Carol Danvers leaves Earth and the book turns into space opera, which turned out to be what the character needed.
The run that made her Captain Marvel rather than a supporting character, and the shift is mostly about scale and tone. She is a pilot first. The powers are the aircraft.
Worth reading before the Ms. Marvel volume, since Kamala spends that book idolising this version of her. I did it the other way round.
