The small details make this brilliant. Little signs in shop windows. Characters in the background doing stuff aside from the story. The different body types, skin tones, heights, genders all making it more interesting and real. Plus Khan is heartfelt and well researched.

So, I'm getting a bit superhero-y at the moment - reading this, and Wonder Woman. And I have to say, just 1 issue of this kicks whole volumes of Wonder Woman's behind. Why? The writing. This is how you do it people! Last year I had Locke & Key and Rachel Rising to get excited about when new issues came out. I've still got RR of course, but I'm super pleased that I've now got this title filling the Locke & Key spot. It's a happy Wednesday when there's a new issue of Ms. Marvel!
There's a lot to this story that reminds me of Spider-man. The high school setting, the coming-of-age/getting used to new powers = puberty metaphor, and the humour. Which is all a Good Thing. There's also a moment in this issue that reminded me of Alice in Wonderland, another Good Thing.
Marvel should already be working on adapting this title into a film in a couple of years, it's that amazing.

I'm completely in love with this series and I've only read 3 issues which is rare. I think this has to do with my deep seated love for all things Marvel so of course this was going to be no exception.
I really enjoyed this instalment, I thought it was interesting, and the art work is just absolutely fantastic.

particularly the scene in the mosque, where it showed the girl on her phone and them looking completely uninterested because the lecturer couldn't see them behind the screenjwmcoaching's review

This continues to get better as it goes along and I'm really enjoying the cultural detail (like the scene in the mosque). The only thing that's bothering me at this point is the whole white skin look when she transforms. I hope this is explained and/or cleared up soon. I'm betting that it's just for preserving her identity for now.

I woke up in the middle of the night and had to finish this volume because Jemma and Coulson from S.H.I.E.L.D. showed up. How could I put it down? I'm glad I also have volume 4 but will wait til tomorrow to start it.

It's official, I'm following a comic series.I usually only read comics after they've been out for a minute, or at least they have some trades out (ten comic books bound together with a cardboard cover). But I'd heard a lot about these comics and I just couldn't wait! Ms. Marvel is Kamala Khan a Pakistani American teenager who's Muslim. It's awesome, you should read it (EXCEPT issue #2 is out of print, comics are different then books it turns out, so YOU might need to wait for the trade)!

Another great issue! I can't wait for things to unveil. I feel for Kamala's struggle. There really are people who make you feel uncomfortable; it may just be a case of feeling more confident about yourself and less intimidated by others, it may appear simple but it's a struggle most people go through.

I'm really enjoying those comics ! The story is pretty "classic" so far but still very good. Also, seeing a muslim woc main character is a very good change.
