The Forgotten Ms. Marvel Appreciation 2021

[616MarvelYear is LeapYear]

The story of the forgotten Ms Marvel deserves to be told.

The daughter of a career officer in the United States Army,
Sharon Ventura’s childhood was filled with disruption.
Her mother died when she was young and she had to get used
to being shipped to various towns when her dad was transferred.
The relationship with her father was difficult,
as he’d wanted a son and never praised or encouraged Ventura.

Wanting to prove herself to her father, Sharon Ventura joined the military, only to be kicked
out when she refused to testify against a roommate who was accused of cheating on exams.
Her dad refused to forgive her and died a year after the incident, with the two of them never reconciling.

Ventura spent the next few years training to improve her physical strength, earning a living as a
movie stunt double and motorcycle rider. This led her to join the Thunderiders motorbike stunt team
and while part of the group she met Ben Grimm/The Thing of the Fantastic Four.

Around the same time, Ventura became interested in a career as a professional wrestler,
wanting to join a group of female wrestlers called the Grapplers.
The manager of the team, Auntie Freeze, offered Ventura a spot if she’d take part in an
experiment to give her superhuman strength that was provided by a man called the Power Broker.

This treatment was administered by the criminal Dr Karl Malus as part of a scheme to make
the test subjects addicted to a new drug that would make them dependent on the substance in future.
Ventura realised she was cheating herself and refused to go through with the final experiment.

When Auntie Freeze found out, she ordered the Grapplers to capture Ventura.
Even though she hadn’t been injected with the final drug, Ventura gained
superhuman strength and was able to defeat the Grapplers with the help of the Thing.
It was during this time that Ventura called herself Ms Marvel and dedicated herself to fighting crime.

I miss Sharon! I really hope she gets some screentime in FF soon in FF!

[Hypestyle]

if she becomes human (but powered) again someday, I hope she can be part of a team. With another name. And a friendly meeting with Kamala.

[Phoenixx9]

I miss Sharon.

It would be great seeing her running around as Ms Marvel sometimes and also able to change into She-Thing for other adventures that call for her increased powers in that form.

[Will Evans]

She’ll never be THE Ms Marvel again.

They may as well revamp her and her powers.

Hoping 2021 will be a busy year for Shary

[616MarvelYear is LeapYear]

...2021 MIGHT be the year that the Marvel Cinematic Universe introduces
the live action version of The Forgotten Ms. Marvel in TFATWS Disney+ series.

Perhaps by having The Forgotten Ms. Marvel make
a cameo appearance in TFATWS Disney+ series?

[616MarvelYear is LeapYear]

The Forgotten Ms. Marvel was a very troubled person,

trying to work through what happened to her

[616MarvelYear is LeapYear]

while in Dr. Karl Malus' clutches, the Power Broker's tame scientist!

The Forgotten Ms. Marvel's boyfriend...Lt. Mike Lynch
MIGHT a live action version of this character appear in TFATWS Disney+ series?

[Phoenixx9]

Has Sharry been seen at all in 2021? I have not heard of any appearances anywhere.

[Chris0013]

Just my $0.02 worth...but making her 'She-Thing' was just stupid. It was 'Thing needs a Thing GF' or some nonsense. There are other people who got other powers from cosmic rays...would have been cooler to me if she had gotten TK abilities like Vector of the U-Foes.

[Phoenixx9]

We have enought people with TK abilities. We do not need any more right now.

Vector, as you mentioned, is one and he gained his powers that way. Sharry would just be a duplicate of him and another in a long line of those with TK.

But she would still have her Power Broker strength which would give her a mix of powers. As she thing she just did what Ben did.

[Phoenixx9]

There is unlimited potential for powers that could be given with cosmic rays.

Let's give Sharry a power unique to her perhaps, but at least one that has not been so overused (abused) for the past 40 years. This would also include TP too.

And I would be fine with that....just not make her a she thing.
