... Carol Danvers lays the smack down on the Avengers for their handling of the events of Avengers #200, so very recently posted here.

Posting 6 pages of a 38-page annual, not my scans and nothing done to them but resizing, by very popular demand.

We join our heroes by the pool at Xavier's mansion, some time after Rogue's brain-sucking of Carol; Xavier has helped her recover a rough version of her memories. Jessica Drew's there because as Spider-Woman she saved Carol's life when Rogue threw her empty shell off the Golden Gate Bridge.













Remember, Carol at this point has reconstructed her life history, but it's ghostly to her, no real emotions attached. Can you imagine how this'd've played if she were fully herself?

I will though offer a word of criticism. As much as I like Michael Golden, I have to say, at least here, ever since this first came out I thought, looking at that first page you've got here: there's something weird about the way he draws the female form. Storm's head appears to be too tiny, that could be part of the weirdness, and Jessica's breasts...um, okay, whatever.

Carol, too, looks more butch than I'd ever imagined her, but that's more a matter of taste than anatomy.

Which strikes me as strange. I grew up on MICRONAUTS, and know damn well from Mari that he can draw women.

It's also mind-bogglingly inappropriate for Carol to have this sort of conversation with the Avengers while she's wearing a bathing suit with some sort of weird fake-fur robe that doesn't even cover her crotch. You'd think that she would at least go for a more concealing cover-up. And those huge anime eyes are sort of weird, too.
