Synopsis

Rick Jones copes with being Mar-Vell's Earth host and Captain Marvel battles Yon-Rogg and The Mandroid who have kidnapped Carol Danvers at an old Kree outpost. During the battle, Yon-Rogg shoots Carol with a laser which causes her to fall unconscious beneath the damaged Kree Psyche-Magnitron. Captain Marvel rescues her (but not before the Magnitron alters her genetically, allowing for her to gain the powers she will later use as Ms. Marvel).
