The Magnificent Ms. Marvel #1

Writer: Saladin Ahmed

Kamala Khan has become one of Marvel Comics new superstars and she has received her brand new comic, The Magnificent Ms. Marvel.

Writer Saladin Ahmed takes over for G. Willow Wilson, who had written Ms. Marvel from her beginning.  While it is a new voice, the series maintained the special trait that made it different than other Marvel series.  The Muslim background of Kamala Khan is still a major part of the series as is the relationships of Kamala and her family and friends.  A major reveal takes place here and it will shape the series for the foreseeable future.

The Magnificent Ms. Marvel #1 is a perfect jumping on point if you are interested in  Kamala Khan.  The issue had a fresh feel to it and it did not feel weighed down with the baggage of years of issues.  However, the character of Kamala Khan still feels like one of the most original characters in the Marvel Universe.
