Every week we'll pick a handful of awesome comics from the thousands available through Marvel Digital Comics Unlimited. From creator spotlights to editor's picks and more, this'll be your spot to find something new and cool.

With Brian Reed's MS. MARVEL #29 as well as the CAPTAIN MARVEL: SECRET INVASION premiere hardcover hitting stands this week, we bring to you five digital comics featuring the mightiest Marvels of the Kree race! Watch them explore their powers again as if for the first time, courtesy of Marvel Digital Comics Unlimited

CAPTAIN MARVEL #1
Thought to be dead from cancer, Captain Marvel returns from the Negative Zone to take his place as the hero Earth needs. After the super hero Civil War, Tony Stark worries that Mar-Vell's mysterious reappearance may alter the course of history, but the time-lost warrior will hear none of it, instead trying to make up for lost time battling alongside the Avengers in the heart of New York City. How did Captain Marvel really return and what implication will it have for Earth's heroes?

MS. MARVEL v1 #1
When the Scorpion kidnaps Jonah Hill, it's up to Ms. Marvel to save him! Donning her costume for the first time, Carol Danvers must cope with blackouts and inexperience on her path to becoming New York's newest hero. Witness the origin of one of the greatest heroines in the Marvel Universe as Ms. M must balance her job at the Daily Bugle with saving her boss from a man turned eight-legged carnivorous arthropod!

MS. MARVEL v2 #13
Will Ms. Marvel be the new leader of the Mighty Avengers? If Tony Stark has his way she will! However, Carol Danvers' not sure she's so sweet on the idea and there's also a DNA bomb transforming normal people into twisted shriveled shells to deal with! All this in part one of "The Deal," plus Ms. Marvel clocking Iron Man in the face without hesitation!

CIVIL WAR: THE RETURN #1
This action-packed one-shot features two stories: the first joining Captain Marvel in the Negative Zone as he comes to grips with the tragedy of his death on Earth and the implications of his return. Next, witness a fierce mid-air showdown between the Sentry and the Absorbing Man and the Golden Guardian of Good's decision on what side to take in the Civil War!

CIVIL WAR: YOUNG AVENGERS & RUNAWAYS #1
With government agents closing in, the Runaways' only hope of escaping forced registration lies with another team of teen heroes: the Young Avengers! Unfortunately for all involved, registration will be the least of the kids' problems when they run up against the incredible powerful-and incredibly insane-Kree powerhouse known as Marvel Boy!
