Butters and Fazekas brought Agent Peggy Carter to ABC for her 8-episode first season in 2015, and are readying her return in Season 2. They’ll be taking the reins of Carol Danvers’ adventuresfrom Kelly Sue DeConnick, who has written the character since she took over the mantle of Captain Marvel in 2012.
Anka has been working as part of the art team on the Marvel Now iteration of Uncanny X-Men, helping writer Brian Michael Bendis tell stories such as “The Last Will and Testament of Charles Xavier.”
As with yesterday’s Doctor Strange announcement, and Marvel Now’s Guardians of the Galaxy before that, the new Captain Marvel assigns a high-profile team to one of Marvel Studios’ in-development films, with the Captain Marvel movie slated for a 2018 release.
