An exciting glimpse at the early days of Carol Danvers! That's obviously not the point of these comics, our here here is Mar-vell, the Kree man sent to spy on earth who keeps putting the wellbeing of earthlings above his mission parameters. He's very interesting and I've enjoyed getting to know him and seeing how his motivations and sympathies change.
But I also love Carol, and it's cool to see her start in the 60s, where she is already a confident woman in a "masculine" role (head of security) who takes her job very seriously. (and if she gets to kiss an alien superhero every so often that's great for her too). She does face a lot of work-place sexism though, which is frustrating, but also makes me wonder what the writers were intending with that.
Anyway, a great book if you like looking at the origins of these marvel characters.
