ANOTHER OF BARRY PEARL'S MARVELLOUS MINI-POSTS...



Please do not interpret this post as taking away the legal or moral right of a creator.  I just want to point out an interesting 'conundrum'.

I always wanted a 'Developed by' credit next to 'Written by' and 'Drawn by'.  For example, Lee and Kirby created the Hulk and it failed in six issues.  Steve Ditko takes over when the strip is revived in Tales To Astonish and introduces the anger management problem that made the character unique and iconic.  He also added new characters that were important to the strip.  We would never, ever add his name to the 'creators' and I am not suggesting that.  I thought of this with the Captain Marvel movie.

Lee and Colan created the Walter Lawson-Captain Marvel in Marvel Super Heroes #12.

Roy Thomas introduced Carol Danvers in issue #13.

Roy and Gil Kane zap Danvers with powers (which we don’t see her get) in Captain Marvel #18.

Danvers gets her uniform and powers in Ms. Marvel #1, by Gerry & Carla Conway and John Buscema.  The costume was designed by John Romita.

And she becomes Captain Marvel in 2015 written by Kelly Sue DeConnick with art by Dexter Soy

The credits at the end of the movie may be as long as the movie itself!!!
