Carol Danvers is a fan-favorite Avenger and in 2014 she’s going higher! At New York Comic Con Marvel revealed an All-New Captain Marvel #1 by current writer Kelly Sue DeConnick and artist David Lopez.
“We’re taking her cosmic,” announced DeConnick at the panel, “We are taking her into space in a Flash Gordon / Buck Rogers, my way or the highway kind of way.”
When DeConnick launched a new solo series she focused on Carol’s experience as a pilot and that will continue to be an inspiration to writing the Avenger.
“She’s always trying to move up and we’re going to let her go.”
Carol’s new adventures come after the events in The Enemy Within and Infinity. DeConnick explain how those huge arcs affect the next volume of the series.
“I think the two events provide direct impetus for her re-launch—and again, that’s literal. I’m in a tricky spot here because I don’t want to give too much away about the Carol Corps issue—issue #17 of the current run—but Captain Marvel steps up and pays a heavy price to live that idea of “hero” in “Enemy Within,” then feels disconnected from herself and her fellows in INFINITY then finds a way to reconnect to a part of herself in CAPTAIN MARVEL #17, which directly influences the choice she makes that leads to the new number #1.” she told Marvel.com.
All-New Captain Marvel #1 soars into shops in March.
Kelly De Connick will be appearing at GeekGirlCon 2013 in Seattle this weekend.
