[Mitchell Friedman · Rating 4 out of 5]

Another set of reprints, most of which I've seen before. Or at least seen the bits just before these stories. The art and story on Black Widow was especially good. And She-Hulk was a good followup. Ms. Marvel was one of the earlier ones, but is always readable. Thor was less annoying then usual - the writing didn't rely on thee and thou and actually had worthwhile dialogue. And Squirrel Girl was at least short - though the bits with her roommate weren't bad. All in all a fun intro or reminder into these characters. Oh Captain Marvel in space wasn't horrible either.

So many great series all together - what's not to love? I appreciate that they seem to be sticking with the same series through their story arcs - I know the concept is to switch them out, but waiting for arcs to be completed is greatly appreciated.

So: this is volume 4, reprinting issues #4 of these female Marvel superheroes. The stories are excellent. Just pointing out: these are installments.
That said, great stuff.
Each has a different tone, a different range, and a different graphic storytelling style.
Recommended.
