The most intriguing aspect of “The Marvels” revolves around the mystery that connects Carol Danvers, Monica Rambeau, and Kamala Khan. The post-credits scene in “Ms. Marvel” first teased Kamala and Carol swapping places, but the trailer indicates that this phenomenon continues, ultimately tying the three heroes together. Tasked with understanding and solving this enigmatic quirk, Carol, Monica, and Kamala must unite to confront the formidable Dar-Benn, whose malevolent plans threaten the safety of the universe.
