The Life of Captain Marvel

    (Marvel, 1985, 1990)
Marvel

This five part series reprinted the Jim Starlin issues of Captain Marvel (#25-34), along with Marvel Feature #12. Rather than try to give a full retrospective of the character, Marvel chose to use this series to reprint what many consider to be the high point of the Captain Marvel storyline. Featuring both Thanos and Drax the Destroyer, this series makes a fine counterpart to the “Death of Captain Marvel” Marvel Graphic Novel.
