I saw an article on Bounding into Comics about the upcoming Ms Marvel (Kamala Khan) series casting its main character. Marvel/Disney said they wanted to be true to the character. I laughed so hard when I read that. Maybe going forward they will care about “staying true” to the character.
I’ve been collecting comic books since I was 10 (now 30). A few years ago I was at a local comic con and one vendor was selling comic book mystery bags for 5 bucks. I got the Ms Marvel #1. Kinda boring to me but it’s been going up in price. Maybe I’ll sell it once it goes up more.
Ms Marvel / Kamala Khan looks fucking dumb with her big hands power. Every other thing about her is irrelevant to me.
Can’t remember where I read it, but the anti-popularity of Ms. Marvel says a lot about both men and women. While both men and women clearly enjoy powerful female heroes, neither demo seems interested in ugly or grotesque female heroes. And gigantic disproportionate rubber fists are definitely grotesque.
Cant imagine how that's going to look with CGI. I don't see how it could be done in a good way.
