【Champion-REVERSE WEAVE】C3-Y113 RW HOODED SWEAT
1930年代に開発された"不朽の名作"と呼び声の高いリバースウィーブスウェット。洗濯を繰り返すほどタフになる11.5オンスのしっかりと肉厚のあるボディーは、着こむことで独特の風合いやアジが楽しめる一着。裏地は起毛フリースを使用しているため冬場に保温性が高く、ふんわりとした肌触りは着心地も抜群です。コットン素材は環境に配慮して生産されたサステナブルなアメリカ綿を100%使用しています。商品の名称にもなっている「REVERSE WEAVE®」製法は、本来は縦方向に使われる生地を横方向に使用するによって縦への生地の縮みを防ぐと同時に、両脇にエクスパンションガゼットを付けることで横の縮みへの影響を少なくし、動きやすさに配慮した独自の特許製法です。襟ネームは1970年代のヴィンテージチャンピオンでも使用されていた単色青タグを復刻し、着丈が短く身頃に余裕をもたせた特徴的なボックスシルエットは現代ファッションにも通ずる普遍的なアイテムとして継承された正しく"キング・オブ・スウェット"の風格です。
今作はアメリカ合衆国の空軍士官学校『USAFA（United States Air Force Academy）』をモチーフに、アーチ型の『USAFA』ロゴの下に校章をイメージしたデザインを採用。アメリカ空軍士官学校は、4年間の教育プログラムで士官候補生が正規士官として勤務するために必要となる能力やリーダーシップ、知識を育成し、卒業生は理学士（Bachelor of Science）の学位を取得して空軍少尉もしくは宇宙軍少尉に任官します。ヴィンテージチャンピオンでも人気のミリタリーモチーフを、是非この機会にお試しください。

How old is Carol Danvers???
(Inspired by a post by @blindluck which was in turn inspired by a post by me and @marvelsassbutts )
So I just found out the official Captain Marvel wiki places Carol Danvers’s birth date in 1965. At first I thought “that’s ridiculous” for reasons that will become clear through this long ass post. But then I saw they cited drawings by the assistant art director on Captain Marvel, found on her portfolio! That’s pretty official!
Wait what’s that at the bottom…
1984???? For Carol’s USAFA basic training???? This is impossible, the movie is wrong, and here’s why.
(Excerpt from my future video essay incoming)
There are no dates in Higher, Further, Faster; the marketing text on Amazon, Liza Palmer’s website, etc just says “80s.” So, we need to do some detective work.
We know that the 2019 film Captain Marvel takes place in 1995. Since it takes place in Southern California and Louisiana, the warm weather doesn’t tell us much about the time of year. Personally, I believe it takes place on March 8, 1995, because that’s the exact day I was born, and my birthday is the day the movie was released on to coincide with International Women’s Day. Regardless, Monica Rambeau is eleven years old in the film, putting her birth in 1983 or 1984. So, Maria’s pregnancy must have begun in 1982 or 1983.
Here’s a “fun” fact about US military academies: until less than one year ago (summer 2023, a full three years after Captain Marvel came out), cadets at USAFA who became pregnant were required to either drop out, have an abortion, or relinquish their parental rights to their child.
Dropping out also means reimbursing the government for your tuition for all classes you’ve taken up to this point, and giving up your ability to be commissioned as a second lieutenant in the Air Force upon graduation. Definitely not an option someone as driven as Maria wants to consider. In fact, we know this isn’t what happened, because this news article Carol hung up in her spaceship in The Marvels says that Maria Rambeau is a USAFA graduate.
We also know that Maria didn’t have an abortion, because, well, Monica Rambeau herself is tangible evidence. Theoretically, it is possible for Maria to have given up parental rights and adopted back her own child after graduation. Before the policy change in 2023 that allowed cadets to be parents, many found this to be their best option (see the article I screenshotted above). However, this process is really expensive and takes a lot of work with a lawyer over a period of months or years. From the little we know of Carol and Maria’s life pre-crash, (it was busy, they lived in an expensive area, and Maria only had Carol for support), I think we can assume that it’s less likely that Maria was forced to adopt her own daughter than that Maria graduated USAFA before becoming pregnant in 1982 or 83.
That still doesn’t answer the question of when this book takes place, though. The exact year is important, as the military had some major differences under the Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, and Ronald Reagan administrations of the 70s and 80s, and one of the things I want to assess this book on is accuracy.
Oh wait, what’s that? Another discriminatory policy that helps us date this book? That’s right, USAFA didn’t enroll women as cadets until Public Law 94-106 went into effect in 1976.
What’s more, Carol and Maria cannot have been part of this first group of women cadets, because in the book, there is an upperclassman character who is a woman. Officer Cadet Chen is one of the leaders of Basic Training for Carol and Maria’s flight, a position cadets aren’t allowed to hold until their third or fourth year at the Academy.
So, Carol and Maria must enter USAFA no earlier than 1978 to be two or more years younger than Chen, and must graduate no later than 1983 for Monica to exist. To comply with the marketing blurb’s declaration that this book takes place “in the 80s”, let’s say that Carol and Maria’s first year is the 1979-1980 school year.
(End excerpt)
In conclusion, Maria and Carol were born in 1960 or 1961 (with pretty equal likelihood of which birthday makes them 18 at the start of the book, since USAFA basic happens the summer before the school year), not 1965. It would be impossible for them to have done basic training in 1984 as in the production drawing, because they would have to have already graduated and be well on their way to test pilot school which is a whole other policy can of worms before Monica’s birth in 1983 or 1984.
In conclusion conclusion, Carol is ~34 in Captain Marvel and ~64 in The Marvels, and the MCU should hire fans to fact check for them.
#thank u blindluck for bringing my attention to this wiki I had such a fun time on this rabbit hole#the marvels#captain marvel#carol danvers#maria rambeau#higher further faster book#carolmaria#danbeau#monica rambeau

omg hii love your writing! i know u said u're trying not to set yourself up for disappointment if she's nothing like u imagined but like................free the thoughts feed temptation what's ur maria rambeau mcu binary like? 👁️
FINE !!! i'll cave (aka i love talking about maria rambeau and no force alive can stop me...not even.........me)
what is my maria rambeau binary like AHHHH honestly she's still not fully fleshed out in my head for reasons you mentioned that i may have mentioned (i'm scared of the brains at marvel) but i think ideally starting with her backstory i want it to be completely different from carol's - i think people have pointed out that 838 maria probably had a similar story to carol because of the kree suit but binary is just BINARY - i think even in the comics (someone let me know if i'm wrong) the character kind of just is (?) like it's the powers without the person if i'm understanding what people have told me lol so i think there's a lot of room to play with who maria was before the powers if there's even a before to see!
in terms of character i think about that one interview with the captain marvel cast (the insane one where brie talked for like a minute and a half straight on how maria is the love of the film.....yeah) where the interviewer said "so maria is like a softer version of carol" and lashana very quickly was like "uhh...no" and I SO AGREE !!! i think maria, because of the era she and carol came into the airforce, had to be a lot tougher than carol actually especially as a Black woman so i want binary to reflect that part of maria the one who was top of her class at USAFA
but with that in miiiiinnnndddd......maria is funny! if you haven't read the prequel novel to captain marvel (higher further faster by liza palmer) i SOOO so recommend it! she's just as fun and ridiculous and stupid (affectionate😭) as carol and while we got little glimpses of that in captain marvel we deserve so much more
this is such a tough question to answer because in terms of "616" maria rambeau we really didn't get a lot so when i think about binary i'm like "man, i hope she's developed!" and i would count that as a win lol
when it comes to her relationship with carol..............................................I'M UNDECIDED!!!!!!!!!!
obviously she doesn't have a monica (or a monice she remembers!!!!) so that leaves us questioning what her relationship with carol is if there's one at all - i think it would be kind of funny if she had a carol and just couldn't stand her and then our carol shows up like "maria!" and binary's like "aw man" but that's just my shits and giggles idea
i don't think i want her to have a carol because i want that spot to be left open for our carol because even if they give us a binary who is in love with her carol danvers it's like okay well how often are we gonna see this universe? is it just a cop out? and i think that's a valid fear with the mcu lmaoooo - PLUS i want her to be flirty SORRY I'LL SAY IT if carol does show up and she either reminds binary of someone she lost or is someone completely new i need binary to have the space to be like "what the hell is wrong with you and why is it working on me" like i need it. i need it? i need it.
so all in allllllllllllllllllllllllll my mcu binary is all the things that maria is and we didn't get the full amount of in captain marvel and the marvels one because she deserves it and two lashana can fucking DO it!
i think that's all from me for now but i will probably have more to say in 6 seconds flat.
**also thank you so much for reading my works :')) that means so so much and warms me right up
