Ms. Marvel is the name of a fictional character appearing in comic books published by Marvel Comics. Originally created by writer Roy Thomas and artist Gene Colan, the first incarnation of the character debuted in Marvel Super-Heroes #13 (1968) as the non-superpowered Carol Danvers, but first appeared as Ms. Marvel in Ms. Marvel #1 (1977). Ms. Marvel writer Gerry Conway played a significant role in the character's subsequent development, who created her as the modern woman's "quest for raised consciousness, for self-liberation, for identity."
Originally debuting as an aspiring pilot, Carol Danvers entered the Air Force upon graduating from high school to pursue her love of aircraft and her dreams of flying. After being caught in an extraterrestrial explosion, Danver's genetic structure was melded with the Kree species; because of this, Danvers was now a perfect hybrid of Kree and human genes. It is through this transformation, Ms. Marvel was born.
The character starred in her own series in the late 1970s before becoming associated with the Avengers and X-Men. In 2009 Ms. Marvel stars in two monthly titles: a second eponymous solo series penned by Brian Reed and Patrick Olliffe, and Mighty Avengers, by Brian Michael Bendis and Frank Cho. Ms. Marvel also makes frequent appearances in other titles. Also briefly known as Binary and Warbird, the character of Ms. Marvel has been featured in other Marvel-endorsed products such as arcade and video games; animated television series and merchandise such as trading cards.

Powers and abilities
Ms. Marvel initially possessed superhuman strength, endurance, stamina, flight, physical durability and a limited precognitive "seventh sense". As Binary, she could tap the energy of a "white hole", allowing manipulation of stellar energies, and therefore control over heat, the electromagnetic spectrum and gravity. Light speed travel and the ability to exist in the vacuum of space were also possible. Although the link to the white hole is eventually severed, Ms. Marvel retains her Binary powers on a smaller scale, enabling her to both absorb energy and project it in photonic form. The character, however, lacks a constant source of energy to maintain the abilities at their previous cosmic level.
Carol Danvers is also an exceptional espionage agent, hand-to-hand combatant, markswoman and a talented writer.
