G. Willow Wilson and Rachael Stott Ground Carol Danvers in a New Captain Marvel Ongoing

Marvel used its NYCC 2026 Bullpen Bulletins panel to announce a new Captain Marvel ongoing series, reuniting fan-favorite writer G. Willow Wilson with artist Rachael Stott for Carol Danvers's next chapter.

Picking up in the wake of Avengers: Armageddon, the series finds Carol "grounded like never before," stripped of some of the cosmic swagger that's defined recent runs as a long-building threat finally catches up to her. Editor-in-chief Stephen Wacker framed the relaunch as part of a broader push to bring Marvel's flagship characters back to street level.

Wilson is best known for her acclaimed run writing Kamala Khan's Ms. Marvel, so pairing her with Carol Danvers for a more grounded, consequence-driven take is a notable swing for one of Marvel's cornerstone heroes.

Captain Marvel #1 launches in May 2027.
