Monica Rambeau and the Benefits of Chronological Privilege

Comic Book Dictionary is a feature where we occasionally define terms having to do with comic books. Today, we look at how much of comic book fandom behavior is based on chronological privilege. Monica Rambeau has been part of some unusually strong comic book stories for a character that hasn’t really been a major Marvel character for nearly three decades. She was created by Roger Stern and John Romita Jr. as the new Captain Marvel in 1982 and then quickly became part of Stern’s excellent run on The Avengers. Dwayne McDuffie wrote a pair of strong Captain Marvel one-shots in the late 1980s/early 1990s, and then Warren Ellis included her in Nextwave in the 2000s, and Al Ewing used her in Mighty Avengers and The Ultimates in the last decade. All of these were acclaimed runs for a character that has had such a relatively low profile for so many years (Eve L. Ewing also wrote a strong recent Monica Rambeau: Photon miniseries).How Does a Superhero Get to be in the Final Battle of a Crossover Event?
