Binary in the context of Captain Marvel refers to a powerful state or codename, not something depicted in the movie “Captain Marvel” itself. Here’s the breakdown:
- Origin: Binary is a comic book alias associated with Carol Danvers; the character Captain Marvel is based on.
- Powers: In the comics, Binary has amplified versions of Captain Marvel’s abilities, including super strength, flight, and energy manipulation. She can also tap into the fabric of the universe, granting her cosmic-level power.
- MCU (Movie) Appearance: Confusingly, the post-credits scene of “The Marvels” introduces a version of Maria Rambeau wielding immense power and wearing a costume that resembles Binary from the comics. This suggests a different reality (Earth-838) where Maria gained powers similar to Captain Marvel (possibly even becoming Binary herself).
Key Points:
- Binary is not in the movie “Captain Marvel.”
- Binary is a powerful state/codename for Carol Danvers in the comics.
- The post-credits scene of “The Marvels” introduces a version of Maria Rambeau with Binary-like powers in an alternate reality.
It creates a bit of a mystery for the MCU, as fans wonder how this alternate Maria became Binary and what connection it has to Carol Danvers.
