Powers/Abilities: Chewie is a female member of
the nearly extinct extraterrestrial species known as Flerken. Like with
all members of her kind her external appearance resembles that of a
housecat from the planet Earth.
She has access through her gullet to a pocket dimensions inside her
body and presumably bubbles of space and time that exist on other
planets. Her fanged inner jaws and tentacles she used in combat were
stored in her pocket dimension. She is believed to be able to store
whole armies and maybe even universes inside her pocket dimension.
Chewie was seen devouring a whole human body in one swoop without
hurting the person though it would have been digested over time. She
also devoured a large portion of an alien hive at one point. She can
teleport herself and others by passing through her pocket dimension to
wherever she sought. Though the maximum distance of this power is
unknown she was seen teleporting herself and one other person from a
planet to an orbiting spaceship in outer space.
Chewie was apparently pregnant when she first met Carol Danvers and
stored her 117 eggs inside this pocket dimension for an unknown amount
of time until they were ready to hatch. She was very temperamental
during this period. Causing damage to her pocket dimension can force
her to release whatever she devoured and sent there.
Chewie was temporarily possessed by a
Carnage-controlled symbiote, which made her tentacles and inner jaws
appear more monstrous than ever, but also made her a considerable
threat to even Captain Marvel (Carol Danvers).
Height (at shoulder): 12" (by approximation)
Length: 20" (by approximation)
Weight: 10 lbs. (by approximation though variable due to indeterminable additional mass from Flerken organs)
Eyes: Yellow
Hair: Orange (variable)
History:
(Captain Marvel VIII#8 (fb) - BTS) - The Flerken arrived on Earth pregnant. Her species was in danger of going extinct.
(Giant-Size Ms. Marvel#1) - During a fight against
Sir Warren Traveler Ms. Marvel found a cat in a burning apartment. She
tossed the cat at Traveler, who panicked and used his time displacement
spell. While he usually returned within seconds he didn't this time
around and the cat was gone with him, which saddened Ms. Marvel a bit.
(Ms. Marvel II#4) - Reporter Lori Griffin, who had
been invited by Carol's publicist Sarah Day to do a sit down interview
with Carol, picked up the cat sitting on Carol's couch and asked Carol
what the name of the cat was. Carol told her that she didn't have a cat
and then remembered that she last saw this cat when she tossed it at
Sir Warren Traveler. Carol told everyone to leave her apartment
immediately, but it was already too late. Traveler crashed through the
wall and attacked. Carol defeated him and brought him to Doctor Strange
while Sarah Day gave the cat some pets.
(Ms. Marvel II#5 - BTS) - Doctor Strange used the
form of the cat to contact Carol in her dreams to ask her for help
because Traveler had overpowered him. They eventually defeated Traveler.
Carol lived with her cat, which she
named Chewie, in a room at the Ritz Carlton Hotel for three weeks while
her apartment was repaired.
(Ms. Marvel II#5) - When her apartment was repaired
Carol finally took Chewie to her new home. They were welcomed by
Captain America.
(Ms. Marvel II#13) - Chewie was lying on Carol's bed
and received some pets while Carol was on the cellphone with William
Wagner. Carol stopped petting Chewie when Anya Corazon arrived.
(Ms. Marvel II#15) - Chewie was sleeping next to Carol in her bed on Minicarrier 13.
(Ms. Marvel II#17) - Chewie approached a down on her
luck Carol in her quarters on Minicarrier 13 and she picked up the
little furball to ask her if it would get any easier.
(Ms. Marvel II#22) - On Minicarrier 13 Anya Corazon was petting Chewie and then carried the feline around.
(Ms. Marvel II#25) - Chewie was sleeping on the bed in Carol's room at Hotel Conway.
(Ms. Marvel II#43) - When Ms. Marvel (Carol Danvers)
was granted a life apart from her superhero life by the Storytellers as
screenwriter Catherine Donovan she lived in an apartment in Los Angeles
with Chewie. When her bowl was empty Chewie began to meow and jump on
Catherine's desk. It took some time for Catherine to understand what
was going on, but in the end she filled up Chewie's bowl with Phiskas (probably the non-brand version of a more popular cat food) cat food.
(Ms. Marvel II#46 - BTS) - Catherine Donovan's mind
got trapped inside Ms. Marvel (Karla Sofen)'s head. She continued her
life and completely forgot about the raging Sofen when she needed to
feed Chewie. She later couldn't get any work done when Chewie was
sitting on her lap, but Moonstone (Karla Sofen) broke through the
illusion and attacked her to get rid of Catherine and reunite her with
Ms. Marvel (Carol Danvers).
(Captain Marvel VII#9) - Chewie was excited about
something while Carol was on the phone with Tony Stark. She followed
around Carol and jumped on her lap to get some pets. She wasn't very
excited about her annual exam, which Carol wanted to take her to at
around 9:00 AM so Chewie could get her shots. Stuck in a cat carrier
Chewie hissed at coffee vendor Dave, who wanted to pet her. They took a
stop in the park and Chewie was still miffed when they left. When Carol
saw two dinosaurs fighting on a street she handed Chewie over to taxi
driver Roberto and asked him to transport Chewie to the veterinary
clinic at 77th Worth near Broadway (calling it a disguised Avengers Outpost and claiming Chewie was actually Spider-Man undercover).
Carol later sent her new assistant Wendy Kawasaki to pick up Chewie
from the clinic. Carol later met Kawasaki with Chewie and several other
friends waiting at the doctor. Carol picked up Chewie and went into Dr.
Nayar's office. Nayar revealed that Carol couldn't fly anymore.
(Captain Marvel VII#10) - Carol was woken up by her
ringtone and asked Chewie what they did to deserve being woken up. She
picked up Chewie and carried her around while talking to Wendy on the
phone. She put Chewie on the table during a meeting with Frank
Gianelli. When Captain Marvel (Carol Danvers) left to go on patrol
Frank stayed behind with Chewie.
(Captain Marvel VII#11) - Chewie greeted Carol at the
door when she got home and received some pets while Carol read her
mail. Chewie then watched Carol read the legal papers she just got
served.
(Avengers: The Enemy Within#1) - Chewie hissed at
Yon-Rogg when he entered Carol's apartment. When Carol later kicked in
the door Chewie got scared and hissed at her as well. Carol immediately
apologized and hugged the little furball. They found souvenirs on the
table that showed all the enemies Captain Marvel had to face over the
last few weeks and that the last piece of the Psyche-Magnitron was stolen. Chewie started playing with the Poundcakes action figure on the table while Carol tried to explain to Jessica Drew what the Psyche-Magnitron was.
(Captain Marvel VII#14) - Frank Gianelli carried
Chewie to the roof of the apartment building Carol lived in and petted
Chewie after Captain Marvel (Carol) had thwarted Magnitron (Yon-Rogg)'s
plan by severing him from his energy source (herself) and sacrificing a portion of her memories in the process.
(Captain Marvel VII#17) - Chewie watched Wendy, Frank
and Tracy pack up Carol's stuff in her apartment. Chewie meowed when
Carol hugged Frank.
(Captain Marvel VIII#1) - Kit stayed over at Carol's
new home in the head of the Statue of Liberty for a sleepover. Carol
gave Chewie some pets and then let her walk off. Chewie later joined
Carol and Kit in bed.
(Captain Marvel VIII#2 (fb) - BTS) - Carol tried to
find someone to take care of Chewie, but nobody wanted to take Chewie
because she was so mean. Carol saw no other option than to take Chewie
into outer space on her spaceship Harrison.
(Captain Marvel VIII#2) - Chewie lay on the controls
while Captain Marvel tried to activate her spaceship's universal
translator. She had to push Chewie off to activate it. When the
Haffensye ship fired on the Harrison even after Carol explained that
she was an Avenger on a medical transport to Torfa she put Chewie into
her cat carrier so she could take care of the Haffensye. Chewie got
aggravated and hissed when her cat carrier nearly fell to the floor.
The Haffensye fled when Captain Marvel received some support from the
Guardians of the Galaxy (Drax, Gamora, Groot, Rocket Raccoon,
Star-Lord). Chewie approached Star-Lord, who gave him pets, but when
Rocket saw the little furball he pulled out his gun and fired on Chewie
because he recognize it as a Flerken. Carol stopped Rocket from
shooting her hissing pet Chewie. Carol told him that Chewie was just a
cat, but Rocket insisted that they needed to burn the Flerken before
she laid eggs. Chewie walked off, but hissed one more time at Rocket
when he threatened her. Chewie later walked around the ship and was
seen by Tic, who had awakened from her coma.
(Captain Marvel VIII#3) - Tic stole Carol's ship with
Chewie still on board. Chewie joined Tic at the controls and got scared
when the Guardians of the Galaxy and Captain Marvel tried to stop her.
Tic accidentally ran the ship into Captain Marvel and Chewie and Tic
both watched through the window as Captain Marvel took control over her
ship again via voice command. Chewie joined the interrogation of Tic by
Captain Marvel and Star-Lord and seemed pretty mad until Tic began to
cry. Chewie then jumped on Tic's lap to console her.
(Captain Marvel VIII#4) - When Captain Marvel and her
new crew took off into space again from Ursor 2 Chewie sat in Tic's lap
and received some well-deserved pets.
(Captain Marvel VIII#5) - Captain Marvel flew into
space with her ship and gave Chewie some pets before going outside to
face the Spartax Empire's fleet to defend the planet Torfa from them.
(Captain Marvel VIII#7 (fb) - BTS) - Captain Marvel
left her ship and Chewie with the Guardians of the Galaxy. Star-Lord
let Rocket Raccoon fix the ship and guard the Flerken.
(Captain Marvel VIII#7) - Captain Marvel and Tic
returned to the Harrison where they met Rocket. Carol was shocked that
Star-Lord would let Rocket guard her cat when he had tried to kill it.
Rocket assured her that the Flerken was fine because he had promised
not to hurt her. He showed her Chewie trapped inside a box. Carol freed
Chewie, who ran off into the cockpit. While Carol and Rocket argued
about the Flerken, Chewie meowed and hissed to indicate that something
was wrong. Because Rocket had put out word that he was in possession of
a Flerken, which attracted an unidentified hive of goo-like creatures.
Carol put Chewie in cargo stow so she was not in the way during the
attack and then went outside to deal with the hive creatures. Rocket
suggested handing over the Flerken, but Carol was vehemently against
it. Carol still discussed with Rocket what to do next when Tic pulled
them away to show them Chewie in inside the cargo stow, which was now
filled with her eggs. Rocket gloated and Carol was pretty surprised by
the fact that Chewie actually was a Flerken. Tic was holding on to
Chewie while her eggs began to hatch and Carol and Rocket tried their
best to defend the ship and the Flerken.
(Captain Marvel VIII#8) - The hive wanted to take the
last living Flerken into custody, but Carol ordered Tic to take Rocket,
Chewie and her eggs to their shuttle while she took care of the
attacking hive. Before Rocket could enter the shuttle though, Chewie
jumped him to defend her hatching young from him. They ended up trapped
on the Harrison, but Rocket didn't want to kill Chewie anymore as he
felt kinship with her because she was the last of her kind like him.
When the lights went out Rocket defended Chewie against the invading
hive, which was ultimately devoured by Chewie while the rest of the
hive was destroyed by Captain Marvel in outer space. Rocket was
impressed by Chewie, who had finally the chance to meet her young.
Carol and Tic moved into a new home
with Chewie and her young in the T.D. Polyviv Refugee Rehab and
Relocation Center in the Tyvorn Cluster while Rocket repaired their
ships. Carol said goodbye to Tic, Chewie and the little Flerken to
leave on her own, but Tic and Chewie used Chewie's teleportation power
to join her once again on the Harrison. Chewie left behind her children
and Carol rightfully called her a terrible mother (or maybe it is normal for Flerken to let their young fend for themselves). Tic was sure all 117 Flerken babies would be okay at the finest rescue center in the galaxy.
(Captain Marvel VIII#9) - Tic had Chewie on her lap
while she and Carol traveled through space listening to Lila Cheney's
latest song. Chewie jumped off Tic's lap when Lila teleported onboard
and approached Lila alongside Tic and Carol.
(Captain Marvel VIII#12 (fb) ) - While Captain Marvel
and Lila Cheney were back on Earth to deal with a threat the Haffensye
attacked the Harrison and abducted Chewie and Tic. They were prepared
for Chewie because the Flerken was their target.
(Captain Marvel VIII#12) - When Carol returned from
Earth she watched the tapes of the abduction and realized that Chewie
was the Haffensye's target though she wasn't sure why. The Haffensye
captain responsible for abducting Chewie presented the muzzled Flerken
to the Haffensye Consortium's leaders as the greatest weapon in space
they could use against their rival Mister Knife (J'son of Spartax)
before destroying it to prevent anyone else from ever using it against
them.
(Captain Marvel VIII#13) - The Haffensye Slaver Ship
captain planned to use Chewie's ability to hold whole universes inside
her to smuggle whole armies into Mister Knife's territory to wipe him
from existence and fill her with whatever they get for selling their
cargo. When Captain Marvel found the Haffensye Slaver Ship she manually
used her ship's lasers to scare off the Haffensye, who abandoned their
ship and left behind Chewie and their slaves. Tic took control over the
Haffensye ship and swore to take down the Haffensye with her new crew
because they were hunting and selling her people as slaves. Before
saying goodbye to Captain Marvel Tic handed over Chewie to her. Chewie
walked with Captain Marvel back aboard the Harrison.
(Captain Marvel VIII#15) - Carol returned with Chewie
to Earth on the Harrison and Chewie was pretty annoyed with Carol
lifting her up and not letting her down. Chewie seemed as happy to be
back on Earth as Carol, who let Chewie walk beside her into Avengers
Tower. Inside Carol learned that Tracy Burke had died. Chewie sat on
the couch next to James Rhodes while Steve Rogers read Tracy's last
letter to Carol to everyone.
(Groot#6) - In Carol's home inside the head of the
Statue of Liberty Rocket Raccoon and Groot watched a movie while Chewie
rubbed herself against Groot.
SECRET WARS III HAPPENED
(Mighty Captain Marvel#0 (fb) - BTS) - At some point
after Carol became the commander of the Alpha Flight Space Station she
moved Chewie to the station.
(Mighty Captain Marvel#0) - Carol woke up from a
dream session with her psychiatrist in a panic and scared off Chewie,
who was lying on her legs. Chewie jumped on the table and tried to
touch the holographic projection of Carol's psychiatrist. Carol soon
shut off the hologram and Chewie hid her face behind her paws. She then
followed Carol around on the station until she lay down on the desk in
Carol's office. When an alarm went off Chewie ran along with Carol to
the bridge.
(Mighty Captain Marvel#2) - When the artificial
gravity at the station was shut off Chewie hissed at the Kree girl
Bean, who she was supposed to babysit according to Carol. Despite that
Chewie allowed the girl to hug her. When Carol met with director Jason
Jay of the Captain Marvel TV show Chewie went along. Chewie hissed at a
green-haired dog, which was part of the cast for the series, and then
walked off. Chewie was later impersonated by the shapeshifter Mim, who
attacked Carol. The fake Chewie was tossed out a window by Carol.
Meanwhile Chewie was sitting next to Bean and licking her paw. She
stayed on the bridge while Carol asked Wendy about the results of
Bean's DNA sample.
(Mighty Captain Marvel#5) - Chewie was sitting on a
windowsill while Carol discussed the protective shield around Earth
they needed against the Chitauri. When the Guardians of the Galaxy
(Gamora, Groot, Rocket Raccoon, Star-Lord) arrived on the station
Chewie hissed at the small Groot.
(Mighty Captain Marvel#9) - Back on Earth Chewie lay
on the table while Carol played poker and ate pizza with Wendy
Kawasaki, Monica Rambeau, Jessica Drew and Jessica Jones. She loved the
pets by Monica and even let her pet her tummy. She later joined Carol
while she slept in Jessica's apartment in the nursery and watched her
role around and eventually wake up to go for a run.
(Captain Marvel I#125) - At Columbia University at
the temporary home of Alpha Flight Captain Marvel and the rest of the
crew learned in a conference call with Black Panther (T'Challa) that
they were grounded for the moment after the Alpha Flight Space Station
was destroyed. During the conference call Chewie sat on young cadet
A'Di's shoulder. On their way out Chewie sat on Captain Marvel's
shoulder and held on to her when she flew to her temporary home, the
nursery at Jessica Drew's apartment. Chewie curled herself around
Carol's head while they both slept. They were woken up by the sudden
appearance of Bean.
(Life of Captain Marvel II#1 (fb) - BTS) - Carol took
Chewie to her family's home in Harpswell Sound, Maine. Marie's cat Sox
didn't get along with Chewie, who tried to eat him a few times.
(Life of Captain Marvel II#1) - Chewie got into
another hissing contest with Sox and a small scuffle. They calmed down
and both followed Carol upstairs. Chewie sat down on a mysterious box
that caught Carol's interest. Chewie lay on Carol's legs while she read
a love letter from her father to a mysterious love interest. Chewie got
a bit annoyed when she jumped and Carol dropped the box and found an
alien piece of tech. Chewie went into the garage followed by Carol, who
hit the item with a hammer and accidentally activated it.
(Life of Captain Marvel II#2) - Chewie lay on the
floor next to Carol in her room. Carol was still aghast at the letter
his father sent to another woman.
Later in the garden Marie did some
gardening and Chewie jumped into a pile of weed before playing with the
weed Marie was still holding. Carol interrupted by playtime by telling
her mother about her father's letter.
(Life of Captain Marvel II#4) - Chewie hissed at the
Kree Kleaner, but ran to safety when the powerful Kree warrior blasted
the house to get at Captain Marvel and her mother, who had just
revealed herself to be a Kree herself. Chewie stayed with Joseph and
Sox inside the damaged house.
(Absolute Carnage: Captain Marvel#1 (fb) - BTS) - At
some point Carol let Phyllis from apartment 5D catsit Chewie and she
completely overfed her. When Carol returned home Chewie had become
overweight. After this incident Carol taught Phyllis about how to
control the portions for a cat.
(Captain Marvel X#5) - In Carol's apartment Carol and
Chewie both got up in the morning and after a good scratch and getting
the newspaper had breakfast together.
(Captain Marvel X#7) - Chewie was sitting on the counter in the kitchen and received some pets from Carol.
(Marvel Comics#1000/30) - Captain Marvel fought a
Kree holding a Cosmic Cube in outer space. She punched him so hard the
Cosmic Cube flew out of his hand, but Chewie swallowed it.
(Absolute Carnage: Captain Marvel#1) - Chewie hunted
an insect, looked at the camera Carol used to keep tabs on her, rolled
around the floor, ate, looked at a cupboard, hunted an insect, rolled
around on the floor, licked her paw and drank some water before the
batteries of the camera ran out.
(Captain Marvel X#8/2) - Chewie hunted a rat taken
over by a symbiote through Carol's apartment into the bathroom where
she was attacked by a horde of symbiote-possessed rats and doves.
Chewie was then taken over by the symbiote.
(Absolute Carnage: Captain Marvel#1) - When Carol
returned home from a mission in outer space she found Chewie taken over
by a symbiote under Carnage's control. The symbiote-possessed Flerken
threatened Carol and jumped her. Carol tried to resist the Flerken's
tentacles at first, but was quickly devoured by Chewie, who licked her
paw after the meal. Captain Marvel found herself in the pocket
dimension inside Chewie where the fight against Carnage continued
because Carnage sought the codex inside Captain Marvel, which she
possessed from the time she was possessed by a symbiote herself. The
fight between Captain Marvel and Carnage inside her pocket dimension
hurt Chewie on the outside. Phyllis came by to look for an earring she
had lost earlier and saw the possessed Chewie trying to throw up.
Phyllis was sure it was her fault, but then witnessed Chewie not only
throwing up and separating herself from the symbiote, but also throwing
up Captain Marvel. Chewie sat on the table a bit surprised and Captain
Marvel asked Phyllis to take care of Chewie for a moment while she
destroyed the symbiote in outer space. Back home Carol put the
unwilling Chewie in the cat carrier and took her to Spider-Woman
(Jessica Drew) because she couldn't leave her alone while Carnage was
hunting beings, which had been possessed by symbiotes. Jessica had no
problem catsitting as long as Carol promised to babysit for her at some
time.
(Captain Marvel X#16) - Chewie followed Carol through
the apartment. When Carol lay down to sleep Chewie got her bowl and
dropped it on Carol's head because Chewie was hungry.
(Captain Marvel X#19) - Carol's sister Lauri-Ell was
stuck at Carol's apartment with Chewie and tried to get her something
to eat. When she saw the cat food she believed Carol was trying to
poison kill Chewie with it, so she opened the fridge for Chewie to
choose something on her own, but the fridge unfortunately was almost
empty. With no proper food for Chewie at the apartment Lauri-Ell put on
some civilian clothes, took some money and went out to shop with
Chewie. At a grocery store Lauri-Ell got Chewie a fish, which Chewie
carried around while they continued their walked through the streets of
New York. An attack by the Cotati suddenly drew Lauri-Ell into battle
in a park. Carol came to her aid and sent a young girl to Chewie,
promising her that the cat would protect her. Chewie instead let her
anger get the better of herself and devour a Cotati, who was going to
attack Lauri-Ell. After the battle was won, Chewie relaxed on
Lauri-Ell's belly.
(Captain Marvel X#20) - While Carol took off into
space with Hazmat, War Machine and Spider-Woman to clear Lauri-Ell's
name, Lauri-Ell stayed behind on Earth to take care of Chewie, who
purred while receiving some pets from her. They later watched TV
together until Marina Renner arrived to ask for Carol's help to save
her daughter Kit from the Cotati.
(Captain Marvel X#21 - BTS) - Chewie stayed in New York while Carol went to her underwater base in Harpswell, Maine.
(Captain Marvel X#26) - Chewie strolled around
Carol's apartment while Carol had a talk with James Rhodes. Chewie
walked around between their legs, but after Carol broke up with Rhodes
Chewie took his spot on the couch next to Carol.
(Captain Marvel X#28) - In the early morning Carol woke up in bed and Chewie meowed at her and bumped her leg with her head.
Comments: Created by Brian Reed, Roberto De La
Torre & Jimmy Palmiotti. Reinvented as Flerken by Kelly Sue
DeConnick & Marcio Takara.
The name is a reference to the Wookiee Chewbacca from Star Wars.
Chewie's appearance changed numerous times over the years. Artistic license or part of her powers?! We don't know!
Chewie was nowhere to be seen during Captain Marvel
IX (March, 2016 - January, 2017) although Carol had already moved to
the Alpha Flight Space Station. Did she just leave Chewie with a
friend? Did Chewie need some time to get acclimated on the station and
hide?
Not sure if Heroes at Home#1 (February, 2021) by Zeb
Wells (writer) and Gurihiru Studios (artist) is part of the main Marvel
Universe, but in the fourth story Captain Marvel was on a video
conference with a Skrull and a Kree and Chewie jumped in front of the
camera, inadvertently revealing that Captain Marvel was at home in
front of a stars background and not in outer space.
In IDW's Marvel Action: Captain Marvel#1 (August,
2019) written by Sam Maggs Chewie was given the full name Chewbacca
Sassy Danvers. If it is the same on Earth-616 remains unrevealed.
Captain Marvel's Flerken also made it into the Captain Marvel movie in 2019, but instead of Chewie received the name Goose (a reference to a character from the movie Top Gun).
This profile was completed 7/02/2021, but its publication was delayed as it was intended for the Appendix 20th anniversary 's celebratory event.
Profile by Markus Raymond.
CLARIFICATIONS:
Chewie should not be confused with, but is named after:
- Chewbacca, Wookie resistance fighter @ Star Wars: A New Hope (1977)
- any other cat or flerken
|
Chewie's kittens
(Captain Marvel VIII#7) - Chewie laid the eggs and the kittens started to hatch.
(Captain Marvel VIII#8) - Tic took the eggs while
some of them were already hatching to the shuttle to save them from an
unidentified alien hive. 117 Flerken kittens hatched on the shuttle
while Captain Marvel, Chewie and Rocket Raccoon destroyed the hive.
In the T.D. Polyviv Refugee Rehab
and Relocation Center Tic took care of the Flerken kittens. Chewie
abandoned her kittens in favor of being with Captain Marvel again and
teleported Tic and herself back on board the Harrison. Tic was sure the
kittens would be taken care of at the relocation center while Captain
Marvel called Chewie a bad mother.
