The Story Behind the Rise and Fall and Rise of Captain Marvel

Marvel’s Declassified is a nonfiction narrative podcast that focuses on the rich, dynamic, and evolving history of Marvel Comics as told through a contemporary lens! 

In 1977, Ms. Marvel burst onto the scene and Carol Danvers went from side character to Super Hero. Taking on the honorific “Ms.,” she embodied the identity of the women’s movement in the United States. In this episode, your hosts Lorraine Cink and Evan Narcisse explore how Carol Danvers’ evolution has reflected wider societal trends—from clothing design to larger questions of agency and power. Along the way, they chat with some of the writers who shaped Ms. Marvel’s journey, from Carol Danvers to Kamala Khan.

Joined by guests Kelly Sue DeConnick, Gerry Conway, Trina Robbins, and Sana Amanat, Lorraine and Evan uncover it all on the latest Marvel’s Declassified!
