In the 2019 MCU film, Captain Marvel, the following exchange happens between Monica Rambeau and Fury:

Monica: Maybe I can fly up and meet you halfway.
Fury: Only if you learn to glow, like your Auntie Carol.
Monica: Or maybe I'll build a spaceship.

Captain Marvel (2019)

Now, I know that in the comics, Monica Rambeau became a superhero who took the mantle of Captain Marvel at some point, so this apparently foreshadows that Monica may become a superhero at some point in the MCU.

Does Monica Rambeau build any significant technology in the Marvel comics?

    Why does it have to allude to anything in the comics? It could be a reference to the test ship that Carol crashed in.

  • @TheLethalCarrot it doesn't have to allude; I should rather be asking if it alludes.

    People are quick to downvote, but I don't see anything wrong with this question. Seems like a legitimate good question to me.

    Glowing definitely alludes to her comic powers, not sure about building anything.

    In the comics, Monica Rambeau exhibits no special inventor or building skills in any of the stories I have read. She was a coast guard before becomg Captain Marvel, with no academic degress AFAIR.

No.

This sentence is more of a throwaway line, however in the MCU (not the comics) Monica goes on to become superpowered by passing through The Hex (or The Westview Anomaly) and also worked for S.W.O.R.D., in which she may or may not have (unconfirmed in the MCU) designed some sort of technology. (For clarity, she was not involved in the design of White Vision, which was one of S.W.O.R.D.'s more notable projects.)
