A three part mini series released in 1997, a year after the cancellation of the first Genis-Vell Captain Marvel title. This series was set before Marvel Super-Heroes #12 and chronicled Mar-Vell's missions before he was sent to Earth. Here we see his first encounters with the characters who would later go on to be some of Mar-Vell's most infamous enemies: Kree Officer Yon-Rogg, Galactus, the Silver Surfer, the Shi'Ar Imperial Guard, and the Brood.
