Bullet Review:
Who are all these people on the cover? Galactus...Rocket...??? Rule of “Looks Cool”?
Whatever, back to the story. Captain Marvel gets her ship back and returns Tic to her people on Torfa, only to realize the situation is more complex than she first believed (duh...).
I recall adoring Captain Marvel when Deconnick first started writing her; I’m by no means saying this is awful, but it’s certainly not remarkable or extraordinary by any means. Captain Marvel is a pretty blank person right now; we are just plugging along to get the plot rolling. It’s also somewhat strange to read so much sci-fi in a superhero book, but that’s probably a “me thing”.

So finally we get more into the story after two issues. There is this planet that houses refugees from their destroyed home planet. But it seems that it is poisonous and they have to leave again in search of another. Cpt.Marvel is here to help but some disagree that leaving is the best solution...

CAP: rocket hold your fire!
ROCKET: why would I do that?
CAP: because she's a kid and she's confused. Because that's my ship and it's carrying MY CAT!
-----------
CAP: I missed you too, Harrison. Now, disable manual controls, seal the cockpit and prepare the airlock, please...MAMA's home!
I love her.
