CHANGE THE WORLD!
THE KAMALA CON!
The Champions are playing dirty to beat Roxxon at their own game - including implanting two of their own as interns to take down the corporation from within. But in order to earn the trust of their cutthroat Roxxon supervisors, they'll have to deliver an unwilling spokesperson: Kamala Khan.
Will Ms. Marvel agree to become the face of a company and a law that she hates, or is it too high a price to pay for victory?
Rated T+
Champions #7 is an outstanding superhero comic. There is more character development and theme exploration within this one issue than there are in whole volumes within other comics. Lore has captured the voices of the heroes very quickly and is telling a powerful and impactful story. The themes of social media and its effect on society are more important now than ever, and it is laid out through intelligent methods and ingenious storytelling. The art is sublime and covers the comic with brightness and energy. Read Full Review
Champions continues to deliver a vibrant and emotional character-driven story that perfectly finds its teenage voice while turning an eye towards hard to solve issues that plague both fictional and real worlds. Comic series like this truly showcase that teenage-focused titles can not only thrive but have a well-deserved place within the publishing realm. Read Full Review
Champions #7 leans into the humanity and the youth of the characters, bringing the concept of the team to the surface without losing any of the fun of the action. Read Full Review
The stakes are high and the plotting is tight, but the real star is Vecchio's art, and maybe Sam "Nova" Alexander. Read Full Review
While Champions is still trying to find its footing following the end of its own version of "Civil War", the story of Miles and Sam attempting to join Roxxon as interns in order to bring it down from the inside is a solid one. Read Full Review
The Champions get one team member undercover at Roxxon -- will Sam go too far in trying to become the 2nd mole? The team also foils a Roxxon-staged bit of protest violence, which (maybe?) fulfills the issue's action quota. I love the art. It has a unique, confident style and it's got oodles of polish. On the script side, I love what the author is doing, but maybe they could do it with not quite so many words? The characters still come through strong and lovable, at least.
" Why not Kamala Khan ? They'd love to have you at their side."

I like that this run remembers that they're teens and let's them do teen things. It's refreshing and is fun to read. It's also handling the characterizations & interactions very well.
The story isn't working for me though. Too heavy-handed in what it represents & not interesting enough with how blatantly evil they are.
Still building...
This was fine, but maybe a little too much.
Fine! I don’t really care about this comic, sorry teens.
