I think people should know her sexual background more than her being supergirl or wonder woman LOL

[Oberon]

Previously [full disclaimer: not reading her book and haven't mostly in recent years) I've always liked the character - a lot. All the way back to her "real" origins.

This is not going to make me start reading the book, but rather the opposite.

I could handle this for the movie iteration, but not for the book.

Calling her Carr-Ell is fair game. Supergirl is on TV running around calling herself Kara Danvers.

Supergirl was created in the 1950s with the secret identity of Linda Danvers - of course, when Carol was created a decade later she was just a love interest, not a superheroine, so nobody had to foresight to give her a different name. Carol's the one who ripped Kara off.

Isn't Linda Danvers the name Peter David used? For the Angel version?

I love how you had to find out by reading an article when the last issue came out about 3 weeks ago. Suggesting you dont read her comics yet you have enough input to suggest she's Marvel's attempt at a Superwoman again without reading the actual story.

Her biology is more attuned to Aquaman, Namor, Jon Kent then it is any full kryptonian. Its her own thing among Kree given she's a Kree/Human hybrid.

He's complaining about the Car-Ell thing which was revealed today.

All this revision seems un-necessary. This is reaching into Guy Gardner territory.

I forgot all about Guy "Hey! I just found out I'm an super powered alien, just in time to compensate for my not being a Green Lantern anymore!" Gardener.

That was still the worst ever, lol.

This smacks more of the "You were never human, you only THOUGHT you were" stuff that got pulled in the 80's.

Usually done to explain why lethal doses of radiation didn't kill some Silver Age character outright.

Does the children of Captain Marvel mean anything anymore ?

[Tofali]

Well she has been described as Marvel's superman why not go for the House of El name too? House of Car-Ell I love this lol! the ridiculousness of the character keeps reaching new heights.

Does the children of Captain Marvel mean anything anymore ?

nobody gives a crap about his children
