A review by trike
Ms. Marvel, Vol. 8: Mecca by G. Willow Wilson

3.0

I like the ideas here better than the execution. The ideas here are timely — anti-immigrant fervor sweeping the community, previouslyunderground racists feeling emboldened, the usurping of due process in the government — and they need to be talked about. Unfortunately the book leans a little hard on the preachy side. It reminds me of the anti-drug comic book issues from the 1970s.

I can only hope this makes an impression on some young minds, important counter-programming to the nastiness that’s permeating America.
