澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Marvels is here - and with it comes a pair of reality-shattering cameos. Spoilers ahead.
In the last act of the film, a hole has been torn in reality by the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Quantum-Bands and only Monica Rambeau can save the day. She selflessly flies into the rift and seals it, but is left trapped 𓆉on the other side and in another dimension, perhaps forever.
That's not the last we see of her in the movie, however. In The 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Marvels post-credits scene she wakes up on a hospital 🔯bed and finds herself face-to-face with a woman who appears to be her mother, M♛aria Rambeau, as played by Lashana Lynch.
In ✨Monica's reality, her mother is dead. In this alternative universe, however, she's ෴very much alive - and wearing an outfit that will be familiar to comics fans. This is Binary, a cosmic character with the powers of a star.
Binary has a rich history in the Marvel comics, so join us now as we look back at the origins and powers of this galactic hero, and how she fits into the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Captain Marvel story so far.
Carol Danvers IS Binary
Before there was Binary there was 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Carol Danvers, though she was not yet going by the Captain Marvel name. Carol has had her powers stolen by the mutant Rogue (still a baddy at this point) and given up her Ms. Marvel alias. She's kidnapped by the alien Brood who start experimenting on her. Their genetic tinkering, however, has an unexpected side effect - it unlocks 𝐆new powers within Carol and transforms her into a burning golden figure, "like a butterfly emerging from its chrysalis."
This first version of Binary can generate heat, light, radiation, gravity and she has incredible perceptive skills. What she doesn't have is patience. When she learns that Storm is in danger she blasts out of the X-Men's spacecraft to go and reꦕscue her friend… accidentally tearing a hole in t🔯he side of the ship in the process and blasting the X-Men out into space! (Don't worry, they're fine.)
The Carol Danvers version of Binary🌟 is around for a good while, though she never formally joins the X-Men.
She gets to fight Rogue again in Uncanny X-Men #171, this time punching the now repentant mutant into the stratosphere. This does not go down well with 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Professor X, so Carol leaves the mutants behind and goes off to join the Starjammers - a band of space pirates led by Cyclops' dad, Corsair.
It's while she's with the Starjammers that she first meets 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Monica Rambeau, the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:second Captain Marvel. Yes, in the comics Carol Danvers is actually the seventh hero to take that title, with Monica having predated her by man♒y years.
Carol's time as Binary comes to an end in Quasar #34. A Shi'ar Nega-Bomb threatens꧂ life on Earth. Carol helps stop it, but loses her powers in the process.
Birth of the Binary clone
The version of Binary that will be more familiar to modern readers emerged as recently as 2021, in Captain Marvel #34 by writer 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kelly Thompson (who is currently writing DC's brilliant new 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Birds of Prey) and artist Sergio Dávila.
The alien Vox Supreme has captured Danvers (now firmly going under the Captain Marvel name) and imprisoned her in a power-resistant cage before blasting her into space. To escape, Carol focuses her powers and creates an energy form based on Binary. This﷽ helps break her out of the prison before being reabsorbed by Danvers.
She tries the same trick again 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:a few issues later, when Vox Supreme tries to trap Cap in a suit that would allow hi𓂃m to control her. Danvers creates her Binary form again, but this time it doesn't simply vanish. Instead, it becomes an entirely separate entity who holds some of Carol's memories and eventually goes on to become a hero in her own right.
Alas, t🍸his Binary shines brightly but only briefly. In Captain Marvel #48 the Binary clone is killed while fighting the Brood Empress.
Binary in the MCU
Although we only share a couple of minutes with Maria Rambeau/Binary ♑at the end of The Marvels it's clear that this is going to be a quite different take on the character.
We don't yet know her power🐠s, or even if she's going by the name Binary at all - though the the tw♑in stars on her suit certainly suggest as much.
Where will we see her next? Well, it's not out of the question that she might appear in next summer's Deadpool 3 which we already know will feature several mutants, not least Ryan Reynolds' title character! He will be joined by Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, Stefan Kapičić as Colossus, Brianna Hildebrand as Negasonic Teenage Warhead, and Shioli Kutsuna as Yukio. Could Lashana Lynch be back for that?
Alternatively, she could be a part of the Xཧ-Men film that is currently in development. That has yet to be publicly assigned a release date and it currently looks like it won't drop until 2026 at the♓ earliest.
Still, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Marvel Studios are full of surprises, and it's equally possible that Maria/Binary might show up in a movie or Disney Plus TV show well before then. Whatevꦐer the case we can't wait to see her in action andꦐ shining like a star.
The Marvels is in cinemas now.
