Captain Marvel, Vol. 2: Down by Kelly Sue DeConnick
5.0
Why I am so behind on comics: this book came out in June. I ordered it for my library in June. It finally got processed and sent to me... yesterday. In November.
But it was worth the wait. I love everything about this!! Carol, obv, but also Monica and Jess and Wendy and Kit and CHEWIE <3 <3 <3 I love that it's just cool, smart, strong women kicking ass (and kicking shark and kicking dinosaur) and having sort of relatable human problems (such as taking your cat to the vet, only to be attacked by dinosaurs... and then telling a passerby that your cat is Spider-Man undercover and will they please be an honorary Avenger and take him to the vet)? PERF.
Reading this was so delightful. It made me feel like all of my interests were being pandered to. Like, all of them. And then I thought: holy shit, is this what it feels like to be a straight white bro comics fan ALL THE TIME?? ugh now I want to punch a SHARK.
