Marvel
After the explosive conclusion of last month’s issue, Kamala is left with the fallout, and, more importantly, where she goes from here. Wilson’s script is very tense and wonderfully dramatic, except when it’s getting upstaged by comedy bits. Ms. Marvel’s always been a pretty humorous book, but generally that humor has been used to enhance it’s more dramatic tendencies. Here, several gags throw off what would otherwise be a stellar outing. Great art continues to be great. CW2 has really ramped up the stakes for Ms. Marvel, mostly in a good way. Now, all that’s left is to see if they stick the landing.
