Classic Carol Danvers Ms Marvel Costume

Carol Danvers first appeared in Marvel Super-Heroes #13, 1968. Carol originally was a Security Chief for the United States Air Force and had no super powers. However, she encountered Captain Marvel and then was accidentally transformed by some otherworldly radiation into a superhuman warrior - Ms. Marvel. Carol is one of Marvel's most powerful and prominent heroes and the only heroine as a member of the Avengers.

This is Carol’s most famous Ms Marvel Costume. It helped establish her Ms. Marvel identity as a unique character and not just a simple spin off of the original Captain Marvel. This black one piece spandex body suit had a yellow lightning bolt on the front. The lightning bolt started at the neck and would run all the way down. Carol also wears black thigh high boots and opera length gloves. Carol kept the long red scarf as a reminder of her origins but instead wore it around her waist as a sash. She also wears a black mask on her face.

The Original Carol Danvers Ms Marvel Costume

Although Carol would switch to different costumes over the years, I miss her original Ms Marvel Costume.

When Carol Danvers first appeared as Ms. Marvel, she was wearing a modified version of Captain Marvel’s costume. The costume is a red and blue bodysuit with an eight-point yellow star centered on the chest. However, her bodysuit did not cover much of her body. There were no legs on the bottom and the top had diamonds cut out of the front and back. This left her legs, lower back, and midriff exposed. Her blue boots with red strip at the top matched her costume and she also wore a blue mask to hide her identity. Rather than a cape, Ms. Marvel wore a long red scarf that created the same flowing effect.

The second Ms. Marvel’s costume was very similar to her first in appearance. However, it was much more conservative. There were still no leggings but the diamonds cut out of the front and back were gone. Carol had a solid top covering her entire upper half.
