Helen Cobb Captain Marvels arch enemy?

It came to my attention Carol danvers doesn't really have a archenemy and I was thinking, maybe it could be Helen cobb!
Readers of the new captain marvel series know who i'm on about. Not in a evil way, like the doom and reed relationship, or magneto/proffesor X relationship.

She's battled her weight issues more than anything else

For me, Carol's Arch-Nemesisis are, currently:

1. Mystique
2. Rogue
3. The Brood
4. Cars
5. Kree Jerks

She needs some new ones, certainly. Especially since the other 3 have strong ties to the X-Men.

She needs a dark reflection of her very core. Other Military folks gone rogue with powers would be best (Helen could fit that role well).

Don't know so much about Carol except that Mystique and Rogue had a big part as enemies and that the Brood she had also fought. But what about Moonstone? One could argue she became a dark reflection during that whole Dark Avengers stuff...

Moonstone could potentially work, but she's always in her own book to be honest. Someone's archenemy needs to be exclusively featured in that person's title so the writer can do whatever they want with that person.

I agree that Carol definitely needs someone to step up and fill the arch-enemy void.

Perhaps in the new issues someone could appear.

Hmm, what about Dr Minerva? She started off as a Captain Marvel character so maybe Carol could inherit her as a nemesis. There is the tie to the Captain Marvel mythos and she is a Kree scientist as well so...

Didn't she fight outer space menaces like "Deathbird" and so forth in her original Claremont series? And who did the original Captain Marvel fight? Thanos? Skrulls? Why isn't she fighting more cosmic menaces like that instead of spending her time tending light aircraft and salvaging sunken scrap metal or whatever the heck she's doing with Photon?

I haven't found Helen Cobb even remotely interesting. Last thing I want is for her to become a recurring nemesis.

,
Dr. Minerva works.

Superia also works.

Both characters are powerful enough to stand up to Carol hand to hand, but are also plotters and science types, so they
can challenge her in other ways.

There is also Doomsday Man from her first series.

I think this could work really well.

**Juggernaut Punch** · 12-01-2012, 01:13 PM

Rogue or Moonstone would be best.

Unfortunately, both of them are fighting on the side of good (Moonstone with a gun to her head, but still)

This idea sounds perfect. Minstique, Rogue, Dr Minerva and Moonstone... hmmmm... Carol needs a male enemy too. The Sorceror Supreme from a different reality? What was his name?
