2.5 A few new ideas on how her powers work and some fun dialogue by guest authors (including Rainbow Rowell & Hasan Minhaj!) but felt mostly like filler.
The conclusion of this run of Ms Marvel is another great piece of writing, although perhaps rather ‘bitty', with a number of random comedic short stories thrown in together at the end. For the bulk of this collection, though, we have the usual mix of superheroics and a teenager trying to live her regular life. (That she's also a Moslem superhero is now something that's so settled in that it's just part of the background). There's some good fun from the supporting cast, with fun characterisation of the main villain in amongst the craziness. It's both down-to-earth and uplifting, a positive view of the trials of everyday life even as Ms Marvel herself is sometimes depressed by it. This run is going to be missed.
StoryIt's an end of an era. I haven't really read super hero comics with any regularity since I was in high school. The main draw for me on this was G. Willow Wilson. What kept me coming back was Kamala though. Her nerdy traits and the way she interacting with other super heroes were things that I see in myself. In some ways this volume was a nice ending to Ms. Wilson's run, but in other ways I was disappointed. Not a lot happens, but the things that did were pretty significant. I'm not sure what exactly I was expecting, but maybe a bigger send off than what we got.I'm going to miss Ms. Wilson's writing. I may give her wonder woman a shot, or maybe I'll give [a:Saladin Ahmed 4025591 Saladin Ahmed https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1325700680p2/4025591.jpg]'s run a shot. I haven't decided yet.ArtworkI'm not sure who did the art, it's change a few times over Ms. Wilson's run but it's stayed pretty true to the original artist's stuff, which I appreciate since I liked that so much.

ugh this series is just so good!! I'm so glad Kamala had her ~coming out party~, I love her friendships. IDK what to think about the investigation into how her powers actually work (real talk: i don't care how they work) but it does seem like it'll prob open up some interesting possibilities and not just because she's working with Bruno!
