10 Worst Things Captain Marvel Has Ever Done
Some people came out of Civil War II looking better than others...
Despite going off the handle in her comics from time to time, Captain Marvel hasn't done that many bad things. She's stubborn, sure, and more often than not blunt and a little rude, but that doesn't make her a bad person.
However, when Captain Marvel does do something wrong, it's usually the most intensely awful you can get without just straight-up becoming a supervillain. While the good Captain's strong-willed nature does her well against her foes, it also means that when she gets an idea in her head few people can stop her, which easily leads to hasty and morally questionable plans being carried out.
Carol Danvers' path of misdeeds is paved with good intentions, and this is exactly what makes her such an engaging character - and yet also what has made her so hated amongst parts of the comic community.
While heroic motivations don't justify murder, manipulation and the destruction of the world, they at least show us that even when she's doing wrong, Captain Marvel means well - it's just that sometimes, meaning well gets a ton of people arrested, turns your team against you... and has you accidentally kill the Hulk.
10. Manipulating The Avengers - Ultimate Spider-Man #150
Not everything Carol Danvers does wrong is absolutely awful. Take, for example, her efforts in the Ultimates series, where she manages to convince the Avengers to train a young vigilante Spider-Man by purposefully setting Iron Man, Thor, and Captain America against one another.
By all means, getting Peter some training isn't a bad move - but manipulating the Avengers against one another in order to do so feels super sketchy. Worse yet, Danvers totally fails to remind the three that Peter's superhero identity is secret, meaning that Iron Man just rocks up onto Parker's driveway looking for him, totally forgetting that this sort of thing naturally draws attention from any and every nearby civilian.
While it's nowhere near as bad as many of the other things Captain Marvel has ever done, this is also undeniably not one of her finer moments.
