Review/plot: Captain Mar-Vell fights the Brood and rescues Una and his mean boss Yon-Rogg.

I only have the last issue of this mini series. It seems harmless enough, but also entirely unnecessary.

Quality Rating: C+

Historical Significance Rating: 1

Chronological Placement Considerations: This comes a little before Captain Marvel's first published appearance in Marvel Super Heroes #12 (Dec 1967). At the end of this issue, Mar-Vell, Yon-Rogg, and Una are assigned to a visit on a "far-off backwater" where "the natives have succeeded in defeating a Kree Sentry and repelling Ronan the Accuser (FF #64-65 / Jul-Aug 1967)" to determine if the planet is a threat to the Kree Empire.

References:

• No footnotes, but as mentioned above, Marvel Super Heroes #12, Fantastic Four #64, and Fantastic Four #65 are referenced.
