ORIGINAL POST: AUGUST 31, 2015 – UPDATE: This is an old episode. It’s the second one I ever recorded. Monica Rambeau is an amazing character with a lot of potential to make a big impact for the MCU. This episode doesn’t go too in debt into all her potential, which is why I vaulted it. Enjoy it for what it is and revel in the fact that a new one is inbound.

Say hello Monica Rambeau. The first black female leader of the Avengers. This episode tackles (not literally, she’s made of energy) Auntie Monica, a.k.a Captain Marvel a.k.a Spectrum! Check out the io9’s article on her. It was so eye opening, I thought it prudent to do an episode on her.

Monica Rambeau’s Extensive Alias List

Captain Marvel
Photon
Pulsar
Daystar
Sceptre
Lady of Light
Monica Marvel
Auntie Monica
Sun Goddess
Spectrum

She swaps names like Cersei kills Starks. Aggressively. Monica may very well have the most aliases in Marvel.
