Edit: On second thought, I decided not to bother listing Blue Marvel's powers. It's not like any of the current writers are showing him as powerful as he truly is anyway.

With Al Ewing writing for this next big crossover hopefully he now is at a place where he can bring Blue Marvel into the picture with a degree of visibility and consistency. I hear that Adam has appeared in Doom's book, and I hope its not as jobber material.

In the least, he'll be used in a high profile story. He may not be the star of it or whatever, but I'm certain he'll get some visibility out of it. I think Al is basically BM's shot at getting to another level. Fingers crossed.

Ha! Ouch. Welcome to the club, Dr. Brashear you're in good company here with the likes of Superman and many others!

I haven't read a ton of Blue Marvel comics, but in every single one, I've thought he was awesome. Interesting, likable, smart, and just all around cool. Not to mention thought-provoking.

Strange to think this great character has only been around for little over a decade. Hopefully with time, he'll become a Marvel mainstay and as much a household name as the likes of Mr Fantastic or Dr Strange!
