First Official Look at Brie Larsen as Captain Marvel! (licensed notebooks from Insight Editions)

Yes, I am delaying the continuation of the history of the Captain Marvel here for ONE MORE POST because I wanted to get this news in before it got too stale!

Last week the FIRST OFFICIAL IMAGE of Brie Larsen as Carol Danvers/Captain Marvel was released, and it is in the form of a notebook. THAT'S RIGHT, A NOTEBOOK.



Apparently, Insight Editions has licensed a couple of images and put them on the covers of two notebooks that will be available in April of 2019.

Now, the click-bait Interwebs have, of course clogged up the newsstream, but I don't have time for one of my infamous "clickbait roundups" here. So I just selected the post that seemed to have the most info, the most pictures, and the most vivacious "voice." Feel free to visit it for all sorts of cool words and pictures!

And here is the Tweet that many folks are sharing about it: https://twitter.com/CaptMarvelNews/status/1033887549041909760

I have always felt that notebooks were a sort of quickie, cheapie job on the licensing. You have 84 (or whatever) lined pages and the only thing about it that is about the licensed property is the picture on the cover! The only thing cheaper than that is a folder! But look! At least the notebook has paper!

However, it can be used to write things about the property (in this case, Marvel Comics' current Captain Marvel). You can use it to log the clickbait articles that post the same pictures over and over again from the same tweet or review the fan-made trailers nor critique the writers and commenters on their lack of actual knowledge of the histories of these character. So no doubt every member of the Carol Corps will want at least one of each!

Of course we all do this on the Interwebs ourselves (like I am doing now) but by keeping it on paper, it is quite possible that it will last longer than all this electronic information that is going to go POOF! when the EMP hits or the servers shut down when the last drop of fossil fuel is consumed and the final solar panel shatters.

This image does reveal, at least that, yes, the costume will be blue and red, not (or at least not always) black and green, as the set photos have shown us. It also shows us that there will be some sort of energy/power in her hands, and that we cannot yet confirm whether she will ever have the short hair that she has recently had in the comics.

So there it is folks! Enjoy! I am sure there will be more on the way!

NEXT: Finally we find out about Mar-Vell, the second alien Captain Marvel!
