review 1: I was a little disappointed in this. Recommended by Neil Gaiman I expected grand things. I loved the setting and Wilson's thoughtful treatment of some knotty issues. But the fantasy element didn't grab me, and at times the writing style actually made me cringe inside a little ...

review 1: While the serialized version of this comic garnered a lot of attention for featuring a young female Muslim teenager as a super-hero, that's not what makes this book special. What makes it special is the way that G. Willow Wilson and Alfredo Alphona have created a classic teen sup...

review 1: I loved this book. So much. I loved it so much that I feel like I am a (very) slightly different person after reading it, or at least that I better understand the person I am after reading it. This may become my new way of explaining why I occasionally actually give a book *gasp*...

review 1: I'd give this 4 and a half stars if I could, mainly cause I kinda felt let down a little by Wilson in this one. When I first heard that Wilson was writing the story, I was beyond excited because she usually nails character perspectives and development. However, in this case, it f...

review 1: Kamala Khan is your average 16 year old social misfit. She is really good when it comes to school and the intricacies of pop culture, but believes she does not fit in. Still learning how to manage her powers, after gaining the ability to shape-shift from the fog that descended up...

review 1: It's official, I'm following a comic series.I usually only read comics after they've been out for a minute, or at least they have some trades out (ten comic books bound together with a cardboard cover). But I'd heard a lot about these comics and I just couldn't wait! Ms. Marvel i...

review 1: With the destination set (characters being known, set-ups being done, situations and info revealed), the second volume wastes NO TIME with bringing you into the story. It picks up where the first volume left off, soaring further into the air, bringing up new mysteries, situations...

review 1: Introducing: the Amazing Box with Legs Man, also known as Thigh Gap Extraordinaire Man, also known as Wolverine.I really like this series. I like the characters, the story and the different view it gives (because of how Kamala is not a 'standard' type for a superhero). But I'm no...

review 1: At this issue they switched artists, which is a totally legit thing that ALL comics do. But it throws me off every time! I'm just too much of a graphic novels kid, I'm used to the characters I know looking a certain way and it's jarring to me to have to readjust to new art. My fi...

review 1: "I was still American, and I wanted to write for Americans." (page 272, THE BUTTERFLY MOSQUE, by G. Willow Wilson)...this American here is very grateful-what a beautiful book ever with the topic of Islam! She is a blessing of a writer and had captured my heart in falling in love ...

review 1: The instant gratification of this is exactly what I need right now. However, even though it's certainly an easy read, it's rich enough to lend itself to analysis. I am beginning to answer some of my own questions and address my concerns about Kamala's appearance when she becomes ...

review 1: "Generation Why": One of the best issues ever of the series, even if only by the short but heartfelt and true analysis of today's youth.And this is how Kamala won everyone's hearts, not only Muslim young girls. She's the superhero(ine) every outcast was waiting for and needed. La...
