No kidding. Damn, you know, there were Superman stories, I think, where Superman loses his powers for an extended period of time but doesn't give up. Imagine that.
Most we get now was the Avengers where the old man stands up to Loki and says "There's always men like you."
Yeah, that kills it.
Avengers Infinity Crisis starts with Hulk himself getting his ass kicked by Thanos.
Captain Marvel never did that.
Heck....
I had a thought when watching End Game when Captain Marvel was fighting with Thanos -- a gauntlet armed Thanos.
What I would have liked to see: Thanos suffers a few blows, wonders who he's facing, and uses the Gauntlet to analyze Captain Marvel.
He learns she got her powers from an infinity stone -- the same stone on his gauntlet.
So he uses the stone to extract her powers. Turns her to a normal person.
Can Captain Marvel do something useful without her powers?
That would have been interesting.
So of course we couldn't have that.
A story arc where, through hard work and perseverance, she succeeds without her powers? Buddy that America died 20 years ago.

That would probably be censored now.
