>>97590277>Why they are pushing her hard in the first place?Literally all of Marvel's noteworthy female characters were Fox film characters, i.e. Invisible Woman, Storm, Rogue & Jean Grey. While Wasp theoretically should be the biggest female character, she's far too entwined with Antman and Black Widow, while a household name due to the Avengers film, doesn't really have much to work with, definitely not enough for her own film series.
Carol, for all her blandness, has superpowers that put her in Thor's league, even though she started out as basically being a Supergirl she really isn't all that related to her Superman as far as her mythos goes, has enough there for an origin movie, a longstanding history with The Avengers, and, frankly above all else, literally has Marvel in her name.
If Marvel is going to bite the bullet on a female lead, it pretty much had to be Carol. I fully expect her to basically be Hal Jordan in the movies.
