WARNING: The following contains major spoilers for Captain Marvel #24 by Kelly Thompson, Lee Garbett, Belen Ortega, Antonio Fabela and VC's Clayton Cowles, on sale now.
Captain Marvel's future is not a good one -- at least not from what she's seen of it so far. The world is a frozen and decrepit wasteland, New York City a crumbling mockery of its former glory and humanity is all but extinct. Carol Danvers has found a small group of survivors among the horrors of this version of the world, mostly comprised of the children of her old friends that she is now meeting for the first time. Among them, one stands out as a bit different than the rest, maybe even mightier. Thor's daughter has finally revealed her full name, and it is perfect.
The opening page of Captain Marvel #24 sees the titular hero and her compatriots on a tour of the mysterious and menacing Ove's personal sanctuary. Ove himself is the son of the Atlantean Namor and the Asgardian Echantress, much as the majority of the survivors themselves have heroic and fantastic lineages. Brigid, much like Ove, is half Asgardian, though it's yet to be seen exactly who her mother is. Confusing matters further, Brigid's full name is revealed to be Brigid Thorsdottir.
It might seem like a simple-minded decision made by Brigid's often simple-minded father, but it's more likely that the name is just one of tradition. Much like in our very real world Scandinavia, the majority of Marvel's Asgardians seem to stick to the tradition of family names being given by combining the patriarch's first name as a prefix to either "son" or "dottir," the most prime examples of this being Thor Odinson, Loki Laugeyson and now Brigid Thorsdottir herself. This fun factoid still can't get rid of the most burning question regarding the character, though, and that is simply who Brigid's mother is.
The case has already been made that Brigid's mother is Thor's current (in the present) love interest Jennifer Walters, aka She-Hulk, but that certainly isn't the only possibility. In the present that Carol Danvers was ripped from, Thor is currently nowhere to be seen, having been replaced by the psychotic god that has become his long-missing alter ego Donald Blake. If Brigid is in her late twenties or early thirties, then it might not be possible for She-Hulk to be Brigid's mother. Although we do see the young Asgardian side by side with another hero who she bears a slight resemblance to in this issue, opening up the mystery to further possibilities.
During a clandestine search of the sanctuary, Captain Marvel and her allies discover that the oasis is being maintained by superpowered slaves, forced to use their abilities as Ove and Enchantress wish. When confronted by the two villains before they can escape, Brigid stands just behind Carol Danvers and the two do look a little bit alike. Though Carol is in a happy and loving relationship with James Rhodes aka War Machine in her present, she's already met James' future daughter, and the two of them are not related. While this does mean that her relationship with Rhodey probably won't go the way she wants it to, it also opens up the possibility that she and her fellow Avenger could find a spark between them in the not too distant future. Then again, with the way each of the heroes' respective stories has been going, any dimension or decade would probably make sense too.
