Speaking of costumes

I know she's not the first female Captain Marvel (or even the second) but Monica's time with the title was a long time ago, and no one even knows who Phylla is. I'm fairly sure Carol's held the title longer than either of them at this point? Not sure how long Monica had it.
You're probably right about Carol being seen by some people as a representative of "forced diversity" or a "SJW agenda" or whatever. People annoy me. Representation isn't pie, there's enough to go around.

Honestly I don't have an issue with Carol having short hair, it fits and makes sense, even if I prefer her with long hair.
That said I do have an issue with how she's been portrayed since KSD left. How has the current run been?

Mediocre. Not even bad. Bad is usually at least still interesting. Bad still gives you something to talk about. Stohl's Captain Marvel run has not been interesting enough to qualify as bad.
It is almost aggressively bland and forgettable. I plan on finishing the current arc, and then I'm dropping it.
Well, good news for Carol: She's now on the main Avengers team!
Jason Aaron and Ed McGuinness are the creative team.
Favorites: Natasha Romanova, Dinah Lance, Janet Van Dyne, Selina Kyle, Emma Frost, Kitty Pryde, Kate Bishop, Sharon Carter, Sue Storm Richards, Carol Danvers

Sorry to kill your hopes so fast... I was sad when I saw it too.
Finally she is back with the Avengers but Im not feeling the team or art
When it comes to the art, Steve and Thor look terrible on that cover, but I like how he draws Carol.
I'm down for it.
I like the streamlined, "Big 7" approach they're using here (plus the Rider) and I've enjoyed Aaron's Thor, plus McGuiness is a solid talent. Though I may have a bias there, he lives nearby and shops at the same LCS I do. Or he used to anyway, haven't seen him around in a long time.
It definitely gets a issue or three, if for no other reason than I need to get my Carol fix somewhere, and won't be going back to her solo until the quality jumps up a whole lot.
