This is actually a 4.5, but no half stars on here yet.
This was such an excellent volume because it focused so much on Ms. Marvel's support community. We got to see what makes these supporting characters so good. I also love the teen drama elements that are present, but not overbearing.
So, why the half star deduction? The art across issues wasn't as cohesive as I would have liked. Sure, that is being nitpicky, but I can't help it.

Ms. Marvel is missing, so all of her friends don the uniform to take down the bad guys. With a little Super help.
I love this crew. They give me all the warm fuzzies.

The most surprising and noteworthy thing about this volume of Ms. Marvel is that she's not in most of it. That's right - we don't even get to see periodic "Meanwhile..." pages illuminating what's keeping Kamala away and silent from all her friends and family and city - the title character of this book is completely absent from I think the first three issues here. In doing this, G. Willow Wilson and the fantastic illustrator Nico Leon are able to focus our attention on how Kamala Khan's supporting cast of friends acts in her absence. Without Ms. Marvel protecting Jersey City, there's a vacuum that needs to be filled, and they make that into a lovely story.
My favorite segments in this book were of Zoe trying to pretend to be Ms. Marvel and struggling with a realistic crush on the new Mean Girl in school, and the sweet conversation between Kamala and her Imam.

Very interesting how they would infuse Ms. Marvel mantel with the personality of each of Kamala's friends. This is part of the 'Legacy' imprint Marvel had done which is quite a good idea of how being a hero is not about the person but the essence of that being's presence. That it's the act itself and not her being necessarily present. And that saving the world, or Jersey City, doesn't need to be a one-person task. Even in being a superhero, your friends always have your back.
