Major Marvel and DC comic book moments fans should know about (July 2021)

Carol Danvers makes more enemies
Comic book: Captain Marvel No. 30
Captain Marvel returned from the future with a purpose. She was going to take care of Ove (the future son of the Enchantress and Namor) before he could rule the world. Since Ove has magical abilities on top of his super strength, Captain Marvel needed to negate his magic. This leads her down a path to learn magic. One that gets her laughed at.
In the end, she defeats Ove by tricking him into drinking a liquid that removes his magic. Carol later meets with Doctor Strange and tells him what she’s done. Strange gives her a warning saying, “Darkness clouds this path.”
Why is this important?
Carol Danvers already has villains on Earth and in space. The last thing she needs are beings with magical powers coming after her. They can come from anywhere (as we’ve seen in Guardians of the Galaxy).
This is going to be a tough year for Carol Danvers. However, it’s going to be good for Carol Danvers fans. We’ll get to see her battle beings that she can’t defeat with just her power and abilities. In the end, she’ll come out of this smarter and tougher. Especially with the Last of the Marvel story coming up.
