Here’s how Marvel described the issue:

From unimaginable story arcs just like the revolutionary “Re-Entry” and Carol’s darkish flip in “The Last Avenger” to pivotal tie-ins to a few of Marvel’s largest occasions like War of the Realms and Empyre, CAPTAIN MARVEL has been a Marvel must-read because the very begin. Along the way in which, the title has garnered new lifelong Carol Danvers followers and delighted the character’s devoted fanbase. True Believers gained’t wish to miss Thompson’s epic farewell that celebrates this unimaginable achievement!
It has been an inconceivable journey – one which’s taken Carol Danvers throughout time and house and pitted her towards enemies new and outdated. This historic run has put Marvel’s premier heroine by way of the gauntlet, and now the boss of house burns brighter than ever. No one believed she would get this far. But that’s the ability of Captain Marvel and her Carol Corps: They won’t ever quit. Higher, additional, quicker – to the very finish.
Kelly Thompson shared her experiences engaged on the high-profile character:
“When Marvel asked me to write Carol’s new Captain Marvel series back in 2018, in the lead up to her first film, I was delighted and also terrified. But I’m glad I didn’t let the terror win, because it has truly been a fantastic experience. I’ve worked with some of the most incredible people in the business — I’d list them all but at 50 issues it’s a truly massive list! — but I certainly have to call out editor Sarah Brunstad who brought me in and helped build this book from the very beginning. She has been a constant source of support through a run that I don’t think either of us ever imagined would be nearly five years deep and heading toward issue 50. While it hasn’t always been easy, I’m so proud of the stories we’ve told with Carol, but none of it would have been possible without the fans. Captain Marvel fans are some of the best comic fans — and humans — I’ve ever experienced, truly. So thank you for this run. We made it, but you all made it so loved, and so long. Thank you.”
With the upcoming The Marvels movie scheduled to reach within the fall, that includes not solely Brie Larson returning as Carol Danvers however a staff up with Ms. Marvel (Iman Vellani) and Monica Rambeau (Teyonah Parris), it’s appears secure to anticipate a relaunch or some type of tie-in e-book earlier than the tip of the 12 months.
Look for Captain Marvel #50 to reach in shops and digitally on Wednesday, June sixth.
