Official Description:
IT’S A WILD, WILD WAR!
Nada’s corrupting influence spreads! The FERAL FIVE and NITRO stand ready to invade Earth and blast it back to the Stone Age – they just have to get rid of its peskiest hero first. Carol Danvers is used to taking any hit that comes her way. She’s always stood right back up. Sure, she could CRUSH the Feral Five, but they’re just kids. Kids with the right to have powers too. It’s an epic battle of good vs. evil as the Captain races to save her home planet from a power she can barely fight at all!

Creative Team:

Artist – Paolo Villanelli

The final installment of the five-part series has arrived! Nada has everything she needs to invade Earth and set her plans of our downfall in motion. Meanwhile, Captain Marvel is taking a beating from Nitro and he has her on the ropes, which is new for Earth’s Mightiest Hero. One thing is for sure, Carol is not going down without a fight. She just needs to hold on little longer for backup to arrive. Spider-Woman and Carol’s hometown comrades are racing their way through space to help her, but will they make it on time? 

The Feral Five have bought into Nada’s anti-tech propaganda hook line and sinker but does that mean that they are fully committed to serving her or are they more feral than she thought? Nada is taking down the tech world from the top down; destroying satellites and production lines is just the start. Will Captain Marvel and the crew douse Nitro in time to save Earth from the chaos that is coming?

Nocenti and team have delivered us a wild ride. They definitely created a powerhouse duo in Nada and Nitro, giving us a villain that can take down Captain Marvel and another who can cripple mankind without needing to launch a Thanos style war. The introduction of the Feral Five has been intriguing to watch these new characters develop and come into their powers. They are on a delicate balancing act that can tip the scales into being heroes or villains. While this is the end of this chapter, I am expecting to see new story arcs form around these new characters. Thank you, Ann & Paolo for bringing to life some fresh faces and taking us on this exhilarating adventure with Earth’s Mightiest Hero. If you want more Captain Marvel, check out her glam up and new storyline from Alyssa Wong.
