The Marvels

Mashing together heroes from the MCU with tenuous connections, The Marvels teams up Carol Danvers (Brie Larson), Kamala Khan (Iman Vellani), and Monica Rambeau (Teyonah Parris) whose powers become linked leading to the trio swapping places across the universe and forcing them to come together and work as a team to stop a crazy Kree (Zawe Ashton) with a hammer and the other half of Ms. Marvel’s gauntlets causing trouble across the universe while attempting to simultaneously heal the Kree homeworld and get revenge against Carol Danvers.

Spidey Super Stories #39

/ / Comics

Flashback Friday takes us back to another issue of Spidey Super Stories. Although Thanos is on the cover, and plays a large role in one of the stories of issue #39, the more common thread is the obvious attempt to include women in the issue. The opening story involves a women’s rights march that is interrupted by Mastermind who uses sleep toxin in soda to put the marchers to sleep. The adventure features Ms. Marvel fighting alongside Spider-Man while Mary Jane works to rouse the crowd.

Ms. Marvel & Moon Knight #1

/ / Comics

Continuing the story of someone sending out highly adaptable swarms of ratbots which began in Ms. Marvel & Wolverine #1, Ms. Marvel‘s search for answers takes her to the Midnight Mission to enlist the help of Moon Knight. Despite the bizarre naming and numbering of a series of separate team-ups which are connected, the odd pairing of Ms. Marvel and Moon Knight against a creepy threat works well. We even get Hunter’s Moon thrown in as a bonus.

  • wiki: link

Aside from a SHAZAM!-ish montage of Kamala Khan (Iman Vellani) testing out her powers and the mixed results of a late save attempt, the second episode of Ms. Marvel continues to keep the focus on , her friends, and her family. Kamala convinces Nakia (Yasmeen Fletcher) to run for an election at the temple and, in her attempt to earn the vote of Kamal’s father (Mohan Kapur) we discover why you don’t want to get on her bad side. We get a potential love interest with a new boy at school (Rish Shah), although there are plenty of hints throughout there is more to him than what he seems which will confirmed in the cliffhanger ending as he saves Kamala from the creepy government agency who attacks her for daring to attempt to save a young boy in trouble (did Captain America have to put up with this?).
