Newbie Ms Marvel reader...provided a great introduction. Loved the dialogue and Kamala's struggle to find herself. The quality of the art seems inconsistent, but the color palette is gorgeous. Looking forward to continuing the series.

Not always a superhero fan, but this one was pretty good! I think the way the conflict unfolded felt genuine and really showed a realistic view of youth in the world. A fun read overall!

I had so much fun diving into comics some more with Ms. Marvel! I love her story and the message about being yourself! I love her time traveling dog, her friends, and her buddying up with Wolverine! Such a good collection (comics 1-11)!

This was really good! I really loved it, the main heroine was a fangirl, who loved superhero and wrote fan fiction, talk about amazing. Such a lovable and relatable character well done. The plot was greater a tough bad guy but one that she was able to learn and grow from. Loved it!

With all of the excitement behind Marvel's Avenger's Infinity War coming out in May, I have been diving in to the Marvel universe to learn as much as I can. That led me to finally getting around to reading Ms. Marvel! I'm so glad that I did, too, because she is definitely my new favorite superhero! Kamala Khan (Ms. Marvel's secret identity) is a wonderful display of not only a teenage girl on a path to discovering who SHE truly is, but a great story on how to accept who you are and love yourself exactly the way that you are.

Kamala struggles with being a Muslim american girl with crazy strict parents who want her to be "perfect" and get straight A's, go to med school, etc. But Kamala is just trying to get by and figure out who she is and her place in the world. When she is given super powers that she uses to help people a super villain harvesting teenager's energies are added to her list of problems. She does a great job of showing the struggles that every teenager goes through when trying to figure out their place in the world as well as a young superhero trying to learn their powers. Kamala has to learn to depend on her friends and know when to ask for help as well.

​I LOVED IT! I'll definitely be recommending her (and probably cosplaying her ;) ) in the future.
