CALL HER... CAPTAIN MARVEL! (1982-1983)

The second Captain Marvel to be introduced to the Marvel Universe was Monica Rambeau. And she immediately struck it big by joining the Avengers from the word 'go'. Despite not actually knowing who her namesake, Mar-Vell, was grew into her title quickly, eventually becoming Avengers chairman under that name. She'd eventually lose out on the name to Mar-Vell's son, Genis-Vell, and adopt the name Photon instead. When Genis became Photon, she dropped that name too and would eventually settle on Spectrum. Whatever codename she uses, Monica Rambeau remains a Marvel mainstay.

In her first appearance, Monica Rambeau recalls her humble beginnings as a less-than-humble maverick New Orleans cop, vying for captaincy. On old friend of her father's, Andre LeClare, asks her to investigate work carried out by Roxxon on an offshore rig to weaponise his work. Monica sabotages the experimental technology, but gains the ability to turn into different forms of energy. She turns some Mardi Gras costumes into a disguise and saves everyone on the rig when the experiment threatens to end our universe, only to be dubbed Captain Marvel by a guard and the local press...

MARVEL MONSTERS (2005)

One of Marvel's fifth-week events from 2005 centred around the classic Marvel Monsters that would invade the pages of Strange Tales , Journey into Mystery , Amazing Adventures , Tales to Astonish and Tales of Suspense every month, before the age of heroes. While it was an okay event at best, the four one-shots finally established that those behemoths from outer space and other dimensions did actually inhabit the Marvel Universe ! The highlight is the Hulk 's clash with Devil Dinosaur (a character who was first introduced in the 1970s), but we also found out what some of these creatures had been up to since their early '60 debuts, an untold tale of the time some of the Marvel U's more monstrous heroes gathered to fight them and, finally, the introduction of the  Fin Fang Four ! The featured stories aren't connected and most issues also featured reprints of classic Marvel Monster tales. Marvel Monsters: Devil Dinosaur #1 [1/2] Marvel Monsters: Monsters on the Prow...

When Captain America leaves Earth's Mightiest Heroes, the Avengers start to come apart at the seams. If that wasn't enough, two former-members of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants - Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch - are about to leave the Avengers in favour of rejoining their old boss, Magneto . Will there even be a team left? Perhaps they could consider a new member like Dane Whitman -  a guy who can't make up his mind if he's a forward-thinking or an old-school Black Knight .  Magneto has plan to keep an eye on the shipping news and raid boats that pass his mid-Atlantic island base to help finish off his machine that will turn humanity into his mindless slaves.
