Forever mad they don’t interact more ever. Stupid. Let Wendell have this mentor I swear to god

[thessstrangeskeleton]

Casual Marv and Ely… adorable…

[thessstrangeskeleton]

like obviously to me Marv probably had silver hair initially because the intention was that he was older, but like… he just gets younger… and then turns blonde… then later the only hint at his actual age is a vague statement like “You’re around 33 aren’t you?” 33?? This man is 45!! By god!!

To YOU its a ufo. I know what it is

[thessstrangeskeleton]

big fan of the new pfp btw

well thanks, it’s Captain Marvel aka Mar-Vell from Marvel comics

[thessstrangeskeleton]

Leslie gets me

[thessstrangeskeleton]

Me morphing into Elysius so I can stare at Marv’s huge hairy chest and maybe even pop a feel

[thessstrangeskeleton]

wandering in here to ask if you’ve read the fic series “Clan Mar-Vellous” (would link it but links not allowed) because if not I SUPER recommend it it’s pretty long so I haven’t been able to talk abt it with anyone else but it’s such a good fic + inspired a lot of my hcs about Kree biology

I haven’t… I guess it depends on what’s it’s about because I’m fairly picky about fics

[sparkledragon04]

essentially it’s bringing Marv, Genis, and Phyla back to life through various methods and then dealing with the fallout of that. There’s a lot of focus on interpersonal relationships and such (Marv ends up paired up with Carol which isn’t my ship of choice but it’s done well I think) and tbh sometimes there’s SO much focus on peripheral characters that you’re like ok can I see Marv again but! It’s definitely a fun time and if you don’t want to commit to the whole thing you could just read the first one and the Christmas special or something

[thessstrangeskeleton]

hmmm… honestly Carol and Marv might deter me mostly because I cannot with that ship, but otherwise it seems interesting.., I might look it over

[sparkledragon04]

Shaking hands with you abt Marv and Carol genuinely what do people see in them as a pairing… I think it’s one of those things that comes from only having later comics bc those like to paint Carol as in love to give her a reason for taking on the CM title

[thessstrangeskeleton]

yeah it’s weird because I’m aware Carol crushed on Marv for a little while but then they agree to just stay good friends. Then later Marv’s clone (can’t remember his name) is like. Obsessed with Carol for some reason? He never loved her that intensely, but I just justify it as the cloned clinging to what little he can to make himself self secure as Mar-Vell. Either way it feels like so little actually backs them up as a pair, but modern comics act like they were madly in love. Completely ignoring Eli but whatever… you’re telling me there is little to no instances of Marv “revivals” think about Eli first thing?

[sparkledragon04]

YEAH exactlyyy. The closest we get is Khn’nr mentioning her in like ONE line and then copping out by going “oh what if she’s moved on I don’t wanna see her” BRUH. It’s like. The whole mischaracterization of Marv in modern comics as far as I can tell seem to stem from the fact that later writers took cues from how he should act/his relationships from how people talked about him in universe after he died??? Or something?? Idkkk but there’s have been some really egregious ones. Dpmo he wouldn’t say that

[thessstrangeskeleton]

it does seem like writers take VERY specific pieces of who Marv is and exaggerate them to an extreme. Like in that undead avengers run where he acted way too much like a stereotypical soldier, or in the generations run where he’s so flat and overly formal. I like those comics, but I feel Marv’s character is never actually represented properly… it’s always just a writer running with the one thing the know about Marv … very strange… because Marv is such a special guy with layers… like an onion…
