Ms. Marvel follows Kamala Khan, a Muslim girl from Jersey City who is suddenly empowered with extraordinary gifts. When a strange mist descends and morphs Kamala into a shape-shifting superhuman… fitting in is the least of her problems.screen-shot-2016-09-30-at-12-48-44Ms. Marvel also features religion, which, thank you. I love seeing positive portrayals of any religion. And the honest exploration of accepting and loving oneself made my heart sing.ms-marvel-10-bookspoilsThis story is a definite win for me.
