Notes:

Carol Danvers became Ms. Marvel after the Kree Psycho-Magnetron filled her body with Kree DNA from Mar-Vell. She gained physical power, flight, and a 7th sense that provided her with premonitions. She also appropriated a degree of Kree military knowledge, and the ability to switch from her civilian clothes to her costume.

After battling Rogue in Avengers Annual #10, Carol lost her powers permanently. Carol retained her half-Kree genetic code, and Xavier helped her regain her memories, but within the emotional attachment to them. She was subjected to evolutionary experiments by the Brood in Uncanny X-Men (1st series) #163. This turned her into Binary; she could now assume an energy-state with phenomenal strength and durability, the power to survive in outer space, and a subspatial link to a "white hole". Binary could tap this "white hole" to focus energies such as light, heat, gravity, radio waves, and concussive release.

After saving Earth's sun from anti-matter in Quasar #34, Carol's powers began to dwindle, and she has dropped from cosmically powerful to simply very powerful as of Avengers (3rd series) #4, where she assumed the name Warbird.

She returned to her Ms. Marvel identity as of roughly House of M #1. She became Captain Marvel VI in Captain Marvel (6th series) #1.

Captain Marvel I was Mar-Vell, II was Monica Rambeau, III was Genis-Vell, IV was Phyla-Vell, V was Noh-Varr. Ms. Marvel II was Sharon Ventura, III was Moonstone.

Ms. Marvel II was Sharon Ventura, III is Karla Sofen, aka Moonstone.
