Ms. Marvel (2014-2015) #7

Ms. Marvel (2014) (Single Issues)

by G. Willow Wilson, Jake Wyatt (Illustrator), Jacob Wyatt (Artist)

Kamala may be fan-girling out when her favorite, (okay maybe Top Five), super hero shows up for some help, but that won't stop her from protecting her hometown. Who is the Inventor, and what does he want with Kamala and all her friends? Maybe Wolverine can be of some help.

Everyone is hyping how the main character is a Muslim, Pakistani girl (which is great!), but what I find even more fascinating is that we get a down-to-earth plain person to be a super hero.

Not this



but this









the Muslim-Pakistani girl is just a big bonus :D

Let it be known that even after being told she wrote fanfiction about him and published it on the internet, that Wolverine stans Kamala so much that he gets his friends to fall in love with her by only showing them a picture of her eating a gyro. Hopefully Kamala won't die of joy once she finds out!

Look at that great Jamie McKelvie cover of Kamala taking a selfie with Wolverine - how adorable and fangirlish!

The second half of Kamala’s first superhero team-up with the legendary Wolverine sees the pair fight a giant crocodile in the New Jersey sewers before dodging traps set by the evil Inventor.

What I like about this team-up though is that it’s between a complete newb and one of the most experienced superheroes in the Marvel U, and yet it’s Kamala who’s doing all of the heavy lifting - she’s saving Logan, fighting the bad guys, and saving the day pretty much all by herself!

I was worried G Willow Wilson might lean too heavily on Wolverine as a crutch for Kamala to get herself out of scrapes (even in his weakened state) and this would turn out to be another Wolverine story, but he’s a background character at most, and, in a Ms Marvel comic, it’s all about Ms Marvel, which is exactly as it should be!

What makes this series of Ms Marvel so delightful is Kamala Khan herself and she continues to have these lovely moments dotted throughout the comic that make me love her all the more. She’s still learning to be a superhero so her quips are weak (to the giant crocodile: “Get - back - you giant - lizard!”), while after the fight she’s upset that she had to hurt the antagonist, and then when she and Wolverine are nearly in the clear, she does a little dance of happiness!

Logan has some great moments too. Arguably, the guy’s at his best when he’s teamed up with a teenage girl, a la Kitty Pryde or Jubilee, and he’s really great with Kamala. He spends this comic (and the last) passing on his years of wisdom, helping her understand what she has to do to be the superhero she needs to be, while pushing her past her limits to new levels of bravery. I think it’s tough finding really good solo Wolverine comics but to find the really great Wolverine books, look no further than the ones with female co-stars to see the guy in his element.

The second Ms Marvel arc sees Wilson nudging Kamala into the wider Marvel Universe. The Wolverine team-up was the first step, and now... no, I won’t ruin the final page surprise, but it’s perfect!

Holler with me: Ms Marvel #7 is awesome!

This series just keeps getting better and better. Wilson's writing is laugh-out-loud funny, and solid every issue.

[Lizzie]

Wolverine!! So she's an inhuman? I should google it. But dont want any spoilers, and this new heroine is really fun and enjoyable!

[Andrómeda]

Kamala tiene 16 años así que es un personaje gracioso y espontaneo, me gusta.

[bia]

[Natilin Alpaca Saurio]

Soy Imparcial en lo que respecta a Wolverine, perdón. Mea culpa. Pero es que, te imaginas poder llevar a caballito a Logan?! (Chilla como colegiala Aún más enamorada) nah nah nah, y encima que le caigas bien y te felicite, nah, demasiado. Basta, ah, me muero. 😭💖💞💖😭💖😭💖😭

(Quien era la pelirroja del perro?)

[Val Sarmiento]

Con que salga el Cap y Logan yo feliz.

[Halls]

I really really dig the idea of surly Wolverine as Kamala’s mentor. Gyros all around!

[Alice]

I love the new Inhuman entrances, also Wolverine and Kamala's bonding is amazing.
The action and side dialogues are so good I can't even complain about missing regular non-Ms-Marvel life and Bruno.

[Samah (samahcanread_)]

the moment i saw the selfie, i just fell in love!

[Sara (A Gingerly Review)]

Speed reading my way through this series

[Ralph Wark]

Love the new ms. Marvel

And this is ridiculously short, barely have time to get a plot in. Gotta keep to the collections. Just the start of something here....

[Holliferous]

I want to give this one ALL THE STARS. I laughed out loud like 10 times and reread it over and over. Bestttt

[Ezzati Manan]

Wolverine AND Ms. Marvel? I'm fangirling as hard as Kamala :,)

[Magali]

Adding Wolverine to the mix is always a good idea !

[Aksa]

Wolverine owes Ms Marvel a Gyro

[Cruzzie]

Is fantastic in ms marvel adventures together with his friends.

[Wetdryvac Wetdryvac]

Solid storytelling, excellent art, and a lovely balance of characters.

[Anya]

wolverine and ms marvel are such a father and daughter duo i love them

[Lois]

Humorous chapter!

[Catalina]

part 2 of Kamala and Wolverine fighting giant crocs in the sewer only to discover where the inventor has been hiding all the missing kids.
We also got Lockjaw making an appearance!

[Jelke Lenaerts]

This one was more crime fighting and getting to know the antagonist of the story. I still had a fun time reading it but I feel like we didn’t get as many character moments in this one and I love Kamala a lot and I love learning more about her, seeing her develop and/or getting to see more of her surroundings. Those are my favourite parts of this series so far and that was bit lacking in this issue. However, I love the dynamic between Kamala and Wolverine and that ending made me very curious for what’s the come.

Introducing: the Amazing Box with Legs Man, also known as Thigh Gap Extraordinaire Man, also known as Wolverine.
I really like this series. I like the characters, the story and the different view it gives (because of how Kamala is not a 'standard' type for a superhero). But I'm not very excited to read on. I feel like the art style really took a dive during the 6th and 7th issue and the plot is starting to loose my interest.
I do recommend it because it really is good... I'm just loosing interest because it seems like the artist/writer is doing the same.

[J.R. Koop]

Oh my gods. Kamala fan-girling over her superhero mentor is what gives me life in this issue. It's not only the fact that she admits to writing a fan-fiction about him, but also that they bond so well, they grab a bite to eat after the fighting is done! Head over heels for each other as a team. This is only amplified by the super creepy feeling you get when you find out what the villain is actually up to!
