    Ms. DeConnick os a great writer.. Assemble and Captain Marvel have regularly been my favorite reads on the weeks they come out.

    I'd probably be buying Assemble if it wasn't a $4 book.

    While the new costume is good I'm not convinced it doesn't need a few more tweaks. The color scheme of black/red isn't may favorite and I'd prefer it as blue and I still can't figure out what's going on with the mask/no mask. I'm glad to see Carol in the role but it's still kind of bland overall.

    For me, it's one of the handful of expensive books that is actually good value for money. I definitely recommend it.

    trust me, it's worth it.. and the fun, character-oriented tenner of Assemble really nicely balances the more serious, plot-oriented feel of Hickman's ajectiveless Avengers book.

    It is blue

    It's not clear if they know what's going on with it

    Carol cannot breath in space. She's not Binary any longer.

    You'll notice that the mask comes up when shes in orbit or under water.

    It's rather plain that they know exactly what's going on....

    KSD is one of my favourite writers, thanks to her I'm still on this forum, first-ever comic series I pulled and to this day I still love CM. Hope she never leaves it.

    1. She has worn the helmet in normal atmospheric conditions
    2. Reread the arc with Monica, she's not wearing the helmet underwater, but instead using proper scuba gear supplied by Monica
    3. Her powers are exactly the same as her pre-Captain days when she only had the domino mask. Maybe she can't breath in space, but she definitely survive without breathing for at least a while

    If this is some new application of her powers, I would like to know what it is because there is no consistency with it. And on top of that it's downright ugly
