Captain Marvel is an extremely good title, please don't think this is some sort of dig against that. IN MY OPINION (important to note) All stories have an external message or idea they latch onto, and to maintain a balance, they need to make sure the actual story is more important than the external agenda. Personally, I feel that for Captain Marvel has it's feminist agenda and strong female charcaters blaring way above her actual personal story if that makes sense. A perfect example of a story that makes it's own narrative over it's external agenda is kamala Kahn, which if you have read it will hopefully make sense.

Ms.Marvel, to me, was a once sexulised mainstream hero pushed to the sideline by 70s/80s sexism in the media. Nowadays, she has had a total revamp which is amazing, but her change from sideline hero to big hitter in the marvel U has been forced very quickly with the ever present need for feminism, making the growing pains rather aparent with her personal story arc waring thin with femenist tropes filling the gaps.

I hope this all makes sense.
