Carol Danvers must confront a dark family secret in the new five-issue mini-series by Paul Jenkins and Lucas Werneck.
Captain Marvel: Dark Past kicks off when an attack on New York City by a group called DNVR exposes a dark part of Carol’s family history, first touched upon in her former career as a journalist.
“Captain Marvel is such a great character who has also appeared as Ms. Marvel, Warbird and even Binary. With such a rich and complex past, under the guidance of so many amazing and talented writers, there is a ton of material for me to mine. I hope to bring my brand of characterization and storytelling to this great character, to examine what makes Carol who she is, and perhaps even to bring out a new wrinkle or two”, Jenkins said.
Werneck said, “I’m very excited to be working on this project. First of all, Carol is an incredible and powerful character, with many layers and conflicts, which always presents a good challenge. Also, I’m very excited to be working with Paul Jenkins. The conversations we’ve had about the comics, the story, and Carol’s conflicts for this project have made me very enthusiastic about everything that’s to come.”
