However, it's also possible they're a totally new hero, as appears to be the case for the team's version of Star-Lord (though we're speculating he may be the mainstream Peter Quill's son.) From the original Mar-Vell to Monica Rambeau, Genis-Vell, and Noh-Varr, a lot of heroes have used the Captain Marvel codename over Marvel history, so it wouldn't be a huge step to introduce yet another.

A young version of Phyla-Vell was introduced to the MCU in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.

Marvel Fans Have Been Waiting for a Queer Captain Marvel

But Many Will Be Disappointed This Isn't Carol Danvers

Many fans will be excited to see the debut of a queer Captain Marvel, especially given speculation that Brie Larson's character is deliberately queer-coded in the MCU.

Indeed, Larson and Valkyrie actor Tessa Thompson have endorsed fans 'shipping' their movie characters in the past. His typical trip to the comic store always follows the same sequence: promising to budget and limit how many issues he will buy, seeing them on the shelf and buying them all anyway. But what Emma finds, chills Steve Rogers to the bone…

Sean was a Weekend Comic News Editor for CBR, one taught by incredible mentors like Stephen Gerding, Jon Arvedon and more. Future releases will feature different versions of the character, each with a unique background.

“We’re hoping to explore what the idea of Captain America means at this precise moment — not just on the grand stage of the world — but to everyday and often overlooked communities throughout the United States,” said series writer Christopher Cantwell.

As of writing, it is unknown if Fischer or any of the other Captains America introduced in United States of Captain America will be involved in Cold War, which is slated to release in the Spring of 2023.

Why Captain America Says THAT to Summon Emma Frost

In the meantime, Sentinel of Liberty has focused on Steve dealing with the Outer Circle, a small group of powerful individuals that has controlled the flow of history as a part of a century-long game.

For context, the word used to summon Emma is a callback to Marauders #21 (2021), a "Hellfire Gala" tie-in where the mutant telepath reads Steve's mind and learns that she reminds him of his mother.

Along with Lanzing, Kelly and Carnero, Captain America: Sentinel of Liberty #8 is colored by Nolan Woodard and lettered by VC's Joe Caramagna.

Writer: Brian Michael
Publisher(s): Marvel
Main Characters: Spider-Man, The Hulk, Thor, Daredevil

Created in 2000, the Ultimate Marvel imprint redesigned the entire Marvel Comics universe with a new set of origin stories and relationships.

In a series that has been pretty explicit in its political and social commentary, it's notable that the Ultimates are shaping up to be one of Marvel's most diverse teams, with the far more advanced Guardians echoing the same choices while depicting a utopian 'happy ending' for the Marvel Universe as fans know it.

“Aaron is inspired by heroes of the queer community: activists, leaders and everyday folks pushing for a better life,” said writer Joshua Trujillo.

This is especially noteworthy given Marvel's much-criticized handling of queer themes in its mainstream Guardians of the Galaxy comics...
