Carol Wednesday is up, folks...

Unfortunately I have no idea what's going on in WoTR at the moment so you're gonna have to bear with me for a bit...
No Carmen Carnero this time, damn. Another Italian artist, though? This Martello ain't bad.
Also, bump if you're reading, please.
A BuckyNat is fine too.
>Carol will never give you bedroom eyes in the morning
Why live?
Thompson has literally never written a good comic.
This is way better than the "oh, you're alive again" thing they do in other series to rush up the explanation as to why someone's suddenly alive again and nobody bats an eyelash.
Wrong. This is actually good.
>BONK
Can we get a Captain Marvel comics without first stars please
We can already guess what happened here...
No, not amnesia, you smartasses.
It's a body-swapping episode!
He's doing exactly what anyone would do in his position, Carol. Don't blame the guy.
You mean "guest stars"?
A comfy, fun event tie-in to break up some heaviness
Based Kelly
>trust me, do that and you're just trading one headache for another
So meta
Hah, this is good banter.
Agreed.
She can't even make the hand gestures LMAO
And that's it! Given the way this went down, I'm willing to be the next issue is gonna be even better.
That was fun. Go support it at your LCS or digitally, even if it's a tie-in.
Bad art
shitty body-switch
Kelly thompson should stay far, far, far away from Strange. She does not know how to write him at all
This except
>ywn body swap with Carol
based cape.
captain marvel looks terrible in that full body suit.
Right, she makes stephen sound like some whiny teen
Funny thing is he has almost been in the exact same situation before where he lost all his magic knowledge because of some magic shit, but he handled himself much better. To be fair, he was with Clea, who is a far better partner than Carol
Also, the cape is sentient now?
bump
>Nat trying not to laugh at Carol
CUTE
Skrullin'
that's nice
I mean, even Carol knows it
Good ol' Nat, saying it like it is
Strange isn’t controlling though. Manipulative, but not really controlling
>Comfy event tie-in that double ships so it's over in a month
Dunno if that's Kelly, Brunstad or Shogun but any way good job.
>that quality
C'mon, user.
Nat gets some great expression work in this issue
A good fill-in for Carnero.
Yikes. Thompson can’t write Stephen at all
Carol no!
Thompson can't write at all.
Also, the cover art has been consistently awful.
>Eisner nominee and perennial best Marvel writer "can't write"
Shoo comicsgate
This was surprisingly funny, thanks for the storytime.
>Also, the cover art has been consistently awful.
I'm gonna enjoy your tears when Mark Brooks begins from #9 as the regular cover artist.
>that monologue in America
>every single thing about West Coast Avengers
>this shit
She definitely can't write for shit.
She’s decent on this title, but damn she shouldn’t have tried roping in Strange if she can’t get his voice even close to right
>>that monologue in America
That wasn't her.
>disliking comfy coast avengers
Please leave
i read this out of boredom but it is actually pretty good, i might start to catch up with the older issues.
>cringe coast faggotry
It was literally "America: Part 2".
You didn't even read it if you actually think this, specially since America in particular barely had a focus in it.
Carnero is Spanish which is actually rare
Instead, Italian artists in Marvel are a dime a dozen lately
>your tears
>Mark Brooks
Is Marvel going to force him to draw her ugly?
He has never, and I repeat, NEVER drawn an ugly Carol.
Bump
Did anybody bother storytiming War of the Realms? Did Carol get to do anything?
Yeah, she leads a "Strikeforce" team which is where she teams up with Venom, Captain Britain, Deadpool and Bucky for high risk missions. I am not actually following the event though, I don't care for it, but I did check that issue in particular. No idea if she's more involved than that.
Only #1 was bad Connor stepped it up after that
>Venom teaming up with Carol
Now only if it was Flash. They'd make a pretty good duo.
I actually don't get what the deal is with Venom right now, since apparently it isn't even "Venom" at all but the symbiote alone? And that someone is pretending to be Eddie?
He's also in Savage Avengers somehow, but that's even more confusing. I stopped reading Cates' Venom early on but I get the feeling he made up that thing about not being really "the" Venom just so he could implicitly avoid the event.
They were on the Guardians together but they didn't interact at all really.
Bendis writing a lackluster GOTG despite including the characters he felt most comfortable writing? Color me shocked, shocked!
Hey I recognize that artist, he made teen Jean cute, CUTE!!
Its pretty ok. better than the feminist apocalypse arc we had
Cute couple.
>Nat and Enchantress bodyswap
>Strange kills Nat
>again
Some murderCarol.
Only panel she's in.
Nice.
KT's first issue reminded me of Reed's
Now this in the second story
Neat
Damn, that last panel is perfect for a no-context thread.
Since this is the Wednesday Carolthread.
Fearless #1 Jen Bartel variant
In theory Strange should be still able to use a lot of magic in Carol's body
I'll go and blame it on Amora's doing.
This issue was inexcusable garbage.
Or, indeed, anyone.
>Eisner nominee and perennial best Marvel writer
Get the fuck out of here. This hack won an Eisner? Then again, so did Fraction. They really do give those away with cracker jacks, don't they?
A Cap Marvel issue that was kinda funny to read? Is this real life?
I was not aware of this book. Is it an A-Force thing?
...Tears of joy? Because that cover is a beaut.
No it wasn't.
Not all of it.
Not that it was great.
But it wasn't terrible.
>Making that outfit and that haircut look good
We do not deserve dogs and we do not deserve Mark Brooks.
She is actually likable in her tie-in because she is written as a professional, human being.
Carol's always had good books and Kelly's never written a bad one.
Nope, it's a Carol Sue & Ororo mini
What is she actually doing there? Is she just randomly hitting a piece of metal? Isn't there supposed to be an anvil there?
Sadly, that is true.
The art on that was better, though.
It wasn't kind of funny to read, it was awful.
The dialogue was a fucking war crime.
Rude Natasha, at least Strange doesn't go team fascist the first chance he gets.
>Nope, it's a Carol Sue & Ororo mini
Okay that's actually better than what I had in mind. I want it!

Strange should be able to use magic no matter what.
I mean even in Carol's body, he can do it outside of his own body so it's not like he loses his powers being in her body.
There's a line about that.
It's right at the bottom of
That's convenient.
I mainly liked that it showed what was happening in Britain and why Captain Britain isn't laying waste to the entire army. And for Carol picking her team for people who will go to war and not hold back from killing
Not his fault carol is retarded
Kelly a size queen confirmed same as Leah?
>female writer
all of Kelly Thompson's main characters sound the same.
This reads more like Kate Bishop or her Rogue than Carol
Nah, they really don't.

No, it actually was that bad. In terms of writing, it failed in every way possible. It's lile it tried to be Great Lakes Avengers without understanding a single reason why anyone liked Great Lakes Avengers.
It was really good actually.
>homophobia
yikes
>No, it actually was that bad. In terms of writing, it failed in every way possible.
I read your whole post, nod sagely, but ultimately disagree.
>Strange is pro-dykehair
Absoutely based.
That's some high quality fanart. Saving.
hot
So good that it was canceled a few issues in.
*dabs*
Do not conflate quality with sales.
>inb4 "it had neither lmao honk honk"
It wasn't a great book but it certainly wasn't as terrible as you make it look. It had its charm.
It should've been more ambitious writing-wise than it was given the artist team behind it, that's for sure.
LIcensing expo, Carol representing.
Strange is a lucky guy (female).
The quality was shit for the plethora of reasons already listed, and the sales were also shit.
That's also saying a lot being published by Marvel, who's fans barely have standards to begin with.
I can never look at that Toy's Story doll without thinking of the doll from "Happy!" anymore.
Also is that Andy Park's art? Curious how they specifically went for these three.
Doesn't look like Andy Park, + Carol's design looks more like the animated version.
Carol is a big fan of redhead spiders
>I can never look at that Toy's Story doll without thinking of the doll from "Happy!" anymore.
what a slut
Licensed Carol loves the double-belt look for some reason.
"My Kree Strapon should help identify if you are a Skrull or not...its designed to maximise pleasure, you'll find yourself wanting more, in fact."
How the hell does this make any sense. She is an russian from a russian KGB school. Hugging, specialy as a suprised would get marvel stabed. I had an instructor that was post II chechen war at school, and you couldn't start talking to him when his back was turned, because his natural reaction was to knee you. And he wasn't a super soldier just a regular teacher that was in the army.
wait... was that a gratuitous pose in a Captain Marvel comic??
Hahaha, what?
Natasha might be a well trained assassin, but she's definitely not autistic enough to do that. It's just a hug.
Apparently it’s Marvel’s as well seeing as it’s happening at the same time as another body swap plot in Marvel Team-Up
Speaking of, that arc just wrapped up and next month we get Carol, Kamala and not-Mar-Vell
Putri regular
>"Lets do a switch bodies thing with Dr Strange"
Wheres the conflict? Whats the point?
>Nooo! Stop having fun!
Would be an argument if it was fun.
It is so I guess we win.
>Stop pointing out the flaw of "Switching bodies with the all powerful wizard"
>Nooo! Stop having brain
fixed
I refer you to the apocryphal comment by Lucius Flavius Silva: "'We have won a rock in the middle of a wasteland, on the shores of a poisoned sea."
If you cover up her mouth, her eyes do not display any joy.
Who gives this much of a shit? It's comic book body-swap, not some rigorous treatise of mind transferal through experimental means.
>"Oh wow I can't even read the part where it says his abilities are keyed to his body and he's not in his body anymore because his soul has been shifted, unlike astral teleportation that always tethers the soul to its host because I'm a retard who actually has never read Doctor Strange! comicks r hard"
So what spell will Carol manage to finally get off in the next issue? Crimson Bands?

What a failure, even the Kamala thread has more traction, why is marvel so inclined to shill this character and trash writers?
It's becoming old hat and has to put to sleep.
It's a War of the Realms tie-in. Beyond whatever idea you have behind this, not a single one of the threads for the tie-ins have gained traction. In fact, not even the event itself has.
>None of the captain marvel comics and trash writers like Aaron and Thompson have gained traction
FTFY
Well if you put it that way yes, Aaron's event is brutally competent, as it does exactly what it set out to do without surprises, so there's very little to discuss and no one really has benefited from reading it beyond those who are already invested in the story.
Thank you for your bump IP counter user.
>Morning user, what's for breakfast?
Oh user, I'm adding this to my collection. I'm gonna crop some later too.
you bitch
Fuck off Strange. Long hair Carol is the best Carol. With Warbird leotard
>Gerry Drew's secret origins
>Unfortunately I have no idea what's going on in WoTR at the moment
No one cares what's going on in the event. We just hope for cute moments in random books.
It's like the opposite of Stohl's run, where the event tie-in got way more grim than the regular book.
I've only seen a few tie-ins with this event, feels like the whole thing is mostly feel good goofy shit. The Champions one is all about Cyclops seeing the Champions again, and Agents of Atlas has two pages devoted to Asians eating Spam.
In all fairness, they were Secret Empire tie-ins, not exactly a comfy event at all.
I actually felt that A-Force redeemed Carol just slightly during CWII. I enjoyed that tie in, it helped that they got back the artist who did A-Force for Secret Wars
Kelly Thompson!
That arc was done by Siqueira though, not Molina.
Medusa was at her peak in this arc. Goddamn it I want her back.
Blame Perlmutter, as always
Kelly talking about the favorite thing she wrote today
Story would've been better if body swap/mind swap Black Widow and Carol than Doctor Strange
Carol in BW
Natasha in Capt. Marvel
I actually loved this arc, cause Nico...I love Nico, she is one of my fav charecters at Marvel and A-Force did her well..and I'm happy she's being done well in Runaways again. I honestly thought she would be another kid forgotten. But writers keep bringing her up and I love it
Cringe.
Why?
Carol's already been a superspy though, and the story's about her.
>Abigail back
unironic YAAS
god I hate Land
You can tell Land used the same porn model to trace Carol as the one he used for Storm.
Li'l Louis making videos for Marvel now.
Absurdly exploitable.
While the thought grates, it's odd she didn't put it on. She could have handled the effects. Why didn't she?
Cute
Cap told her to get it to the van, so she went for the van.
Is that Eric Josten?
AHEM
To all Carol fans gathered here
You will never truly be women
'tis.
Yes, very cute, except this didn't happen. Why not?
I don't have that fetish, so I am not bothered. I'd rather fuck her.
so enchantress swapped herself with nat at the same time right
Forgot pic.
I hadn't considered this, it would be the ultimate keikakku.

What does that word mean? Could you provide some sort of translator's note?
(keikaku means "plan")

>ACE Comic Con
>Wendy Lawson calls her "Ace" in the movie
Echantress is cool. How come they didn't use her in the movies?
Well they wouldn't let shield use her so they probably had plans. But then Suicide Squad happened.
Well that would explain some things. Wonder if appeal to vanity can make it unhappen.
Another Marvel 1000 variant.
Why would a knife hurt Carol
I don't hate this, Carol is looking cute again and she's fun. I hope it continues.
Selling well, so it'll make it easily to the next mass-renumber without a weird Life-esque-mini stopgap.
