    You're right, she is an author, but her book was based on her adventures as Binary, I think? Which means it's not really sci-fi, but instead science FACT!

    Yeah, but her audience didn't know that because she still had a secret identity at that point right? She was even on a talk show doing publicity for the book and the interviewer was talking about how she made the story seem so "real". I'm going strictly from memory on this stuff and it was so long ago I can't remember what book that happened in. I find it strange given the character's in universe popularity that a streaming service desperate for content hasn't gotten in touch with her to make a series based off her book.

    You know, I thought she didn't have a secret identity. Wouldn't it have been outed when Rogue hospitalised her in the 80s?

    I guess this confirms she is pretty much the strongest superhero.

    did she die from that multi planetary explosion???

    They didn't show if she died, i think she could survive that since she can absorb the power of the stones but i don't know if she'll return, they want to make Ultron look invincible.

    So is Carol now the MCU's go-to woman out of time considering her 80's/90's references?

    She had it up until the 90's/2000's, she had to actually come forward and reveal it when she was addressing the consequences of her alcoholism.

    I feel like if she'd survived she would've kept trying to fight him, unless she was just in a massive state of recovery form the blast.

    I don't think I got her as far as being a popular author -- if I remember right, she had a manuscript, and Tracy Walters thought it was great and was going to put her in touch with people, but I don't know if we got any further than that.

    So I gave that bit to Starfighter, over in ASTRO CITY...

    Okay, so Carol wasn't on a show hyping a book. She just wrote a manuscript. Never give away your old comics folks.

    I don't know for sure that some other writer didn't have her on a show promoting a book. I just don't think I did...

    Yeah she wasnt on a show giving her book publicity.

    The sci-fi semi-autobiographical book was published and used by brian reed in a story with a reality warper called the Storyteller

    https://www.cbr.com/captain-marvel-c...velist-binary/

    This article by Brian Cronin goes into more detail from the claremont/conways initial take with her non-fiction, to
    Kurt Busiek's taking her into fiction, and brian reed doing a superhero story with it

    But Brian Reeds overarching arc with her did have a whole publicist angle which mightve given you a mandela effect
