Whew. I won't lie: Captain Marvel Vol. 10 is an intense read. In truth, the entire Revenge of the Brood arc has been one heavy-hitting moment to the next. Kelly Thompson has always been good about that – creating an emotional arc that ties back to Carol's past.
Somebody is always out there with a bone to pick with a Hulk. Pick a Hulk, any Hulk, and somebody is gunning for their abilities/strength/etc. Unfortunately, that means Jen's life gets messed up from time to time.
The Scarlet Witch, aka Wanda Maximoff, has put herself between Darcy Lewis and Scythia. One is oath-bound to hunt and kill the other, which means we're on the precipice of yet another battle for the Scarlet Witch.
Captain Marvel Vol. 9 contains a single-issue plot and the beginning of a new plot arc; Revenge of the Brood.
The time has finally come. It's time to learn why Darcy Lewis ran away, winding up as The Scarlet Witch's shopkeeper. Sure, that sounds like a fun (if dangerous) job, but that can't be the real reason why Darcy is here. As it turns out – there's a hunt happening, with Darcy as the prey.
It isn't every day that She-Hulk comes across a villain that can hold up against her. It's next to impossible to back away when she does, even with everyone (read: Reed) telling her to do that. Not her style.
The Revenge of the Brood continues ever onward. Captain Marvel and crew started this mission in an attempt to save Rogue and Binary. But in true fashion, the battle has turned, and now they're fighting on a whole different scale.
She-Hulk #11 kicks off a whole new plot arc! Jennifer Walters and her new beau are trying to figure out their new normal – easier said than done. Meanwhile, the superpower fight club (still in need of a name) is going strong. Then there's the new thief hitting New York City.
Despite their best efforts, Binary is still very much trapped by The Brood. Carol Danvers, Jessica Drew, Jennifer Takeda, and several X-Men are on a quest to save her – and Rogue. However, The Brood are putting up more resistance than expected, causing Jennifer Takeda, aka Hazmat, to take extreme measures.
Most fans now understand that Scarlet Witch has opened a new shop. This shop just so happens to have a very special door that brings the desperate directly to her. This is how Wanda hopes to help those in need. The latest person to wander through her door is from Sub-Atomica, meaning Wanda is about to get very tiny to deal with this latest threat.
