A really solid, standard Ms. Marvel issue (and I definitely mean that as a compliment)! While I'm starting to brace myself as I have a feeling I really am not going to like who the new villain is when they are finally unmasked, I am rather pleased with how this story is going so far. Definitely check it out!

I think this just became my main X-book. Great issue!

I WANT TO LIKE THIS BOOK SO BAD. Why do you do this to me, Marvel? You give me amazing runs on characters I don't necessarily care about, and when I'm dying for an America book, we get...this. This isn't the America I fell in love with in Young Avengers and Ultimates...😔

I just... Ugh.

I really, REALLY want to like "America," but it tries waaaaaay too hard. The story is all over the place and can't find the proper balance between lighthearted fun and emotional resonance. There's so much happening all at once yet I just can't make myself care.

First of all, why is Storm there? Why is she suddenly best buddies with America? Why must America travel to the past and meet Storm in order to resolve her relationship with the girlfriend who dumped her? What was that cringefest of a subplot with Storm's safe word?!

Second offender: trying so damn hard to connect America to Latino culture. We're basically told that even though she's an alien from a parallel universe, she's totes Latina, and not just, like, Puerto Rican, but all Latin countries at once, guys, and here's some name-dropping of Puerto Rican and Colombian cultural elements to make it sounds legit.

So yeah. Love what they're trying to do with the character in this series, but the writing's just not up to snuff. No me gusta. more

I really want to like this, so I picked up the second issue... but honestly it is hard to deal with this writing (not that the art is that great anyway). This had great potential to showcase a Latina-American superhero but not as some cliche whiny stereotypical child. Weak lines like "Not today, Basura", "caramba" and "ay Dios mio, Selena help us"... just made me cringe. I hope that one day we will get a good team to make an America Chavez book that is fun, real, modern and diverse alike Ms.Marvel's Kamala Khan. more

David Gabriel is a moron for saying Diversity is at fault for the Marvel Sales slump; that's not the case, that has never been the case -- I blame bad writing and events, and this comic is a perfect example of bad writing.



Do you want to buy a comic that is basically 22 pages of "How do you do, fellow kids" and "YASSS QUEEEN"? Then this comic is perfect for you -- it's also perfect if you want to torture your brain cells -- because I'm sure some people get their kicks like that



But really, this saddens me. I like MAC, she was pretty badass in Young Avengers and is a total badass that stood up to Captain Marvel in Ultimates during the CWII event -- but this comic? This comic is terrible if you're a fan of MAC, unless you want anything MAC related, no matter how bad it is, then... I guess, have at it? Whatever makes you happy, I guess.

My favorite issue so far.

This book is finding its groove. It's got some silly dialogue sometimes, but I'm definitely onboard.

Definitely enjoyed this and coming back for issue 2.

I was a big fan of both of these series growing up, so I'm looking forward to this take on these characters. Definitely an interesting setup, I'll be picking up #2.

So glad this book is back!

Great 1st issue, I'll definitely be back for #2!

Beautiful art in what is mostly a recap of Kate's history. That last page though...wtf?! Interested to see where this goes.

Excited to see more of this Alternate Earth. I'm hoping that was Aisha at the end!

How did we get to Black Science being a superhero book?! Haha this issue was great. Everything's ramping up, can't wait to see what happens next!
