People whining about changing colors/genders of superheroes is so tiresome. These are corporate controlled properties. The ones doing the changing are the proper owners and they are entitled to do as they please with them.
Besides, it is ALWAYS a stunt. Inevitably, the 'new' character becomes a spin-off character and the original returns. This has been happening since the eighties (or earlier if you want to talk about the new Green Lantern, Flash, Hawkman and so forth).
And honestly, I don't get your pointing to Captain Marvel?
