I sense a Hulk 180/181 storm is brewing...

Not really, Marvel officially lists the publication date of Avenging Spider-man #9 as a week before Captain Marvel #1, and in Avenging Spider-Man #9 she is CLEARLY identified as Captain Marvel:

And yet bizarrely it says "Previously... Carol Danvers got an awesome new costume and is now Captain Marvel!"

I'll keep my money on Captain Marvel #1.

Regardless which one wins out, I prefer the CM1 issue, it's a far better read.

And yet bizarrely it says.

 

"PREVIOUSLY...

CAROL DANVERS GOT AN AWESOME NEW COSTUME AND IS NOW CAPTAIN MARVEL!"

 

I'll keep my money on Captain Marvel #1

And yet if you read the text again in the red area it says "CAROL DANVERS GOT AN AWESOME NEW COSTUME AND IS NOW CAPTAIN MARVEL! You can find out more about that in Captain Marvel #1, which will be on sale next week!"

You left out that very key sentence. In fact read ALL the text in the red area, I think this is a settled discussion now.

Do you have a stash of AS#9 by any chance?

Do you have a stash of AS#9 by any chance?

 

Why is that always the response around here when one can't back up their points otherwise?

Because it's funny?

Regardless, I'll probably pick up both books anyway; after all I don't want to miss out on "holding the future of comic books right in your very hands."

Here's the whole text in the red area on the inside of Avenging #9, I typed it out since it is kind of small in places and not everybody may be able to easily read it:

Previously…

Some time ago, Peter Parker’s Aunt May moved to Boston. Also…

CAROL DANVERS GOT AN AWESOME NEW

COSTUME AND IS NOW CAPTAIN MARVEL!

(You can find out more about that in Captain Marvel #1, which will be on sale next week!

But this story takes place AFTER Captain Marvel #1, so “previously” still applies in a story sense and

really what this means is that you are holding the FUTURE OF COMICS right in your very hands!)

Perhaps a better comparison is with Gambit (Uncanny X-Men #266 and Uncanny X-Men Annual #14).

Except Gambit wasn't on the cover of the X-Men Annual #14, that probably was a big influence with what book became the market favorite.

Besides, from the text we now see inside Avenging #9, it's without a doubt Marvel acknowledges Captain Marvel #1 won't come out until a week after Avenging #9 and even makes note of it.

Oh yea, it's settled. First time in these boards?

Anyway, that's reads like an origin story to me. That doesn't mean it's her first appearance.

He wasn't?

OK, I'll admit it. I've seen this cover a million times, but never read the book.

Who is that on the cover that kind of looks like Gambit, but maybe a cyborg version?

Oh, and this Marvel Wiki (if that counts for anything) still lists this as Gambit's first appearance.

I was about to post the same thing, if Gambit is on the cover of X-Men Annual #14, I've never seen him. Where is he located on there?

If it came out a week before Captain Marvel #1, and Carol Danvers goes by Captain Marvel in the story, that means it appeared first correct? Appeared first in shops for people to read and buy. Thus, by the truest sense of the word, the first appearance of Carol Danvers as Captain Marvel. I've already made it clear, as does the text in the issue that chronologically it takes place after CM #1, if that's the point you're trying to make.

I was about to post the same thing, if Gambit is on the cover of X-Men Annual #14, I've never seen him. Where is he located on there?

Always thought that was him. Me and one blind guy agree.

 

Stop talking about Moderns Heating Up and get back to the bickering.

So is this debate going on because we have a bunch of Ms Captain Marvel fans?

So is this debate going on because we have a bunch of people holding large stashes of Ms Captain Marvel?

Fixed that for ya..... I kid, I kid.

Except if that's true then how much time do you spend counting pennies and ignoring real money?
