She ought to be able to turn to her own family, at the very least. Or maybe she should try and track down Michael Rossi (who may very well be William Wagner in disguise).

: O.K. So Year 3 is looking to be more intense
: in Carol's life.
:
: Interesting how he says Carol has the same
: clearance as Nick Fury. But it matters
: little now.
:
: The Binary foreshadow looks ominous. I hope
: Reed isn't putting Carol down the Dark
: Phoenix path that was originally supposed to
: be hers.
:
: So, if Carol does go on the run, who can
: she turn to ?

: The new artwork by Adriana Melo looks
: fabulous, although I will miss Lopresti.
:
: Comments....
:
: Not all of the supporting cast of “Ms.
: Marvel” are who they appear to be. Machine
: Man, an operative of the Lightning Storm
: strike team, would seem to be an eccentric
: and amusing member of the team, but he’s
: actually dangerous and quite mad. “I think
: people have thought he was just this weird,
: funny guy. But no, he’s a freaking
: sociopath!”
:
: Hmmm, I was one of the ones who thought he
: was weird but funny.
:
: The mysterious Agent Sum, another member of
: Lightning Storm, appears to be a seemingly
: normal S.H.I.E.L.D. operative, but the way
: he regenerated his entire upper body after
: it was destroyed by a blast from an alien
: ray gun in “Ms. Marvel” #21 showed he was
: anything but normal. Reed promises there
: will be some definite answers about Sum
: coming soon. “In the issue where Sum was
: introduced, we had some narration from Ms.
: Marvel that said she had to ask twice to
: read Sum’s top secret file -- and she’s got
: the same clearance as Nick Fury,” said Reed.
: “So there’s certainly been hints dropped
: along the way that there’s something special
: going on with Sum. And the opening three or
: four pages of issue #26 tell you almost
: everything you wanted to know about him.”
:
: This kind of tells me Sum is neither a Kree
: or a Skrull....but something else
: altogether.
:
: Sum isn’t the only character in “Ms.
: Marvel” exhibiting unexplained powers. In
: “Ms. Marvel” #23, the alien known as Cru
: somehow reactivated the cosmic powers Carol
: Danvers possessed in her identity as the
: heroine Binary. The return of these powers
: came with a cryptic warning from Cru: “What
: seems like a gift is in fact a curse.” “That
: was a big thing from Cru and that’s going to
: sit there for awhile,” Reed said. “Probably
: just long enough for Carol to forget Cru
: said it. It’s unclear just exactly what Cru
: meant but I’ll tell you it’s not good.” It’s
: also not entirely clear if Ms. Marvel still
: possesses her Binary powers. She seemed to
: lose them at the end of issue #24, but it’s
: still not certain if the loss was temporary
: or permanent. One thing that is for certain,
: though, the Binary abilities affected Carol
: Danvers’ state of mind. While using the
: powers in a battle with an alien Brood
: Queen, Ms. Marvel boasted her slaughter of
: the Queen’s children. “That’s almost a
: preview of where Carol is going during
: ‘Secret Invasion’ and of the attitude she’s
: developing,” Reed confirmed. “She doesn’t
: realize it right there, but she picks it up
: in issue #28. She suddenly goes, ‘Oh, wait a
: minute!’ and is back in that mind set
: again.”
:
: Cool, cool, cool. I knew there was more to
: the return of her Binary powers than meets
: the eye. Hehe. And Carol's new
: 'tude....that's already been going on,
: particularly when she let the Puppet Master
: blow himself up.
:
: In the issue’s final scene, S.H.I.E.L.D.
: director Tony Stark takes Agent Sum aside
: and tells him Carol Danvers has been
: replaced by an agent of the shape shifting
: aliens known as the Skrulls. One could view
: the scene as Tony being honest with Sum, and
: trusting him implicitly. Another perspective
: is Tony believes Sum is a Skrull, and is
: telling him a lie. “Or there’s Option C,
: Tony is a Skrull and is setting up Ms.
: Marvel,”
:
:
: Heh. Not me. I believe option D: The Skrulls
: are making Tony and others think Carol is
: a Skrull so they can create division amongst
: the upper tier SHRA peeps. >:-D
:
: It looks like the book will last until at
: least #30. Hopefully, it will still be going
: after that.
:
: “We are going to get into some of Carol’s
: family history later,” Reed continued.
: “That’s something I haven’t touched at all
: and I’ve wanted to. She had a really lousy
: relationship with her father and had these
: brothers she really liked. There’s a lot of
: fun to be had with her background.”
:
: Cool! I've been wanting to see Carol's
: parents again. God, I love this book, and
: Brian Reed is one awesome writer, my
: favorite one right now!
