Captain Marvel: 10 Biggest Changes From The Comics
6. The Reason For Carol's Amnesia
Over her long tenure on Marvel's roster of characters, Carol Danvers has lost her memory quite a few times.
Originally this was because her Ms. Marvel persona functioned like a split personality, with Carol having no recollection of her heroic actions, but the most notable instance of the hero losing her memories was during Danvers' early days as the Captain.
In the Kelly Sue DeConnick written series, the first solo-outing of this incarnation of the character, a Kree structure in Carol's brain caused the hero to have a brain haemorrhage (with every time she used her powers prior to this bringing her closer to it), leading to the Captain losing years of memories, a tale slightly different to the version depicted in the movie.
