About the author

KELLY THOMPSON has a degree in Sequential Art from The Savannah College of Art & Design. Her love of comics and superheroes have compelled her since she first discovered them as a teenager. Currently living in Portland, Oregon with her boyfriend and the two brilliant cats that run their lives, you can find Kelly all over the Internet where she is generally well liked, except where she's detested.

Kelly has published two novels - THE GIRL WHO WOULD BE KING (2012) and STORYKILLER (2014) and the graphic novel HEART IN A BOX from Dark Horse Comics (2015). She's currently writing ROGUE & GAMBIT, HAWKEYE, and PHASMA for Marvel Comics and GHOSTBUSTERS for IDW. Other major credits include: A-Force, Captain Marvel & The Carol Corps, Jem and The Holograms, Misfits, Power Rangers Pink, and the creator-owned mini-series Mega Princess.

Kelly's ambitions are eclipsed only by her desire to exist entirely in pajamas. Fortunately pajamas and writers go hand in hand (most of the time). Please buy all her stuff so that she can buy (and wear) more pajamas.

I really love this series. In this issue, I get more Carol and Rhodey, more Carol and Jess, and more Carol and Tony Stark. I love all these combinations! The plot line is becoming more and more interesting, and I'm really curious about how this all plays out, especially given the ending, which I wasn't expecting at all.
I love that this series has such depth. Every issue feels filled with witty dialogue, character development, and story. Compared to other series I've been reading or have read, this one is definitely the best for its continual quality and consistency. Oh, and once again, I love Carol's personality and humor and the fact that she's a strong (albeit flawed) woman who speaks her mind, is caring and intelligent, and is also well-respected by the men and the women in her life.
Highly recommended!

Can't trust anybody

Looks like whomever Minerva was working with betrayed her. Carol is just as stubborn as ever. More Jessica Drew please.
