• Traipsing across an unfamiliar planet with a gorgeous alien prince is fun...but doing that with your disapproving parents in tow? Significantly less fun.
• Can Kamala balance family and romance? Or is this strange new relationship dead on arrival?
Rated T+
With a great new side character in the mix, Magnificent Ms. Marvel is only getting better. Read Full Review
Watching Kamala mature from a Captain Marvel fangirl into an increasingly confident superhero in her own right has been an incredible journey to follow, and so far this series is continuing that growth. Focusing on this character development has made the action more spread out, but this issue feels like its the end of the exposition. Like all of the pieces have been moved into place and now its time for the action to begin. Read Full Review
Kamala's Big Space Adventure develops along predictable lines, but the presence of her parents and her own whip-smart narration provide the distinctiveness this part of the plot lacks. The art has an easier time of it, once again carving out a unique setting and sharing plenty of exciting action. The script accomplishes a tricky goal. It builds anticipation for a finale that seems poised to both fulfill and defy expectations. Read Full Review
'The Magnificent Ms. Marvel #4' is a character-driven otherworldly story that delves into the complexities of finding and expressing our own individuality. Fans of Ms. Marvel will undoubtedly find a lot to enjoy here. Read Full Review
This feels like a comic written for and by fifth-graders. As if some young fan-fiction writer plopped their Mary Sue hero into their own beginner attempt at world-building a Star Wars. Read Full Review
Kamala falls deeply in love with Cheb Hura's plucky revolution, though not so much with the man himself. She fights in a battle between oppressors and rebels which takes a last-minute swerve. Decent art and some thoughtful Kamala narration give this comic the distinction and enjoyability that its somewhat by-the-numbers plot doesn't deliver on its own.
"Bruno I... Need to gome home."
I'm far more interested in the flashback story than the current story.
I think I might not be enjoying Kamala's adventures anymore. Maybe it's the new direction by Ahmed. This is just too predictable and almost dull in some parts. I might have to drop this book after reading it since day one.
Fine but not special.
