STEALING FROM THE STRANGES!
Captain Marvel's taken up a new profession: thievery! Not that she had much choice in the matter, with Yuna Yang shuttling her to the Negative Zone every time Carol's do-gooder attitude gets in the way. The Captain's gotta get these Nega-Bands off so she can reclaim her life, and who better to ask advice from than the Sorcerer Supreme, Clea Strange? But when Yuna's hands get sticky again, Carol finds herself in the sorcerer's crosshairs...
Rated T+
Captain Marvel #3 takes a diversion from the main story arc as Yuna faces off with beasts in the Sanctum Sanctorum and we check in on Doctor Strange and Clea. Its a fun story, but I felt Carol resolved a big problem in the issue way too easily. Otherwise, the character interplay was great and the issue ends with a solid cliffhanger. Read Full Review
Its a slow start, and as we continue on this journey the nagging questions still remain: why hasnt Carol reached out to someone regarding her current situation, where shes forced to trade places with Yuna in the Negative Zone, or what exactly is up with the the Nega Bands. Its a great premise, but the team keeps missing the mark when it comes with each new issue. Read Full Review
It does seem that some big answers are on the horizon, and once some of those questions are answered, those areas of the book should fall right into place. Read Full Review
Slightly improved from last two issues but mostly because the artist seems to be getting more into it and really does a great job in many of these panels, plus the use of color pops out nice. The low score however remains because the writing is still bad and there's very little room given to develop the characters. There has been very little reason to like Yuna other than she has to be there for the plot, and Carol is just being used to progress Yuna story. SO this feels more like a Yuna comic than Captain Marvel so far
