• Marvel's breakout hit, Ms. Marvel, continues as Kamala Khan discovers the dangers of her newfound powers.
• And unlocks a secret behind them as well.
• Don't miss the boldest (and adorable-est!) hero to make her Marvel debut!
This is why Kamala Khan is the most endearing character in the Marvel stable right now, if not on the shelves period. Yes, shes a woman, and shes Muslim, and shes Pakistani. Yes, she appeals to demographics that have been historically left behind by mainstream cape books, but she also appeals to every awkward teenager, every fan, and every outsider who takes comfort in their pop culture of choice. But it's not just about pop culture, comic books and video games. When he first arrived on the scene, and for many decades to come, Peter Parkerwas Marvel'sstand-in for young and disenfranchised readers, looking for a voice amid the endless examples of seemingly perfect, put-together adult heroes. Other heroes have filled this role as well, some more successfully than others, and now it appears to be Kamalas turn, growing pains and all. And Im eager to see where this journey takes her.

In any case, this issue is great. It deals with Kamala's want to help people, but doesn't shy away from the fact that she (despite her super powers) isn't really all that equipped to do it. So when she goes in to try and save Vic (her shooter from last issue), things don't turn out so well" Read Full Review
If you're looking for a solo title that emphasizes original characters rather than elaborate events, this is an outstanding issue of Wilson's engaging, well-paced story. Read Full Review
With things heading towards some sort of a showdown now, I'm even more excited than before. This issue was really good! Read Full Review
I hope more people will discover this book and realize it's not a "book for girls" or a "book for Muslim teens" or any other neat little box I've seen other reviewers try and put its audience in. It's a book for people who want to read a touching, funny, human story about growing up and finding yourself, that just happens to involve some superpowers and a little Pakistani culture. And we're lucky to have it. Read Full Review
Ms. Marvel is a great comic, and four issues in, it has not let me down yet. It's one of the best introductions I've ever read for a new, young superhero. I'm a little wary of an upcoming Wolverine guest appearance, but I suppose this is the world we live in. I hope for the best for Kamala Khan, and I hope this series gets to live for a long, long time. Everybody who loves comics should be reading Ms. Marvel. Read Full Review
The art is flawless, it's the exact kind of art that attracts readers " clean pages and faces full of expression. I want to give it a ten out of ten, but it's still too early to get overly excited for the series, so I'll give it a nine. Read Full Review
G. Willow Wilson continues to craft a funny, heartwarming, and authentic superhero tale with Kamala Kahn. Read Full Review
The journey of Kamala Khan becoming Ms. Marvel takes another important step in Ms. Marvel #4. She goes from just struggling to understand what she's becoming to actually forging a superhero identity. She still has a long ways to go. Being Rookie of the Year doesn't immediately make an athlete into a Hall of Famer, but it's a good start. Fighting killer robots is basically Superheroing 101 and for now, Kamala Khan has more than earned a passing grade. It remains to be seen whether she'll be able to handle the advanced courses, but she has already created a sizable fanbase that will be rooting for her. Read Full Review
Overall Ms. Marvel #4 is a delightful addition to this young series. G. Willow Wilson and Adrian Alphona make for a perfect team. They are creating a character that will live on for years to come because she'll be an inspiration for any young girl. Read Full Review
I've been rather evangelical about this new Ms Marvel series, and I will continue to be so. Each issue continues Kamala Khan's journey to hero with subtlety and charm. There is something irresistible about her humanity and now that she is starting to find her way, I feel confident her adventures will continue to intrigue. Read Full Review
This is an adventure for the young and old to share, and while Kamala is learning the ropes, it seems, so are we. Read Full Review
Although I love my fair share of "grim and gritty" superhero comics, Wilson and Alphona continue to demonstrate with Ms. Marvel #4 that these costumed characters can also be upbeat, joyful and fun. Once again, don't miss this issue. Read Full Review
Ms Marvel is good. Read it. Read Full Review
With this issue, Ms. Marvel finally has the arc that can make her a superhero, with a costume and a mission, and the brief conversation about how she needs to be a superhero as herself rather than as another generic blonde woman is important to where this comic seems to be going. I like the interaction between Bruno and Kamala, with its undertones of maybe-romance, and I like the fact that she's trying to exist under the rules of her parents and her church rather than being an overtly rebellious jerkface teen. In short, Ms. Marvel #4 is another fun one from Wilson and Alphona, a book that is quirky and meaningful all at once, with some of the best character pieces in comics and the shouldn't-be-as-rare-as-it-is central female person of color protagonist combining to earn 4 out of 5 stars overall. Ms. Marvel's adventures are shaping up into something we don't have nearly enough of in comics, and I recommend this title strongly for traditionalists and new-school fans alike. Read Full Review
Four issues in, and "Ms. Marvel" shows no signs of letting up. It's the definition of a well-constructed comic book with the perfect creative team, one with not only incredible talent, but an obvious passion for their subject material. If you're not reading it, you're making a mistake. Read Full Review
Ms. Marvel #4 is a good, but still rather slow issue of the series. The writing and artwork are appealing like usual, but the story really needs to pick up the pace, especially with the end in sight. Here's opening it can with the next issue. Read Full Review
Ms. Marvel moves right along in exploring the introduction of Kamala and her understanding of her abilities and also her desire to be like those she idolizes by being a hero. This issue has its weak points for me, but I like overall the kind of silliness and banter that comes from different parts of it. Kamala's view of herself and her powers is really neat to watch unfold since she's both scared and delighted and has that kind of child-like innocence about her in grasping its real meaning. This is also well balanced by the family time that we get, which is really good to see even if it's not the most pleasant of things considering what both mother and daughter are dealing with. But in the end, watching Kamala come into her own as a hero and to adhere to the old adage is definitely a great thing. Read Full Review
Simply put this series has quickly turned into one of the best comics out there. Very intriguing characters and personalities supported by some very good art and in this issue we're finally getting a glimpse of the first real villain arc that will challenge Kamala. Can't wait for the next issue.
“It’s time to break out the geek fu.”
Four issues in, I can frankly say that "Ms. Marvel" is the most overrated series of, like, the decade. Kamala Khan is supposed to be Marvel's "adorable-est" character, but on the contrary I hate her more every month. Her fake nerdy attitude just kills me and her random actions (like practically telling your mum you are sneaking out of the house) make her a dumb girl to my eyes. Her second-best friend is even more irritating, complaining about her not telling him her secret (have you never read a superhero story? They kinda do that) and trying to be the funny guy while he is definitely not. Willow Wilson probably thinks she's a great comedy writer, but she's most definitely not. Now I wanna see how this any-guy, the Inventor, a thug with lasmore
