==Development==
In an interview, [[Gerry Conway]] recalled the reason why Danvers was turned into a super hero, "It actually came about for fairly uncreative reasons... there was this idea, that I was kicking people off books in order to take over writing their books, this was of course not the case, at least from my point of view but given that how was they felt, I said to [[Stan Lee|Stan]]," "well is there any way that we could create some stuff so I'm not kicking people off books ?" Stan had either just created [[She-Hulk]] or was thinking about creating her," and we thought, 'can we come up with another female super hero, that can use the [[Captain Marvel (Marvel Comics)|Marvel]] name?'"<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Eury |first1=Micheal |title=Back Issue! |date=2012 |issue=54 |pages=23–24}}</ref>

===1970s===

Danvers resurfaces with superhuman abilities and becomes the hero [[Ms. Marvel]] (created by writer [[Gerry Conway]] and artist [[John Buscema]]) in a self-titled series in January 1977, at first written by Gerry Conway and later by [[Chris Claremont]]. In the series, she is the editor of ''Women Magazine'', a spin-off of the ''[[Daily Bugle]]''.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2019-02-19 |title=Carol Danvers and the saga of WOMAN Magazine |url=https://www.syfy.com/syfy-wire/carol-danvers-and-the-saga-of-woman-magazine |access-date=2022-11-08 |website=SYFY Official Site |language=en-US}}</ref> It is revealed that the energy exposure from the explosion of a device called the "Psyche-Magnetron" caused Danvers's genetic structure to meld with Captain Marvel's, effectively turning her into a human-Kree hybrid.<ref>''Ms. Marvel'' #1–23 (Jan. 1977–April 1979).

At the time of the publication of ''Ms. Marvel'' #1 in 1977, the title was self-consciously socially progressive for its time. This was reflected in the use of the word "[[Ms.]]", at the time associated with the [[feminist movement]],<ref name="ComicsAlliance 10 November 2014">{{cite news|last1=Weeler |first1=Andrew |title=Oh Captain My Captain: How Carol Danvers Became Marvel's Biggest Female Hero |url=http://comicsalliance.com/captain-marvel-carol-danvers-marvel-biggest-female-hero/|work=[[ComicsAlliance]] |date=November 10, 2014|access-date= December 7, 2014|url-status=dead |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20141209034738/http://comicsalliance.com/captain-marvel-carol-danvers-marvel-biggest-female-hero/|archive-date=December 9, 2014  }}</ref> and in Danvers fighting for [[equal pay for equal work]] in her civilian identity.<ref>{{cite web| url= http://marvel.com/news/comics/22834/marvel_women_of_the_70s_ms_marvel|title=Marvel Women of the 70: Ms. Marvel|last1=White|first1=Brett|website=Marvel.com|date= July 9, 2014|access-date=December 7, 2014 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20170724104758/https://news.marvel.com/comics/22834/marvel_women_of_the_70s_ms_marvel/|archive-date=July 24, 2017}}</ref>

===1980s===
In ''The Avengers'' #200 (Oct. 1980), which was written by [[Bob Layton]], [[David Michelinie]], [[George Pérez]], and [[Jim Shooter]], Ms. Marvel is kidnapped by a character named Marcus (the apparent son of Avengers foe [[Immortus]]) and taken to an [[Parallel universe (fiction)|alternate dimension]], where she is raped by Marcus and impregnated. She gives birth on Earth to a child that rapidly ages into another version of Marcus, who is ultimately unable to remain on Earth after [[Hawkeye (Clint Barton)|Hawkeye]] mistakenly damages his machine and takes Ms. Marvel back to the alternate dimension with no opposition from the Avengers, who perceive Ms. Marvel and Marcus to have fallen in love. Comic book historian Carol A. Strickland criticized the storyline in an essay, "The Rape of Ms. Marvel", due to the storyline implying Marcus to have potentially [[brainwash]]ed Danvers into falling in love with him.<ref>{{Cite journal| url= http://www.carolastrickland.com/comics/msmarvel/index.html|title=The Rape of Ms. Marvel|last=Strickland|first=Carol A.|journal=LoC|issue=1|date= January 1980|access-date=April 15, 2019 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20190327101150/http://www.carolastrickland.com/comics/msmarvel/index.html|archive-date= March 27, 2019}}</ref> Citing Marcus' line, "Finally, after relative weeks of such efforts—and admittedly, with a subtle boost from Immortus' machines—you became mine", Strickland posited that this constituted rape. As a former writer of the solo title, Chris Claremont also commented on the inappropriateness of the storyline, having been disallowed from having the character have a normal child and be a [[single mother]].<ref>Chris Claremont, quoted in ''X-Men Companion'' #2 (Fantagraphics Books, 1982): "Actually, my reaction was a lot stronger than that. But how callous! How cruel! How unfeeling! Considering that <nowiki>[the Avengers]</nowiki> must have seen Ms. Marvel only a couple of days before, or even a couple of months before. She wasn't pregnant then. How could she be eight months pregnant now?"</ref>

Claremont wrote a follow-up to the Marcus story in ''The Avengers'' Annual #10 (1981). In that story, Danvers is revealed to have returned to Earth—courtesy of Immortus's technology after Marcus continued to age and die of old age—but is attacked by the mutant [[Rogue (comics)|Rogue]], who permanently absorbs the character's abilities and memories. Danvers' memories are restored by [[Professor X]], and an angry confrontation with the Avengers concerning their failure to realize Marcus had brainwashed her follows.<ref>''The Avengers'' Annual #10 (1981). Marvel Comics.</ref>

In a later published flashback story, written by Claremont and [[Simon Furman]], it was shown that Carol's enemy [[Mystique (character)|Mystique]] had slowly and gleefully sadistically beaten Carol's psychiatrist and boyfriend Michael Barnett to death while being disguised as Carol herself. After this brought Carol in conflict with Mystique's [[Brotherhood of Mutants|Brotherhood of Evil Mutants]] group, Rogue stole Carol's powers and memories and afterwards tried to kill her by throwing her into the [[San Francisco Bay Area|San Francisco Bay]], but Carol's life was saved by [[Spider-Woman (Jessica Drew)|Spider-Woman]].<ref>''Marvel Super Heroes'' vol. 2, #11 (August 1992)</ref>

Claremont continued to develop the character in the title ''The [[Uncanny X-Men]]''. Danvers enters [[the Pentagon]] and, while wiping the government's files on the [[X-Men]], also deletes all records of herself in a symbolic break with her life as Ms. Marvel.<ref>''The Uncanny X-Men'' #158 (June 1982). Marvel Comics.</ref> During an adventure in space with the X-Men, Danvers is changed courtesy of experimentation by the alien race, the [[Brood (comics)|Brood]], into a newly empowered character called Binary (created by writer Chris Claremont and artist [[Dave Cockrum]]).<ref>''The Uncanny X-Men'' #164 (Dec. 1982). Marvel Comics.</ref> Drawing on the power of a cosmic phenomenon called a [[white hole]], Danvers becomes capable of generating the power of a star. As Binary, the character has a number of encounters with the X-Men,<ref>''The Uncanny X-Men'' #166–167 (Feb.–March 1983); #171, 174 (July, Oct. 1983); #200–201 (Dec. 1985 – Jan. 1986).

Marvel Comics.</ref>

Claremont expanded on the incident with the character Rogue by having the Carol Danvers persona manifest itself within Rogue's mind, sometimes overpowering Rogue's personality. This happens to Rogue on several occasions, which results in an uneasy armistice between the personalities within Rogue's mind.<ref>''The Uncanny X-Men'' #182 (June 1984); #203 (March 1986); #235–239 (Oct. 1988–Feb. 1989).

===1990s===
Carol Danvers continued to make sporadic appearances, including being featured in the two issue mini-series ''X-Men Spotlight On... Starjammers''<ref>''X-Men Spotlight On... Starjammers'' #1–2 (May–June 1990). Marvel Comics.</ref> Two issues of the original ''Ms. Marvel'' title—never previously published due to the original series' cancellation—were printed in a quarterly anthology series.<ref>''Marvel Super-Heroes'' vol. 2 #10–11 (July–Oct. 1992). Marvel Comics.</ref> That same year she appeared extensively in the storyline "[[Operation Galactic Storm]]". Near the conclusion of the story, Danvers lost her connection to the white hole she drew her powers from while diverting anti-matter from the Earth's sun left by the passing Nega Bomb, reverting to her original Ms. Marvel powers. She retained the energy manipulation and absorption powers she had as Binary, but on a smaller scale.<ref name="BinaryFeat">''Quasar'' Vol.1, #34 (March 10, 1992)</ref>

After several more team and solo appearances<ref>''The Avengers'' #350–351 (both Aug. 1992); ''Starblast'' #1 (Jan. 1994); ''[[X-Men Unlimited]]'' #1 (Dec. 1996); ''Excalibur'' #116 (Jan. 1998). Marvel Comics.</ref> she rejoined the Avengers<ref>''The Avengers'' vol. 3 #4 (May 1998). Marvel Comics.</ref> with the new alias Warbird (created by writer [[Kurt Busiek]] and artist [[George Pérez]]). Busiek explored the character by having her develop [[alcoholism]], struggling to come to terms with the loss of her cosmic powers and memories.

===2000s===

As Warbird, the character returns to the Avengers and plays a key role in the "[[Kang Dynasty]]" plotline.<ref>''Avengers'' vol. 3 #41–54 (June 2001–July 2002)</ref> [[Kang the Conqueror|Kang]]'s son Marcus, the [[Scarlet Centurion]], falls in love with her, but she rejects him, in part because he reminds her of Marcus, son of Kang's older alter ego Immortus, who raped her. The Scarlet Centurion nonetheless helps her to defeat the [[Master of the World (comics)|Master of the World]], a supervillain whose alien technology becomes the key to defeating Kang. In the course of the fight, Warbird kills the Master, and after the final victory over Kang she demands a [[court martial]] to review her actions. The court martial finds her killing justified as an act of war, and Carol continues as an Avenger. After the [[Avengers Disassembled|Avengers disband]], Warbird leaves the group, and, along with other prominent former Avengers like [[Wasp (comics)|Wasp]], [[Hank Pym]], [[Falcon (Marvel Comics)|Falcon]] and [[Wonder Man]], is not included in the [[The New Avengers (comics)|New Avengers]] group soon formed by [[Iron Man]] and [[Captain America]].<ref>''The Avengers'' #500–503 (Sept.–Dec. 2004), ''The Avengers: Finale'' #1 (Jan. 2005)</ref>

In July 2012, Carol Danvers assumed the mantle of [[Captain Marvel (Marvel Comics)|Captain Marvel]] in an ongoing series written by [[Kelly Sue DeConnick]] with art by Dexter Soy. For the title, artist [[Jamie McKelvie]] redesigned Danvers' costume, giving her a [[jumpsuit]] that used her traditional colours and her sash, but also paid homage to her military roots.<ref>{{cite news |url= http://www.newsarama.com/comics/captain-marvel-design-jamie-mckelvie.html|work=[[Newsarama]] |author=Ching, Albert|title=Jamie McKelvie Details his Captain Marvel Redesign|date=22 March 2012}}.</ref> McKelvie was DeConnick's first choice but originally completed the redesign as a bet with DeConnick.<ref>{{cite news |url= https://comicbook.com/marvel/news/captain-marvel-got-new-costume-bet/|work=[[ComicBook.com]]|last=Aguilar|first=Matthew|title=Captain Marvel Got Her New Costume Because Of A Bet|date=18 December 2018|accessdate=10 March 2021}}.</ref> In the series, Danvers explores her past. When describing her pitch for the series, DeConnick said at [[WonderCon]] 2012 that it could be "pretty much be summed up with 'Carol Danvers as [[Chuck Yeager]].{{'"}} She said the series would contemplate what Captain Marvel's legend means to Danvers, how she will wield it, and how the rest of the [[Marvel Universe]] reacts.<ref name=WCCP>{{cite web |url= http://marvel.com/news/story/18290/wondercon_2012_captain_marvel|title=WonderCon 2012: Captain Marvel |last=Beard|first=Jim|date=March 17, 2012|publisher= Marvel|access-date=March 19, 2012| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20131115133444/http://marvel.com/news/story/18290/wondercon_2012_captain_marvel|archive-date=November 15, 2013}}</ref>

In 2013, Carol Danvers starred in the ''Captain Marvel'' / ''Avengers Assemble'' [[fictional crossover|crossover storyline]], "The Enemy Within".

During the 2015 "[[Secret Wars (2015 comic book)|Secret Wars]]" storyline, Danvers headlined her own tie-in series, ''Captain Marvel and the Carol Corps'' co-written by DeConnick and [[Kelly Thompson]] and drawn by López. In the series, Danvers leads an elite squadron of female fighter pilots stationed at an airbase, Hala Field, where she is the only superpowered being; this leads the corps to help Danvers answer questions about her origin, which puts her in conflict with the controlling forces of [[Battleworld#Third Battleworld|Battleworld]].<ref>{{cite web |url= https://www.fastcompany.com/3043329/exclusive-first-look-at-marvels-newest-women-driven-comic|title=Exclusive First Look At Marvel's Newest Women-Driven Comic|last=Nagy|first=Evie|publisher=[[Fast Company (magazine)|Fast Company]]|date=March 10, 2015|access-date=August 25, 2015| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20180110054535/https://www.fastcompany.com/3043329/exclusive-first-look-at-marvels-newest-women-driven-comic|archive-date=January 10, 2018}}</ref> During the storyline, Danvers becomes a member of [[A-Force]], Battleworld's all-female team of Avengers.

Continuing with the All-New, All-Different Marvel initiative, Danvers starred in the ninth volume of ''Captain Marvel'', written by ''[[Agent Carter (TV series)|Agent Carter]]'' showrunners Tara Butters and Michele Fazekas, with artwork by [[Kris Anka]], which debuted in October 2015. The series, set eight months after "Secret Wars", sees Danvers taking over the responsibilities of [[S.W.O.R.D. (comics)|S.W.O.R.D.]], the military agency that was previously designated to protect Earth from intergalactic threats. Editor [[Sana Amanat]] said, "This is really meant to be the next level for Captain Marvel. Carol is really meant to be a soldier and a commander, and also a diplomat. We're really trying to build up this space complex and this space world."<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.fastcompany.com/3047641/most-creative-people/a-first-look-at-the-new-captain-marvel-written-by-agent-carter-showrunn|title=A First Look At The New Captain Marvel, Written By "Agent Carter" Showrunners|last=Nagy |first=Evie|publisher=Fast Company|date=June 23, 2015|access-date=August 25, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180110054516/https://www.fastcompany.com/3047641/a-first-look-at-the-new-captain-marvel-written-by-agent-carter-showrunn|archive-date=January 10, 2018}}</ref> At this time, Danvers also joined [[Ultimates (2015 team)|The Ultimates]]. Series writer [[Al Ewing]] said, "Carol's currently running Alpha Flight, which is Earth's premier space agency. [She has] seen the highs and the lows of the superhero business, and come out the other side. Right now, Carol's in the ascendant, culturally, both in-universe and outside it... Carol's story in ''The Ultimates'' is very much about her links with the ordinary super-hero world, and about trying to form a bridge between that world and the world of The Ultimates."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.newsarama.com/26688-the-ultimates-get-pretty-damn-cosmic-in-new-ongoing.html|title=THE ULTIMATES Get 'Pretty Damn Cosmic' In New Ongoing|last=Marston|first=George|publisher=[[Newsarama]] |date=November 6, 2015|access-date=March 28, 2016| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20180922024350/https://www.newsarama.com/26688-the-ultimates-get-pretty-damn-cosmic-in-new-ongoing.html|archive-date=September 22, 2018}}</ref>

In 2016, Danvers played a predominant role in the storyline "[[Civil War II]]", the core miniseries of which was written by Brian Michael Bendis and illustrated by [[David Marquez (comics)|David Marquez]]. In the story, Danvers is the leader of a faction of superheroes who wish to use [[Ulysses (comics)#Ulysses (Inhuman)|Ulysses']] precognitive power to profile people who in his visions, will commit future crimes. About her position Bendis stated, "From Carol's point of view, she is like, 'You're telling me the world is still turning at the end of the day and everyone is safe? I don't care... If it keeps us safe, that's fine.{{'"}}<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2016/05/07/brian-michael-bendis-on-tearing-marvel-s-heroes-apart-again-in-civil-war-ii.html|title=Brian Michael Bendis on Tearing Marvel's Heroes Apart (Again) in 'Civil War II'|last=Lendof|first=Emil|publisher=[[The Daily Beast]]|date=May 7, 2016|access-date=July 8, 2016|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20170204213434/http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2016/05/07/brian-michael-bendis-on-tearing-marvel-s-heroes-apart-again-in-civil-war-ii.html|archive-date=February 4, 2017}}</ref> During the storyline, Carol headed an effort to systematically lock up citizens without a trial for crimes they had not yet committed, and might never do, and the event culminated in that she killed her Avengers teammate [[Iron Man|Tony Stark]], who had previously made a prolonged effort to help her recover from her alcoholism.<ref>[https://bookriot.com/that-time-iron-man-was-captain-marvels-aa-sponsor/ THAT TIME IRON MAN WAS CAPTAIN MARVEL'S AA SPONSOR]; Book Riot</ref><ref>[https://www.cbr.com/captain-marvel-carol-danvers-drinking-problem/ When Did Carol Danvers Develop a Drinking Problem?]; [[Comic Book Resources]]</ref> This has been criticised as bad writing that did not fit with Carol's personality, and nearly destroyed her as a character.<ref>[https://screenrant.com/civil-war-ii-ruined-captain-marvel-carol-danvers/ How Civil War II Nearly Ruined Captain Marvel]; [[Screen Rant]]</ref><ref>[https://www.syfy.com/syfy-wire/wtf-was-going-on-with-carol-danvers-in-civil-war-ii WTF WAS GOING ON WITH CAROL DANVERS IN CIVIL WAR II?]; [[Syfy]]</ref><ref>[https://comicsalliance.com/civil-war-ii-5-recap/ Civil War Correspondence: The Character Assassination Of Carol Danvers By The Writer Brian Bendis]; [[ComicsAlliance]]</ref>

Following the conclusion of "Civil War II", Danvers starred in ''The Mighty Captain Marvel'', by writer [[Margaret Stohl]] and artist Ramon Rosanas, which sees Danvers become a household name. Stohl explained, "She will be one of the most popular heroes on the planet—but that's not something she is very comfortable with. And of course she's lost a lot of folks that she's loved so she has to cope with that, too. That being said, she still has a job to do as commander of the Alpha Flight. Her latest mission being recruiting and training new cadets.

Beginning in July 2018, Danvers headlined a limited series, ''The Life of Captain Marvel'', by Stohl and artist [[Carlos Pacheco]]. The series is described as a "retelling" of Danvers' origin story, but Stohl insisted that it is not a "reinvention" explaining, "You look through a different lens. It's nothing you'll expect and nothing you've seen happen, but there will be parts of her life that change the context of what you've seen before, so it's telling the other side of the story, of how she came to be." Stohl also said that there would be similarities with the [[Captain Marvel (film)|2019 film]], but the film is "its own thing".<ref>{{cite web |url= https://abcnews.go.com/GMA/Culture/captain-marvel-author-margaret-stohl-origin-story-expect/story?id=53421255|title='Captain Marvel' author Margaret Stohl says new origin story is 'nothing you'll expect' |last=Rothman|first=Michael|work=[[ABC News (United States)|ABC News]] |date=March 1, 2018|access-date=March 3, 2018| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20180619190018/https://abcnews.go.com/GMA/Culture/captain-marvel-author-margaret-stohl-origin-story-expect/story?id=53421255|archive-date=June 19, 2018}}</ref> The series reveals that Danvers' mother is Kree and that the blast that was responsible for her powers only awakened her preexisting Kree genes, and did not fuse her human DNA with Mar-Vell's Kree DNA as [[Retroactive continuity|originally written]].<ref>{{cite web| url= https://io9.gizmodo.com/marvel-just-added-another-twist-to-captain-marvels-orig-1829205937|title=Marvel Just Added Another Twist to Captain Marvel's Origin Story|last=Whitbrook |first=James|publisher= [[iO9]]|date=September 20, 2018|access-date= October 2, 2018| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20190305234430/https://io9.gizmodo.com/marvel-just-added-another-twist-to-captain-marvels-orig-1829205937|archive-date=March 5, 2019}}</ref>

In early 2019 Danvers starred in the tenth volume of ''Captain Marvel'' written by [[Kelly Thompson]] and drawn by Carmen Carnero. The story sees Danvers return to New York City after a stint in space and reconnect with allies and friends like Iron Man and Spider-Woman, as well as explore new relationships. Thompson teased, "There will definitely be some romance and it may be someone we all know and have seen before in Marvel Comics."<ref>{{cite web |url= https://www.nytimes.com/2018/10/02/arts/captain-marvel-new-comic-series.html|title=Captain Marvel to Get New Comic Series Ahead of Big-Screen Debut|last=Gustines|first=George Gene|work=[[The New York Times]]|date=October 2, 2018|access-date=October 2, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181007055603/https://www.nytimes.com/2018/10/02/arts/captain-marvel-new-comic-series.html|archive-date=October 7, 2018}}</ref>

Danvers plays a major role in the 2020 "[[Empyre]]" crossover storyline written by Al Ewing and Dan Slott, in which Danvers is elected as the [[Ronan the Accuser|Supreme Accuser]] of the newly forged Kree/Skrull alliance under [[Hulkling]] and leads her own corps of Accusers that includes Spider-Woman, [[Hazmat (comics)|Hazmat]] and [[War Machine]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.cbr.com/captain-marvel-accusers-team-empyre/|title=Captain Marvel Assembles a Heavy-Hitting Team for Empyre|last=Galanis|first= Evangelia|publisher=[[Comic Book Resources]]|date= February 29, 2020|access-date=July 30, 2020}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url= https://www.cbr.com/empyre-why-captain-marvel-strongest-avenger/|title=Empyre Shows Why Captain Marvel Is REALLY the Strongest Avenger|last=Galanis|first= Evangelia|publisher=[[Comic Book Resources]]|date=July 23, 2020|access-date=July 30, 2020}}</ref> During an investigation, Danvers discovers that she has a half-sister named [[Lauri-Ell]], who was genetically engineered using her mother's DNA.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.marvel.com/articles/comics/get-to-know-lauri-ell-the-newly-revealed-half-sister-of-captain-marvel|title = Get to Know Lauri-ell, the Newly Revealed Half-Sister of Captain Marvel}}</ref>

==Characterization==
With ''Ms. Marvel'' #1 in 1977, writer [[Gerry Conway]] played a significant role in the character's development, writing in his introduction to the series, "you might see a parallel between ''her'' quest for identity, and the modern woman's quest for raised consciousness, for self-liberation, for identity".<ref name="MsPrint">{{Cite comic | writer=Conway, Gerry | story=Ms. Prints | title=Ms. Marvel | issue=#1 | date=Jan. 1977}}</ref>

Ms. Marvel's uniform and abilities, however, were derived from the character's then-contemporary male counterpart: Captain Marvel. The ''Ms. Marvel'' [[comic book letter column|letters page]] ("Ms. Prints") featured letters debating whether or not the character was feminist. Reader (and frequent [[letterhack]]) Jana C. Hollingsworth took issue with Ms. Marvel's entire origin:

{{blockquote|For the eleven years I've been a comics fan, I've been proud of how Marvel resisted the temptation to create male-based heroines à la Supergirl. It's been proudly proclaimed that Ms. Marvel is ''not'' [[Jean Grey|Marvel Girl]]; well, maybe the early Marvel Girl did have weak powers and an insipid personality, but at least her powers were ''her'' powers and her personality was ''her'' personality.... I hope you can change her costume if it's all possible, and keep her on her own instead of associating her with Captain Marvel....<ref>{{Cite comic | writer=Hollingsworth, Jana C. | story=Ms. Prints | title=Ms. Marvel | issue=5 | date=May 1977}}</ref>}}

Another reader had issue with the character's outfit: "Question: where is a woman who wears long sleeves, gloves, high boots and a scarf (winter wear), and at the same time has a bare back, belly, and legs? The Arctic equator? That costume requires a few alterations."<ref>{{Cite comic | writer=Lipp, Debbie | story=Ms. Prints | title=Ms. Marvel | issue=8 | date=Aug. 1977}}</ref> These questions, and the controversial rape in ''The Avengers'' #200, caused many readers to question the character's portrayal, and whether she was a good role model for female readers:<ref>Chris Claremont, quoted in ''X-Men Companion'' #2 (Fantagraphics, 1982)</ref>

{{Blockquote|As Carol [Strickland] pointed out in her article in ''LOC'' [#1], women tend to get very short shrift in comics. They are either portrayed as wallflowers or as supermacho insensitive men with different body forms, who almost invariably feel guilty about their lack of femininity. And it's always seemed to me that, why does this have to be exclusive? Can you not have a woman who is ruthless and capable and courageous and articulate and intelligent and all the other buzz-words—heroic when the need arises, and yet feminine and gentle and compassionate, at others? That was what I tried to do with Ms. Marvel. I tried to create a character who had all the attributes that made her a top-secret agent yet at the same time was a compassionate, warm, humorous, witty, intelligent, attractive woman.}}

=== Captain Marvel ===
Captain Marvel is superhumanly strong thanks both to her hybrid organism and to her ability of enhancing her physique by absorbing energy. The specific level of strength has varied over the years, significantly increasing in recent times (especially after first becoming Binary), and is dependent on how empowered she is.

=== Binary ===
Carol Danvers first became Binary after being subjected to experiments performed by Brood scientists that physically linked her to the energy of a "[[white hole]]", allowing full control and manipulation of stellar energies, and therefore control over heat, the [[electromagnetic spectrum]] and [[gravity]]. [[Speed of light|Light speed]] travel and the ability to survive in the vacuum of space were also possible.<ref>''Ms. Marvel'' #1–3</ref>

In Carol's Binary form, her physical power and energy manipulation levels are much more powerful than in her regular state, but she reached her upper limits and overexerted herself when she greatly helped to cleanse the Earth's Sun from being gradually destroyed by an antimatter infection.<ref name="BinaryFeat"/>

=== Critical response ===
Tom Stewart of ''[[Screen Rant]]'' said that Carol Danvers, known by multiple identities such as Captain Marvel, Ms. Marvel, Binary, and Warbird, remains a constant character despite her various roles. They found Danvers to be one of Marvel Comics' strongest and most relatable characters, who has been a significant figure since 1968 and has proudly held the Captain Marvel title since 2012. Stewart praised recent writers, like Kelly DeConnick, for elevating Captain Marvel to become one of Marvel's most popular and dynamic characters in recent years.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Stewart |first=Tom |date=2021-10-14 |title=The 14 Best Captain Marvel Comic Book Stories |url=https://screenrant.com/captain-marvel-best-comic-book-stories/ |access-date=2022-08-08 |website=[[Screen Rant]] |language=en-US}}</ref> Sara Century of ''[[Syfy]]'' stated that Danvers has cultivated one of the most devoted fan followings among Marvel characters, largely due to her flaws rather than despite them.

[[File:C2E2 2013 - Karla and Carol (8683180217).jpg|thumb|Cosplayers dressed as Ms. Marvel and Captain Marvel]]Rachel Edidin of ''[[Wired (magazine)|Wired]]'' asserted that Danvers has become a fan favorite, found especially strong support from the Carol Corps, a notably close-knit and predominantly female fanbase.

They found that this fan community, which is active online and at conventions, not only celebrates Danvers but also challenges the comic book industry's historical neglect of female characters and readers. Abad-Santos praised the Carol Corps for representing Danvers's resilience and for mirroring the character's journey toward prominence and inclusivity within the Marvel universe.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Abad-Santos |first=Alex |date=2019-03-08 |title=Captain Marvel's Carol Corps: how a sisterhood of fans made Carol Danvers great again |url=https://www.vox.com/culture/2019/3/8/18249313/captain-marvel-carol-corps-fandom |access-date=2022-09-03 |website=[[Vox (website)|Vox]] |language=en}}</ref> Janelle Okwodu of ''[[Vogue (magazine)|Vogue]]'' stated that ''Captain Marvel'' achieved significant success due to its comic reboot and the enthusiastic support of its fanbase, the Carol Corps. They noted that this success could pave the way for a new wave of female-led comic titles and potentially influence the film industry similarly. Okwodu praised the film's potential to mirror the impact of ''Wonder Woman'' on box office trends, suggesting that ''Captain Marvel'' could be a catalyst for more Marvel female characters to gain prominence on the big screen.<ref name=":10" />

Elise Ringo of ''[[Tor.com]]'' found that the Carol Corps represented more than just fan enthusiasm for a single superhero; it became a symbol of inclusivity and openness within the comics community, particularly for female fans and those feeling marginalized by mainstream fandom. Ringo praised the Carol Corps for its role in fostering a new, female-oriented comic book fandom, as highlighted by the Vulture panel at NYCC 2014 titled "Carol Corps and Beyond: The Future of Female Fandom."<ref name="Ringo" /> Abraham Josephine Riesman of ''[[Vulture Magazine|Vulture]]'' noted that although ''Captain Marvel'' has not led sales charts, it has become a significant fan phenomenon. The series inspired the formation of the Carol Corps, who celebrate Danvers, feminism, and superhero comics. Riesman praised the Carol Corps for its cultural impact, which led to a dedicated panel at New York Comic Con, reflecting the strong presence and enthusiasm of its members. Riesman highlighted Danvers as an engaging character with a unique background and personal traits, contributing to the fervent excitement around her big-screen debut in 2018.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Riesman |first=Abraham Josephine |date=October 28, 2014 |title=Here's Why Superhero Fans Are Losing Their Minds Right Now |url=https://www.vulture.com/2014/10/why-marvel-fans-are-going-crazy-right-now.html |access-date=2022-10-26 |website=[[Vulture (website)|Vulture]] |language=en-us}}</ref> Caitlin Rosberg of ''[[Polygon (website)|Polygon]]'' observed that the comic book industry has historically been unwelcoming to new fans, particularly those who are not white or male.

This period saw a more welcoming environment for women, supported by other influential works and characters like those in ''Nimona'', ''Lumberjanes'', and ''Ms. Marvel''.
