Is she just unfixable? Should we replace her with Kamala already? Clearly Marvel likes putting her in everything instead of Carol as of late, just make her Captain Marvel atp

No, push characters people actually like.

We all know how to get people to like Carol again, and it's to just retire Kamala and let Carol be Ms Marvel again. Just let her be a cheesecake bimbo in a swimsuit again and people will forget everything they disliked her for pretty quickly.

>>154279394
The only way we get that version of her is if we kill the KSD version and literally bring back pre-captain Carol.

To this day I can never understand what's going on with the handful of Carolfags on this site. They have a general that has been going on since at least 2014 yet it''s always been a ghost town, they show up any time she appears on page to Stan and they just flat out lie about the character and her sucess.
Is it a long con troll job? Are they actually genuinely this delusional? Is it just a zombie bot set to run indefinitely? A mod's fiefdom? Man I don't know and I doubt I'll ever know since they seem to be immune to breaking kayfabe.
>>
>>154282540
I don't know if it's just some really committed trolls, or some shills Disney paid to create the impression Carol had a massive passionate fandom, and just forgot to give a few of them new assignments to after Carol's movie.

They can't be sincere and as delusional as they pretend to be, can they? The one that keeps insisting Carol should be the new Venom gives it away, it's clearly a bot or a schizo doing a bit and thinking it's funny.

Not just in I had to make like four OPs in a row because the only other baker took a break.
>>
>>154284424
I think it's less that Brie quit and more that Brie just has no enthusiasm left.

Remember that Captain Marvel is her worst role and overshadowed her Oscar winning one from a year prior, and that she more or less just played the "MOVR OVER BOYS" figure they asked her to for her brand. (Pretty much every irl report of her paints her as being a relatively chill person. Especially in regards to how well she treats wait staff apparently)

Oh yeah! Because after her failed game, unwatched television show and the biggest Marvel bomb of all time, I'm sure people are just hungry for more of her! Can't wait to get more! Next time it'll work! Another 200 million game! Another 150 million show! Another 300 million movie! We've spent north of half a billion dollars pushing this goddamn character but by god the next one will finally work! Just one more time I swear one more it'll work one more hundred million dollars it'll work!

Make her Ms.Marvel again, and have Kamala die in a ditch somewhere

Kamala's finished as a character. They threw her to the X-Men abyss so they could never see or speak of her again after all the failed attempts to make her stick.

She can't demand the big paychecks after her movie bombed and Captain Marvel as a brand merch wise is in the fucking gutter. Look up how much everyone not Robert Downey Jr got paid for Avengers 1 and you'll get an idea of how little sway she would have in contract negotiations now that they're not certain she would add anything to the tally.

RDJ and Chris Evans KNOW they're draws for Doomsday, and their merch is selling great. They can demand big paychecks. Her? Not so much.

Anything is fixable. But so long as they keep trying to push her as the "Wonder Woman" of Marvel and as a leader of the Avengers... people are still gonna hate on her.
Even at her most beloved, she was not a top dog character. So forcing her on everyone just ends up harboring resentment.
I feel like the immediate post-House of M Carol was the best take of the character. A C-lister trying to become better, striving to reach that ideal version of herself. Still a fuck up, with her history of alcholism and baggage, but pushing forward.
Take her back to that. Stop trying to make her a leader and an inspiration and all this other nonsense. Make her a C/B lister, one of the 'lesser' boys and gals, and then just do basic superheroing while having her eyes on becoming a better person and hero.
Its so fucking easy.

DC still calls there's Shazam in official capacity. Mar-Vell is dead. Monica doesn't use the name anymore. Genis-Vell doesn't use the name anymore. So she should have free claim to the title.
Yet even her fans aren't comfortable with calling her that.
>>
>>154295451
That's my point.
There's already too many characters with that name, and most people associate it either with Billy Batson or maybe Mar-Vell.

DC only time using captain marvel is in the oneshot written by Morrison.
Nobody in DC or Marvel use Captain Marvel but Carol which made people calling her Carol even more sad than Spin situation

Well if they don't want to use Wasp, Black Widow seems to disappear from stories even when she was the leader, and Scarlet Witch is unavailable, then it is her by default.

How about Marvel try putting new heroes in the spotlight for once? And I don't mean new legacy characters, I mean new standalone heroes who occupy their own sections of the universe. Marvel is dead now because everything is about continuing the legacy of 50+ year old comics and they can't make anything new.

Not a bit or challenge but general interest, do we have any statistics about demographics for comic-books audience? I always thought it was only really old-heads who buy the floppies or visit their LCS. Someone young is at best reading the things online through a subscription, very likely just RCO but they have entire classic runs they can binge.

The youth crowd Marvel covets are put off by the writers as a rule being in their fifties if not sixties. And view the attempts to keep the 'youth' like sooner selling Spider-Man's marriage to the devil than let him mature with more responsibility, as beyond misguided. Just pathetic hail mary appeals from the blind and dumb. I dunno, I'm in my twenties and nothing Brevoorts clique has been something I've ever been fucking thankful for.
>>
>>154293703
Why didn't Marvel just own him though? I mean I am kinda glad they didn't before, but still why?
>>
>>154303964
Because a different company made Captain Marvel.
>>
>>154296098
>Do they just hate Avengers or something?
They're doing some kind of Benis-era New Avengers nostalgia project, that's the era where Marvel were pushing Carol and Spider-Woman as the main girls of the Avengers franchise, over Wasp, Scarlet Witch and Black Widow, so we're getting Carol on the team yet again.

>>154297073

i also feel a lasting loved costume is also part of what makes a character memorable, danvers suit, hair and body proportions change every 5 months. no one seems to like what came before and always has to change it up a bit.

>>154297109
Regardless of being an Avenger twice now, Storm will always be primarily one of the X-Men, and outside of the 1990s, X-Men solo books that aren't Wolverine or Deadpool don't tend to last long.

As for Wanda, look past the recent push and look at the previous 16 years of Marvel intentionally sabotaging her as a character and repeatedly trying to make people dislike her. Her 2016 solo book only happened because a name value writer wanted to write her and pitched a book, despite her MCU debut, Marvel didn't originally have any plans to do anything with her, and the comics' reaction to her getting more popular in the MCU was to start demonizing her even more in the X-books again. And then the MCU sabotaged her as well, and when the comics finally get told to start pushing her, they don't seem to get what made her popular in the MCU. It's no surprise she's struggling to gain traction, and Marvel keep relaunching her book with the same writer even though it's clear it's not working, but despite all this, Avengers fans still like Wanda more than Carol.

Carol was a cunt the moment they character assassinated her from being the bombshell blonde who embraced her feminine features as a strength. Someone who worked with the Avengers, and didn't blame other people for her problems and groom little girls into her child soldiers. To a buzzcut small chested dyke with resting bitch face, with aspirations of a cruel dictator that vindicated Tony Stark. All because Marvel needed a Wonder Woman stand in, and let the ship be run by lesbian activists who put politics over talent for storytelling.

> despite all this, Avengers fans still like Wanda more than Carol
Honestly, I’m not the least bit stumped to see that. For all that Marvel has tried erasing or downplaying Wanda, the girl is incredibly important to the history of the Avengers as a member and friend, her character just fucking oozes drama with little effort just from having Magneto as a dad and Vision as a love-interest, and the level of character assassination she’s survived over the years makes her never-ending “redemption” arc much more believable considering she has had to basically crawl and scrape for every last shred of forgiveness anyone is willing to throw her due to how petty the writers are. Compared to that, Carol Danvers is nothing special. Problems with alcoholism and feelings of inadequacy that she wants to make for is covered by Tony Stark and Hank Pym already, and even at her lowest lately people forgive her super easily. I don’t have a special love for Wanda (I found her character very mopey and self-pitying at points over the years), but I can definitely see why her popularity persists in spite of Marvel’s best efforts.
>>

In some ways it's like Falcon becoming Captain America, Kamala being the new Ms Marvel, or Miles being a second Spider-Man. These things are seen as 'progressive' victories that backtracking on would be such bad PR that they won't do it even though they know they're losing money on them.

They did briefly try reverting Sam back to being the Falcon, but got forced into changing him back to a second Captain America, and those other characters aren't going away no matter how many times they fail.

>We haven't had a real Avengers lineup since Busiek
We still had real Avengers lineups until Disassembled.

The second half of Waid's run after Miles, Kamala and Sam left was almost a 'real' Avengers lineup, and the run that just ended was the most "real Avengers lineup' they've had since Disassembled.

I doubt the character is fixable in the comics but for the MCU I think she is. MCU needs to pair her with Thor. Make the 2 characters be forced to work together on a mission. They have terrible chemistry together so they spend half the movies bickering and shittalking each other. Thor should be allowed to really go in on her instead of just holding up Capt Marvel as an untouchable waman character. Each could probably do the mission solo and beat the bad guy no problem but they work so poorly together that the whole things falls apart. In the end they finally learn to work together just enough to save the day. They learn a little bit about each other and have more of a mutual understanding but still are like oil and water.

In the 70s, as a pre-Ms Marvel normie, she had a small role in the Kree/Skrull War, then in the later years of the decade going into the early 80s, she was around as Ms Marvel for the Korvac Saga and most of the Michelinie run, with her most prominent role being in the Marcus story.

Then she gets written out of comics for over 15 years because she just wasn't that popular, and gets brought back in the Busiek/Perez run, lasting into early in the Johns run, and come back for parts of Benis.

There are huge chunks of Avengers history where she's just not around, Marvel in the 2000s had to literally get rid of Jan and Wanda to try and pretend Carol and Jessica were the main heroines of Avengers.

Carol as Ms. Marvel wasn't particulary successful and a lot of the ill will to character comes from her last era.

Falcon being Captain America long-term is really strange. It lowered his uniqueness from the only Falcon to one of several Captain Americas, and his biggest draw is still flying and bird telepathy. Also the name Captain America has a military flavor that doesn't match him.

At this point if they're going to keep Carol around, the MCU should just take the Superhero Squad route and play her as a bitchy middle management character who shows up occasionally to give orders to the real heroes the stories are actually about, and they just complain about her all the time.

Or actually pair her up with War Machine like in the comics just because seeing Larsen and Cheadle try to act like they're in love will be hilariously awkward.

Yeah, the bad parts of Avengers history.

I love this design because it's just the best of her old and new Ms. Marvel costumes.

Carol got her own solo book back in the 70s, and again repeatedly in the 2000s and 2010s, the era the MCU has speedrun towards adapting, and she has the company name in both of her heroine identities, so she's seen as a priority to the company, all of which led to them trying to reinvent her into a Wonder Woman-tier "main female character of the company".

In contrast, no matter how important or popular Wanda is within Avengers, most of her history was in being a team book character, and most of the small amount of material she'd headlined pre-2015 was largely shared with Vision, a pairing Marvel editorial appears to have entrenched generational levels of opposition to on a similar level to Spider-Man/MJ. No matter how much Avengers fans liked her, no matter how important she was to that book, internally Marvel considered her expendable, and unimportant enough that they could just turn her into a crazy villain in someone else's story, and do it again in the MCU because it didn't matter if it was good or popular, people had heard of it. It doesn't help that even though she only appeared in a tiny number of X-Men comics, to a lot of them this will always take priority over her decades in Avengers, and they just can't or won't see past Magneto, a character who has a lot of fans and apologists within Marvel, it's not likely to change until the current generation of writers and editors is replaced by people who grew up on the MCU, much the same as the comics' problem with wanting Avengers to be an 'all star' comic ever since the Bendis era, and neglecting a lot of the pre-Bendis Avengers despite the MCU making them stars.

That Carolfag is either doing a bit again, or genuinely believes most of the Roy Thomas era, plus Lee, Englehart, Stern, Simonson, Byrne, Hama, Harras, Heroes Reborn and all of West Coast Avengers, all of it was worse than Avengers #200 because that had Carol in it.
