In "Best of the Best," Ms. Marvel takes on a whirlwind day of heroics, from effortlessly defeating Stilt-Man to rescuing three boys from danger, all while navigating public appearances and a surprise lunch with Jessica Drew. As she connects with Captain America mid-battle and answers a call that pulls her into an unexpected alien assault, the stakes rise fast—proving that being the best isn’t just about strength, but how you handle what comes next.

In "null," Carol Danvers faces a desperate alien threat as the Brood launch a surprise attack on Earth, not for conquest but as a final gambit to survive. With the relentless hunter Cru closing in, the Brood hope to lure him into using Cavorite Crystals—potentially turning the planet into a weapon that could end them both.

In "Traveler's Tales," Carol Danvers comes home to find a news crew and the enigmatic Sir Warren Traveler waiting for her—only to quickly realize his arrival is no accident. With her powers tested and a mysterious figure in custody, she turns to Doctor Strange to uncover what Traveler truly is and what he might be capable of.

In "Time and Time Again," Carol Danvers, now Ms. Marvel, confronts the enigmatic Sir Warren Traveler across fractured timelines and shifting realities. With the fate of multiple worlds hanging in the balance, she must join forces with Doctor Strange to outwit a foe who bends time itself.

In "Battle Lines," Carol Danvers—now aligned with Iron Man’s pro-registration stance—teams up with Wonder Man to track down the unlicensed hero Arana, while Arachne, the former Spider-Woman, is exposed as a double agent and forced to flee with her secret lover, The Shroud, as trust fractures across the superhero community.

In "Battle Lines (Part 2)," Jo confronts the consequences of her actions when she’s taken in for unregistered heroics, forcing a painful revelation to her father.

In "For the Best," Ms. Marvel and Wonder Man take rookie Arana on her first mission to Denver, where they confront the fugitive Arachne—Julia Carpenter—who refuses to surrender and fights to protect her daughter, Rachel. When Arachne is defeated and Rachel is taken, Arana is left grappling with the moral weight of their actions, questioning whether justice always means doing what's right.

In "Your Own Worst Enemy," Carol Danvers confronts a terrifying doppelgänger from another dimension—Warbird, a version of herself driven by rage and destruction. As the two clash across realities, Carol must face not only the violent echo of her own power but the cost of her choices, while Rogue, wounded and shaken, is asked to leave the team. The story lingers on the weight of identity and the hard choice between running away and staying to fight for what matters.

In "Doomsday," Carol Danvers enjoys a rare, low-key evening out with restaurant owner William Wagner—no questions about her superhero life, just easy conversation and good food. But their moment is cut short when Arana delivers urgent word: the Doomsday Man has awakened, and the threat is real once more.

In "Something Dark Is Coming," Carol Danvers faces a dual threat as Doomsday Man unleashes the Targoth zombies, infecting her in the fray—only for an unknown force within her to begin healing the wound.

As Arana recovers in the hospital, her father cuts off any further contact between her and Carol.

In "The Deal Part 1," Carol Danvers—now Ms. Marvel—finds herself pulled into a high-stakes investigation after an AIM DNA bomb detonates, forcing a tense reunion with Iron Man.

As she settles into her new command aboard a mini-Helicarrier, her focus shifts when Arachne appears at Arana’s workplace, demanding answers about Carol’s missing daughter.

In "The Deal Part 2," Carol Danvers and Lightning Storm team up to help Arachne reunite with her daughter Julia, setting in motion a high-stakes arrangement that could change their lives.

When Modok takes direct control of Wonder Man’s mind, the mission turns personal—and the threat escalates fast.

Part 2," Carol Danvers faces a tangled web of secrets and sabotage as Sarah uncovers dangerous truths about William Wagner, threatening to unravel his relationship with Carol. With Wonder Man under Modok’s control and a battle that ends not in violence but in a shocking kiss, Ms. Marvel and her Lightning Storm agents push the fight to AIM—only to see the Scientist Supreme captured while Modok, Sean Madigan, and the DNA bomb slip away. As Carol questions Monica, she’s forced to confront the chilling possibility of betrayal within her own team—and the unsettling truth that Sean may be driven by vengeance, not just power.
