(I included the above one here just because of how beautiful it is!)īut back to discussing the events that went down here. Though the art style has changed pretty drastically from the first volume, I'm glad to see that Kamala's charm hasn't.īut I do have to mentioned that the art had some great moments when we got to see just how clean the bottom of Ms Marvel's shoes are: Oh, and I forgot to mention: the family’s back! They get talking and notice pretty quickly how similar their tastes are.īy-the-bye, it was a great surprise for me to recognize a reference to a famous Bollywood actor!īut before they can get too close, her brother sets some boundaries. Oh, right, speaking of a nice young doctor: Kamran, an old family friend, who’s grown quite a lot since he and Kamala last got together, comes to visits. Love is in the air, and Kamala Khan is the one most effected when an anonymous love letter arrives in her hands. I want to love this as much as everyone else seems to, so here's hoping the next volume will be awesome. You can tell that they love her, but it seems like a very dysfunctional sort of family dynamic. I do still like Kamala, and I'm hoping that at some point she comes to her senses, and tells her family to back up off of her.

There's a cute ish story with Loki in the beginning, but, other than that, I couldn't work up any love for this volume. But other than a few Grrrs and angry pouting, she just sort of goes along with it. Which would be ok, if she ever stood up to any of them and told them to stop it. In my opinion, there are waaaaay too many people who aren't Kamala, who are deciding what she can and can't do. Then there's a whole panel about how hi-larious she thinks it is when her BFF, Bruno, invites her to a dance.īecause her parents would NEVER agree to that! Silly Bruno.īesides, as Kamala's brother points out, he's the wrong race to date her. So, sorry, but that storyline left a bad taste in my mouth. That's not exactly the sort of message I'm comfortable sending to my little girls. Um? Was that supposed to drive home the point that her parents were right and she never should have trusted an evil man? Sadly, he turns out to be an evil douchebag villain. She ends up sneaking out of the house to hang out with him, and then (OMG!) she lets him drive her to school! She can't go out and walk around (in broad daylight) with a guy she likes, because.What? WTF is going to happen if they go rent a movie at the corner store? Swear to god, I feel so damn bad for this kid! Her Pakistani background is supposed to help non white characters get some page time, and that's actually pretty fantastic.īut, holy hell! This representation of a Muslim family is sort of.depressing. Kamala is still a starry-eyed heroine, and I like that she's a genuinely nice girl, but.
