So what happens when Billy lives within this crime ridden, Drug infested, car stealing, crack abusing scum driven neighborhood. He adapts. He doesn't fall into a life of crime but he does learn to evolve with it. It's also helps to replace a snot nosed, wimpy, little sweater wearing kid with the sarcastic, hard ass, older teenager whose learned a couple of maneuvers with his fist and feet. His life as a mortal coupled with the life of being the Mystical Mr. Marvel and having to deal with pretty much saving the whole fucking world has caused him to see more f...d up shit sometimes than he can handle. The struggle of being a super human mystical big guy and a poor young kid in a terrible neighborhood may sometimes wear on him but he can still see how things can be better. All he has to do is say one word. That's me but what do you think?
Another character that's always left me cold, but something in Captain Marvel's face immediately grabbed me. The expression is grim without being repressed. He looks like he's pondering how to handle some super heroic challenge, but I think it's the age of his face that really got me. Marvel's typically drawn looking like he's in his early 20s and still kind of baby-faced. Instead, you've made him looks experienced, kind of like an older soldier. Not that he's a warfighter per se, but he's got that same look of serious intent as opposed to the "Big Red Cheese." He's a magical being from an eternal line of wizards and such (I don't remember the exact details of his origin, but I think I'm close) so I guess he could look like physical perfection forever, but this Captain Marvel looks like he could swap crime fighting stories with Batman and not feel like a goofball.
I've got it: This Captain Marvel looks like the kind of hero who's smacked Darkseid around and walked away with victory in hand.

Keep up the awesomtacular work dude!
