Absolutely fantastic writing and artwork, just as expected after a phenomenal first issue. Once again Wilson tackles multiple themes such as being a child of immigrants, growing up Muslim in a community with little understanding of Islam, and western beauty ideals by weaving them together forming Kamala's own tapestry of her identity. As if these weren't enough threads, Kamala finds herself with a new thread of emerged shape-shifting superpowers, which definitely aren't as fun or liberating as she imagined, and before she is finished processing this she has to decide if she should save the ignorant Zoe or let her drown. It is this decision which tells us readers exactly what kind of person Kamala is, even if she herself hasn't quite figured it out yet. 5 out of 5 stars.

I think, and really, really hope, that this series is going to be exceptional. Love it so far.

Kamala can't figure out what's happening to her. It still very funny and the edge is rising.

Oh, my undying love for Kamala Khan. One thing that I absolutely love is that she actually quotes the Quran, and there are truly some beautiful quotations within that some people forget about. I think I'd forgotten just how much I enjoy this comic series. There is so much action, but there's also a lot of personal development seen in Kamala - and also in her close friend Bruno, in ways. I really am having fun re-reading them all.

This is amazing. It's nothing like I'd ever normally read, and it's mostly thanks to the excitement of [a:Tamora Pierce|8596|Tamora Pierce|https://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/authors/1209044273p2/8596.jpg] about this title that I've ended up reading it. I'd taken in buzz about it from elsewhere, but it was her squee-ing posts that pushed me into reading it. I really enjoyed the first issue, and this issue continues the brilliance. The writing is great, it's humorous and touching; the part about courage and costumes particularly demonstrates this. I know nothing about Ms/Captain Marvel at all, so I don't know if her size-changing powers go with the character or not, but they're certainly interesting. I'm really looking forward to the rest of these issues and seeing where it goes!
