity. I know our own resident Captain Marvel fanatic @readingdanvers will disagree with a lot of the “anti Danvers sentiment” espoused here, but would absolutely agree that the character was often horribly written in her history as she’s detailed some of those horrendous plot lines in her blog.

I’m sure if there ever was a decision between possible Captain Marvels, it came down to Danvers having a longer history, much more current comic visibility, and given the “controversy” already stirred up... maybe just wanting to tackle one diversity hurdle at a time.

I haven’t seen the movie yet, but I did see one minor spoiler that a young Monica is introduced. So, we can only hope perhaps the seeds are sown to bring your Captain Marvel to the screen in the future!
