This collection had a great plot to follow on from Secret Invasion. I liked the visit to her family and exploration of the long term effects of what Rogue did to her (something I need to read). It added some depth which is important.
I also enjoyed the darker edge of her new mission and relying on her spy skills rather than superpowers. I do feel like I'm missing a lot of extra content with this one though.. I've not read Dark Reign yet so I've no idea about why Norman Osborn is hunting her, the Dark Avengers, why she can't use her powers, Noh-Varr etc. I had to employ Wikipedia a few times.
The appearance of Spider-Man was fun too.
I still hated some of the art. This time it was blown up cologne fish lips, since she wasn't in her costume there was no bum crack or weird boobs (obviously still oversized). Thankfully David Yardin's covers take over from Greg Horn!

Honestly, Spiderman was the best part of this Volume.

Great art, fun team-up with Spider-Man, beginning a catch up with an old favorite character.

I really like Ms. Marvel, but most of the time I don't get what's going on in her life.

Doesn't pass Bechdel test (comes close, with conversation with Carol's mother, but that's also about her father and brothers -- if also about Rogue). Major character changes make no sense if you haven't read Secret Invasion or Dark Avengers.

Three stars was kind of pushing it for me on this one. I usually find Spider-man's banter amusing, but this was just gross. The whole trade seemed disjointed, but once we got to her past it was really interesting. Then it all sort of fell apart for me as the ascension storyline went on, and then Spidey showed up again. High point - Machine Man.
