Writer Kelly Thompson will conclude her run on Carol Danvers in Captain Marvel #50, which will be a double-sized issue featuring artwork by Javier Pina and David Lopez. Thompson's tenure as one of the longest-running writers on the character will come to an end this June. Her 50-issue run has included story arcs such as "Re-Entry" and "The Last Avenger," as well as tie-ins to major Marvel events like "War of the Realms" and "Empyre".
Carmen Carnero's cover art for Captain Marvel #50, included below, features standout moments from throughout Thompson's run on the title.
Kelly Thompson has written for a number of Marvel Comics titles in addition to CAPTAIN MARVEL. She has written the ongoing series West Coast Avengers, as well as several limited series, including Mr. and Mrs. X, Hawkeye: Kate Bishop, and Jessica Jones: Blind Spot.
"When Marvel asked me to write Carol's new Captain Marvel series back in 2018, in the lead up to her first film, I was delighted and also terrified," Thompson shared. "But I'm glad I didn't let the terror win, because it has truly been a fantastic experience."
"While it hasn't always been easy, I'm so proud of the stories we've told with Carol, but none of it would have been possible without the fans. Captain Marvel fans are some of the best comic fans -- and humans -- I've ever experienced, truly. So thank you for this run. We made it, but you all made it so loved, and so long. Thank you."
Don't miss this capstone to a record-breaking run as Thompson puts her final fingerprints on Earth’s Mightiest Hero when Captain Marvel #50 arrives in comic book stores on June 7th.
