Ms. Marvel, Vol. 1: No Normal by G. Willow Wilson

5.0

just all around delightful. the conceit that the new ms marvel is a pakistani teenager from jersey city isn't played for shtick, but isn't window dressing either. the art from alphona is probably the standout here but the whole undertaking is sparkling. i am not a comics maniac so i dont know how slash if this is in conversation with canon or whatever else, but there is a quiet shoutout to bill & ted's excellent adventure ("strange things are afoot at the circle q"), which i approve. this strikes me as a really good series for an actual pre-teen or early teen to read and get into. because it's *not* about somber beefcake men doing hamlet with more punching but also because it *is* still compelling and legitimately surprising fun comic storytelling.
