In addition to her personal sign, the heroine Captain Marvel has her own image, which is reflected in the logo of the series and in the symbol she wears. The character’s image was studied by the studio with high attention to detail, which contributed to its visual appeal and memorability among all signs of the Marvel universe.
The symbol for the new hero is a gold star, which is said to represent the United States Air Force where she began her story in the 1960s. It is also believed that the shield she holds in battle is the same one she received from Steve Rogers when she became Captain America.
As in the comics, her powers are enhanced strength and durability, as well as the ability to shoot photonic energy blasts from her hands. She also has the ability to heal herself by absorbing energy from her surroundings.
Her costume is a blue-and-red sleeveless dress with a cape and a hood. She also has a necklace that consists of the letter M written in Arabic, which is a nod to her Muslim identity.
In the comics, she is first introduced as a US Air Force officer who gets her superhuman powers by combining her DNA with that of her Kree co-officer Mar-Vell. The Kree are a race of blue-faced aliens, technologically and scientifically much more advanced than humans.
After a major explosion, Carol Danvers’ DNA fuses with Mar-Vell’s, resulting in her becoming Captain Marvel. She has a lot of superhuman powers, some of which could be vital to the fate of the Avengers.
