Do I even need to say anything?

Horrible art, cruddy villain, and a "shock death" (of someone who'll be back with MCU synergy because that's all Marvel editorial cares about now) that spits in the face of every reader. Ridiculous how all the recent Spider-media has been stellar EXCEPT THE COMICS.

I've read the entire Ms. Marvel run by G. Willow Wilson and Saladin Ahmed, and started working my way through Champions, and was really disappointed that this is how/where they decided to kill off Ms. Marvel. They chose a villain I've never heard of and didn't do it in her own book. I would have been okay with her dying as part of a much larger crossover event (like AXE Judgment Day).

I was also disappointed with the artwork of how Kamala looked on the first page.
Overall, this loyal Ms. Marvel reader thinks it was a swing and miss on something so important. Maybe the Fallen Friend book will give Kamala Kahn the respect she deserves.

Kamala deserved so much better.

Ainda bem que não comprei a versão física disso, misericórdia que gibi ruim.

A ideia de um universo paralelo com a MJ com outra família é bizarra, os desenhos do Romitinha aqui estão criminosos, o vilão é péssimo e até o fan service que deveria ser legal, envolvendo a participação da Miss Marvel e do quarteto é bem qualquer coisa.

Além disso, eu quis ler essa edição do Miranha por conta da Miss Marvel, mas o acontecimento com ela é tão sem emoção e sem sentido, considerando ser uma revista do Homem Aranha.

This comic is bad and deserved all the shit it got.

Booooo! 👎

Spider-Man was a dick. Mary Jane was furious. Reed was Reed. Ms. Marvel was the best hero of the bunch and her sacrifice helped save the world. The only reason to kill her is to bring her back but did you have to do it like that?

Zeb Wells FRIDGES a Pakistani-Muslim teenager by having her impersonate an adult white woman - even though Kamala swore she would never shapeshift again, especially into a white woman, because she realized she was giving into internalized racism - then stand around like a lamppost so she can be stabbed in the back and the audience watch her death throes just to psych out the audience so they think Mary Jane Watson had actually been killed.

There is so much wrong - not just wrong, but problematic - not just problematic but downright anti-social and meanspirited, in a a very bad way - with the above paragraph. It's twisted, and not in a good way, but in the way that a fratbro carelessly dumping a can of fish food into the aquarium of the woman he slept with only to win a dogfight contest because he thought it was funny watching the fish overgorge themselves since he knew he would never see the woman again is twisted. It's thoughtless and misogynist and reeks of the casual cruelty conferred by privilege - as long as Zebbie got his personal teeny rocks off, what does it matter what damage is caused or that he sends a nasty message or that anything resembling storytelling or coherent characterization? Who the fuck cares that Kamala means a lot to her fans - MJ means a lot to her fans, too, but we already knew the character was a victim of Zeb's overt misogyny so they weren't expecting much? Not little Zebbie, that's for sure. No, Zebbie wrote this for himself, as he's said over and over again, and since Zeb has the story sense of a decaying coackroach husk the audience just has to deal with this utterly vacuous and stupid story that makes no sense, just so Zebbie could have his jumpcut scare of "Ha ha you thought MJ was dead but I killed Kamala! Heehee hoohoo haw haw I am just the cleverest" when in actuality he's just another braindead frat bro, publicly defecating just because he can.

Well, I finally caught up to this issue. I knew what happened, so the emotional weight didn't really hit me, but the issue itself was pretty intense, regardless. I like John Romita Jr.'s pencils, personally. They're unique and recognizable, and they make this book stand out. Ms. Marvel seems like a neat character, and I know she comes back pretty soon in Marvel lore, so I really don't feel the weight of her "death" in this one. I also don't think I ever would have believed they'd kill off Mary Jane without some massive advertising campaign, or I would have heard about fans mutinying from the title. Overall, not bad, but not great.

[Théos Grillot · Rating 2 out of 5]

So first they decide to kill her in Spidey's series and then they have a villain that no one has heard of. But the worst is that her death is off-panel. Are you killing one of the most important+beloved comic book characters in the last decade off-panel? This was a mistake.

The only good thing to come out of this is to see more of Kamala's interaction with mutants once she is reborn.

[Alyce Caswell · Rating 1 out of 5]

I knew I wouldn't like this and yet I read it anyway. I suppose it's easier to get through it when you know how things pan out. Even without that foreknowledge, it's such an obvious outcome...but what else can you expect from Marvel? Perhaps I've been spoiled by better fare outside the main two IPs.

Kamala Khan is a wonderful character who did not deserve to be sidelined like this.

[Rakib Khan · Rating 1 out of 5]

Only one thing to say, if Marvel needs to kill Kamala due to marketing reasons, they should at least give her the respect she deserves by killing her on her own book. Not on someone else's ongoing series as a sideshow, especially when the series is as poor in execution as this.

[Logan · Rating 5 out of 5]

Definitely one of the best issue so far. More went down in this issue than any other so far. Art work and story were all on point. Its got Spidey, Fantastic Four, Ms. Marvel, Obsorn, and the big one lately Rabin.

Perfection.

A sad issue. Came unexpectedly.

[Danielle Robertson Robertson · Rating 3 out of 5]

Well that was unexpected. The ending seemed a little forced and a little too small for such a prominent Marvel character.

3.5

[Giulio Basilisco · Rating 1 out of 5]

The most stupid thing that Marvel comics has done in a long time.

[Rafael Alexandre · Rating 1 out of 5]
