Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Ms. Marvel is an ongoing monthly title published by Marvel Comics, which launched in February 2014. It was originally written by G. Willow Wilson, with rotating art by Adrian Alphona (Runaways) and Takeshi Miyazawa. In 2019, Saladin Ahmed took over as the new writer and retitled it The Magnificent Ms. Marvel.Kamala Khan is a nerdy teenage girl from a Pakistani-American family of Muslim faith living in Jersey City — not New York City, unlike most of the heroes who populate the Marvel Universe.After being exposed to Terrigen Mist, Kamala discovers she has Inhuman DNA and her latent shapeshifting power becomes apparent. Inspired by her heroine Carol Danvers, who had recently abandoned the Ms. Marvel title to become Captain Marvel, Kamala decides to use her newfound abilities to protect her home and those in need.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Following an initial run of nineteen issues, this title was put on hold for Secret Wars, concluding with a four-issue story arc that saw Kamala meet her idol and namesake, Captain Marvel. Ms. Marvel returned with a new volume in the All-New, All-Different Marvel universe that emerged from Secret Wars — and she even joined the (All-New, All-Different) Avengers!Kamala is notable for being one of the most prominent (and heroic) Muslim characters in popular culture; she was co-created by Wilson (a Muslim convert herself) and Marvel editor Sana Amanat — a Pakistani-American Muslim woman not unlike Kamala — who currently serves as their Director of Content & Character Development.This title is the only Marvel comic that exceeds its physical sales digitally, likely because its fanbase skews young and female — a demographic not likely to buy monthly physical issues in a comic shop. (That we know of, anyway — publishers do not release their digital sales numbers to the public, but it's an open secret that Ms. Marvel is a digital juggernaut.)Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })Kamala's presence outside of comics has been steadily growing since her introduction. She appears in a variety of Marvel's mobile games, and she appears in LEGO Marvel's Avengers as an unlockable character. She also guest stars in the third season of Disney XD's Avengers, Assemble! and joins the team in season 4, and also stars in Marvel Rising: Secret Warriors. And in the future, she will join the Marvel Cinematic Universe in her own Disney+ live-action series. | |

Secret Identity | |
Ms. Marvel (2014) / Comicbook / int_112890b3 | comment |
Secret Identity: Kamala is very protective of her identity, and early on, she freaks out that if anyone besides Bruno learns the truth, they'll "sell [her] to science". When in-costume, she only identifies herself as Kamala when talking to an adult superhero she trusts, such as Wolverine, Medusa, Carol Danvers, and Iron Man. As a member of the All-New, All-Different Avengers, she takes great pride in teasing both Miles and Sam, the two other members of the team her own age, because they both revealed their real names to her while she has kept hers secret from them. When Miles (in his own book) suggests that since he trusted her with his identity, she should do the same, Kamala tells him that just means she's smarter than him. Nowadays, all three of them know each others' secret identities (Miles worldlessly figures it out in Ms. Marvel #7, and Kamala reveals herself to Sam as part of a "I Know You're in There Somewhere" Fight when he fell under Blackheart's Hate Plague spell in Champions #9. | |

The Sociopath | |
Ms. Marvel (2014) / Comicbook / int_19851b86 | comment |
Aamir's parents are hesitant when he announces his intention to marry Tyesha, his black girlfriend, as they'd prefer he marry a nice Pakistani girl. Their opinion is swayed when Tyesha demonstrates knowledge of traditional Pakistani Muslim traditions, such as the bride living with the family until the husband can afford to buy an apartment. Aamir also helps his case when he points out that they set Kamala up with a Pakistani boy in the past, and that being from the same ethnic background didn't preclude the boy in question from being a complete asshole. Tyesha's parents are also hesitant, since they're Christians (Tyesha converted in college), but they are swayed when Yusuf gives a heartfelt speech about treating Tyesha like a daughter. | |

Most Fanfic Writers Are Girls: Kamala is an avid fanfic writer and reader. The trope is subverted in All-New All-Different Avengers Annual, however; not only is the author of a fanfic shipping Ms. Marvel with her friends, Miles Morales Spider-Man and Sam Alexander Nova, actually Miles himself but the admin Kamala contacts about it is Phil Coulson. | |

Reality Ensues: In #31 , vol. 2 (which is #50 if you count from the beginning of the book's run),Kamala reveals to her friends at her sleepover that she is Ms. Marvel. Their response is that they've known for a long time, and point out that Kamala isn't that good at hiding her secret identity. They just didn't want to tell her until they thought she was ready to talk about it And then in issue 1 (Legacy #58) of Magnificent Ms Marvel, her mother finally tells her Dad that Kamala is Ms. Marvel. He's the first person who didn't figure it out on his own, and Kamala had a reason why she didn't tell him - as she expected, he was angry that she was risking her life! | |

Voluntary Shapeshifting | |
Ms. Marvel (2014) / Comicbook / int_1fb440a6 | comment |
Voluntary Shapeshifting: Kamala's primary superpower. She has been shown to be able to change the size and shape of her body, the color of her skin and hair, and even the clothing she's wearing. By issue #2, her shapeshifting can even have different parts of her upper body showing different outfits simultaneouslynote though as that was during her initial panic at finding herself a shapeshifter, it has yet to be seen whether she can do that consciously, and she's revealed in #2 and #3 to have Super Strength when she's "embiggened" herself or even just her handnote in #2 scooping out both Zoe and a noticeable portion of the mudbank from the river in her hand, then in #3 ripping out an entire locker room bench and its supports — and cracking the bench itself in half. Issue #5 expands this even further by having Kamala transform into a store mannequin. By #6, she can transform into completely non-humanoid shapes such as a sofa, or flatten herself to be almost as thin as paper (seen in S.H.I.E.L.D. #2). | |

How Do I Shot Web?: Kamala has a lot of difficulty in understanding her powers. They start off tied to her emotional state (shrinking when she feels small, turning into Carol Danvers when she thinks of Captain Marvel) and she is unable to control them willingly at first. | |

Alpha Bitch: Zoe Zimmer, who specializes in Stealth Insults disguised as questions and concerns about Islam. Kamala initially thinks she is simply ignorant that what she says is hurtful, but later issues make it clear that Zoe is very aware that what she says is harmful. The final issue before the relaunch has her admit that she is mean because she is jealous of the easy friendships Kamala and others have, and she tries to get better. After an eight-month Time Skip, Zoe has joined Kamala's core group of friends. | |

Mistaken Identity: Kamala's first shapeshifting in public wound up looking like Carol Danvers herself, so when she immediately leapt into heroism a lot of bystanders thought she was Captain Marvel, although they were confused as to why she had seemingly gone back to wearing her old costume... much less had a giant hand. As she continues to look like Carol Danvers in later issues, the people she encounters do not seem sure how to address her, backtracking over calling her "Ms." and "Captain". | |

Spiritual Successor | |
Ms. Marvel (2014) / Comicbook / int_27a42ebc | comment |
Spiritual Successor: The series in many ways feels like a modern day take on Spider-Man, being about a nerdy teenager who suddenly gains superpowers, and the problems that come with that; so much so that Spider-Man himself acknowledges it.. Rather than being a science whiz however, Kamala spends her time writing fanfiction and browsing social media. Kamala's role during Civil War II can be comparable with Anya Corazón's during first Civil War. Both are mentored by Carol Danvers, both fight for her side (initially, in Kamala's case), and eventually feel bad when they start questioning themselves whether they fight for justice or not. | |

Ms. Marvel (2014) / Comicbook / int_297b82cf | comment |
Hero's First Rescue: The first person Kamala rescues is a drunk Zoe at the waterfront after an also-drunk Josh accidentally pushes her off the dock. Kamala changes into Carol Danvers and fishes her bully out, saving her life. This starts an urban legend of a young Carol Danvers somehow showing up in Jersey City, and starts Kamala on her path to becoming a hero. | |

Ms. Marvel (2014) / Comicbook / int_2a35374f | comment |
Villainous Gentrification: In Volume 5, Kamala and the residents of New Jersey discover that a local avenue has been massively renovated by a new corporation. She is aghast to find her superhero image being used without permission for the company's billboards, and that her favorite Serbian-Vietnamese grocery store has been replaced by luxury condos. Investigating the operation, Kamala discovers that the rebuilding is planned for the entire city and run by Hope Yards Development and Relocation Association, aka none other than HYDRA. Their next plan? Hypnotizing all the current residents of New Jersey and making them all move out of town. | |

Hero with Bad Publicity: In the first story arc of the re-launch, Ms. Marvel's image was used by the Hope Yards project without her permission while she was too busy getting used to her role as an Avenger to notice. Even after exposing Hope Yard's sinister agenda and putting a stop to it, she's considered a sell-out who had only opposed Hope Yards once it was revealed to be headed by an actual supervillain. This got worse during Civil War 2, though her reputation began to recover afterwards. | |

Early Installment Weirdness: In the aforementioned cameo in Captain Marvel #17, Kamala's powers are depicted more along the lines of Hulking Out rather than shapeshifting or stretching.

Police are Useless: So mercilessly inverted. Not only are they not useless, but outright act as The Cavalry to be called in by our heroes. After they see that they have a teenage superhero in their town they're just glad she is the type who would help fight street-level crime. Kamala actually has a "safe call" system set up with Bruno: if she calls him, lets his phone ring twice, then hangs up, he's to call the cops to wherever she is, because she's in over her head. That said, they do prove useless when professional supervillain Shocker comes into town; their initial attempt to charge him gets them blasted away by his gauntlets, and then he fakes surrender only to blast them a second time. That’s the sort of thing that makes them happy to have a superhero in town. | |

Unexpectedly Real Magic | |
Ms. Marvel (2014) / Comicbook / int_59d599ec | comment |
Unexpectedly Real Magic: Played with and ultimately subverted: When some of Kamala's friends think they need to summon Loki, who they refer to as "hipster Viking dude," they try a ludicrously made-up ritual using hipster iconography. Loki does eventually show up, not because the ritual worked, but because he couldn't stand how silly it all was anymore. He even brought popcorn. | |

Skirt over Slacks: For the first few issues, cover art showed Kamala wearing a "classic" Ms. Marvel outfit, but with pants (and a shirt) underneath the miniskirt, though she hadn't started wearing it in-universe; she eventually did so in issue #5 (it's made from a re-purposed burqini). | |

At least, until the world looks like it's going to end, when he levels with her. Zoe tells Naika that she understands if she can't return her feelings but would like if they could still be friends.

I Want My Beloved to Be Happy: Bruno and Kamala to each other. Bruno accepts that Miss Marvel is a bigger part of her life than he could be at this time. Kamala says that while she loves Bruno, she would understand if he decides to find happiness without her due to her heroics being the only thing she wants to focus on right now. It backfires on her in the relaunch series when Bruno begins dating a new classmate and Kamala realizes she's jealous. | |

Mood Motif | |

Mood Motif: In the first issue, Kamala sees Iron Man, Captain Marvel and Captain America singing the first verse of the traditional qawwali "Sakal bun phool rahi sarson", a song about a joyous trip to the shrine of the Sufi saint Nizamuddin Auliya. This sounds like the qawwali is only a reminder of Kamala's heritage and beliefs, but the second half of the song mentions someone absent from this procession who promised to be there, tying the song to Kamala's having disobeyed her parents by sneaking out AND to Marvel itself, for both the in-universe superheroes and the comic industry seem to be saying that someone like Kamala should not only be one of them—but she should have been among their number before. See more about the motif here. | |

Ms. Marvel (2014) / Comicbook / int_661d7909 | comment |
Maligned Mixed Marriage: Aamir's parents are hesitant when he announces his intention to marry Tyesha, his black girlfriend, as they'd prefer he marry a nice Pakistani girl. Their opinion is swayed when Tyesha demonstrates knowledge of traditional Pakistani Muslim traditions, such as the bride living with the family until the husband can afford to buy an apartment. Aamir also helps his case when he points out that they set Kamala up with a Pakistani boy in the past, and that being from the same ethnic background didn't preclude the boy in question from being a complete asshole. Tyesha's parents are also hesitant, since they're Christians (Tyesha converted in college), but they are swayed when Yusuf gives a heartfelt speech about treating Tyesha like a daughter. Also the reason why Kamala's parents won't let Bruno, who is Italian-American, date her, regardless of how much they like and trust him. Aamir explains to him they do this in order to ensure their cultural lineage is passed down. | |

Big Brother Instinct | |
Ms. Marvel (2014) / Comicbook / int_69681e01 | comment |
Big Brother Instinct: When Aamir (her actual big brother) sees her acting strange after returning home, and after she tells him 'something strange' happened to her, his first instinct is to pull her into a hug and assure her he will make it better... by getting a group of 'brothers from the mosque' to beat up whoever hurt her. Many heroes and secret agents she encounters tend to have this reaction. Wolverine tries to make her more wary about the not-so-fun side of fighting evil and puts in a good word for her with Captain America, Spider-Man is immediately receptive of how she hasn't had much experience with higher level baddies and tries to take on the more dangerous role in their fight with Dr. Minerva, and when she encounters Phil Coulson in S.H.I.E.L.D., he's clearly aware of how young she is and openly admits that he's become protective of her. | |

Oh Crap, There Are Fanfics of Us!: Kamala was a fanfic writer herself before she acquired her powers. This draws attention to the existence of fanfic about superheroes within the world in which they exist. In Kamala’s own title, she gets to inflict this trope on Wolverine when she meets him. However, in the first All-New, All-Different Avengers annual, she’s horrified to discover fanfics of herself and her teammates. It starts with a love triangle involving herself, the new Spidey, and Nova, and gets worse from there. | |

Meaningful Name | |
Ms. Marvel (2014) / Comicbook / int_6bda9a30 | comment |
Meaningful Name: The name Kamala's name is based on "kamal", an Arabic word for "perfection" though in Urdu-Hindustani (which is the language in Pakistan, not Arabic) it usually means, colloquially, "awesome". Orthographically, the word Kamala makes as much sense as Marvel's usual word choices (which runs on Rule of Coolnote For instance a poor Roma boy getting the aristocratic surname of Von Doom, or a WASP being named Charles Francis Xavier, which sounds Catholic) since Kamala is a separate Sanskrit word that refers to the Lotus flower, and is usually the name of a girl born to a Hindu background, which implies that Ms. Marvel's mother is quite a good deal more syncretic than she lets on. The name Kamal does exist among Muslim communities but it doesn't have a feminine form in that context. | |

Character Shilling: In a rare example of Tropes Are Not Bad for this trope, everyone loves Kamala in-universe, for good reason. She makes quite the impression on Wolverine, Carol Danvers quickly decides that Kamala is exactly the right person to carry on the Ms. Marvel name, Queen Medusa of the Inhumans takes a special interest in the young woman, Spider-Man states that she reminds him of himself as a teen and he thinks she's doing fine as a superhero and person, Tony Stark likes her enough to add her to the new Avengers roster and help her with her physics homework. Everyone says there's "something special" about Kamala Khan, and they're certainly right. She may not be the most powerful superhero around, but her high moral standards, amazing attitude, and pure heart make her someone easy to love, in-universe and out. The point is proven big time in All-New Wolverine #33; in a story set 30 years in the future, it's revealed that Kamala was elected as President of the United States. | |

Let Us Never Speak of This Again: Wolverine's notion towards Kamala taking him on her back when he was hurt in issue #7. Unfortunately Kamala, being herself, had already "Pictagrammed" it. | |

Cuteness Proximity | |
Ms. Marvel (2014) / Comicbook / int_80d55f20 | comment |
Cuteness Proximity: While everyone else runs in terror at the stallion-sized bulldog coming down the street, Kamala reacts to Lockjaw by gleefully declaring him the "cutest most humongous thing" she's ever seen, and gives him a big hug. The moment is explicitly an illustration of Kamala's heroic qualities: when everyone else responds to something strange and unusual with fear, she responds with love and acceptance, and thus gains herself a new, loyal, friend. | |

Alternate Universe | |

Alternate Universe: When Kamala & Shocker get caught up in his flawed wormhole generator, Bruno, in trying to rescue them, sees several possible versions of Kamala's future: in one, he and Kamala get married (in a traditional Pakistani ceremony, no less), in another she becomes President of The United States. This last one was previously used by Tom Taylor in the final issues of his run on All-New Wolverine, which showed President Kamala being irritated by Laura breaking into the White House so they could talk, instead of using her status as leader of a major nation (Madripoor) to make an appointment. | |

Reed Richards Is Useless: If there was ever a sign that the Marvel universe at large suffers from this, it's the issue where Kamala and Bruno compete in a science fair against Miles Morales. Kamala's team makes floating water, Miles' makes a generator that converts static electricity into energy, Bruno brings a portable cold fusion generator that can fit in his pocket. Somehow none of this results in the world changing overnight and energy companies throwing enough money in Kamala, Bruno, and Miles' faces to let them retire. | |

Bruno wakes up from his coma, but is now permanently disabled. He blames Kamala for what happened and for ignoring her friends, and reveals that he plans to leave New Jersey to go attend school in Wakanda. The issue ends with Kamala trying to convince him not to go, only for Bruno to shun her and say he never wants to see her again. Volume 3, issue 5: Kamala and her parents return to Earth after saving the planet Saffa, with a new nanotech Ms. Marvel costume. However, the WHAM comes in when Kamala talks to her parents and realizes that the Saffan magicians have removed their memories about her double life, followed by her father announcing to her that he is dying of some incurable illness. | |

The Knights Who Say "Squee!": Kamala is beside herself with glee when she first meets Wolverine (much to his annoyance), and when she gets saved by Spider-Man. And when she met Carol Danvers...oh gosh. Reached it's peak when she was asked to join the Avengers, though she did have a minor moment afterwards when she met the original Nova shortly after his resurrection (though she notes that some of his online fans put even her to shame in this department). | |

Continuity Nod: Kamala is shown to have a friendly relationship with Phil Coulson. This is because they previously met and teamed up in an issue of Mark Waid's S.H.I.E.L.D. series. In issue #34, Bruno sees various possible timelines. Two of which are President Khan from the "Old Woman Laura" story arc in All-New Wolverine and Khan from the Exiles relaunch. As well, Singularity mentions having met her in "the wars", a nod to Kamala showing up in the A-Force series during Secret Wars (2015). Unsurprisingly, Kamala doesn't remember it due to the Richards Family making sure they didn't. | |

Joisey: A big part of Kamala's characterization is that she lives in Jersey City, and writer G. Willow Wilson has actually gone to great lengths to replicate the experience of daily life in Jersey City and what it's like to grow up there. Kamala's high school is based on a real high school in Jersey City: McNair Academic High School, though (ostensibly for legal reasons) the school is referred to as Coles Academic High School, after Coles Street, the actual street that McNair Academic High School is located on. Even the visual image of the school's exterior is pretty much an exact copy of how McNair looks in Real Life. It's been explained that since a big part of Kamala's characterization is the fact that she's very Adorkable, G. Willow Wilson chose McNair as her alma mater since it's a high-achieving public magnet school. | |

If she heals too much at once, her shapeshifting abilities (such as for changing her appearance) become greatly weakened due to lack of energy. | |

Slipping a Mickey: Though Kamala wishes for more freedom and independence from her parents, she is still devoutly Muslim and refuses to drink alcohol. When she goes to a party and is offered a drink, she asks if there is any alcohol in it and is assured that it is just orange juice. Once she drinks it, they add "plus some vodka". She promptly does a Spit Take. Loki put a Truth Serum in the punch when he crashed a Valentine's Day dance. | |

Fish out of Water: In her first two volumes, Kamala mainly sticks to Jersey City, with the more outré adventures occurring when she's part of a team. In Volume 3, she spends a good deal of time out of J.C., first on the distant planet of Saffa when they mistake her for their "Destined One", then in central New Jersey when a road trip with Nakia and Zoe causes her to cross paths with Lockdown, Discord, and the sinister start-up Rubicon. | |

Kamala herself is one to the Marvel Universe as a whole. She instantly fangirls over team-ups and has such a chipper attitude that even her predecessor can't help but spend the last moments before an apocalypse with her. | |

My Beloved Smother: Kamala's mother is obviously very overprotective, and Kamala's father is set up as the more understanding and reasonable parent. However, it is implied that the readers are only seeing her mother at her worst, when she is at her most anxious about her daughter. When Kamala has her first major defeat and is feeling depressed about it, the first thought she has is that she wants her mother to comfort her. Subverted toward the end of the first series, when her mother reveals that she's known Kamala was Ms. Marvel ever since she saw pictures of her (since Kamala modified a burqini to serve as her costume), and that she wholeheartedly supports her. | |

Valentine's Day Episodes: Issue #12. It's pretty much filler, which can be summed up as: "Loki trolls the cast". Only two plot relevant things happen: First, it becomes obvious that Bruno has unrequited romantic feelings towards Kamala. Second, Loki wards the school which might reduce later property damage caused by superhero battles (as seen in #16). | |

Shout-Out: When Bruno admonishes Kamala on smelling forbidden bacon but not eating it, he advises her “Chow or chow not, there is no smell.” Kamala responds with “Thanks, Yoda.” Bruno's co-worker at the convenience store is named "Chatty Bob." There is a brand of hot sauce in Bruno's convenience store called "Dylan's Hot Fiyah." Magical Pony Adventures is Earth-616's counterpart of our My Little Pony Generation 4, complete with names such as "Rainbow Toots". When trying to research her new powers, Kamala kept finding web-pages dedicated to World of Battlecraft instead of anything helpful when searching for "Polymorph"note there is a spell by that name in World of Warcraft. The Konami code can be seen written on a wall in the sewers. A newspaper clipping in Kamala's room is from Fluffington Post. Bruno, at seeing "Captain Marvel" in his store: "Strange things are afoot at the Circle Q." Bruno's 1.21 Gigawatts t-shirt in #5. In #8, a guy who looks an awful lot like Marty McFly is sat behind Kamala in her class. And as a bonus, there's a doodle of the original Teen Wolf in his book — another Michael J. Fox role. In #9, Kamala and Vick can be seen eating burgers from Olmec Donalds. Kamala goes into Doge speak when she first meets Wolverine: Assorted uses of "embiggen" and "cromulant" Kamala after hacking an Inventor robot in #11: All Your Bots Are Belong To Us Bruno called Loki's improvized Love Letter Downton Abbey weirdo crap. The water taxi Bruno takes to New Attilan in #15 is called the Minnow. The boat's captain looks like the Skipper and there's a pelican on the roof of the boat wearing Gilligan's trademark bucket hat, too. Kamran's scream of rage after being defeated by Kamala: KHAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNN!!! The hot dog stand Kamala visits during Secret Wars has "Ol' Dirty Mustard" and "Mild Sauce For Sucka M.C.'s." There's a childhood photo of Kamala dressed like Leonardo. One issue opens with Kamala fighting a group of ice-themed ninjas who all sport metal headbands with leaf symbols on them. In issue #19 during Last Days, when Kamala reconciled with Nakia: In 2016 issue #7, Miles Morales (thanks to his Spider-Sense, of course) said "I feel a disturbance in the Force". In Vol. 2 #11, Hijinx mockingly calls Becky "Judge Dredd Barbie." In the same issue, Becky says "A wild Ms. Marvel appears." As Kamala and Laal Khanjeer ride the New Jersey rails in #23, Finbar McBride from The Station Agent can be seen standing outside his depot in New Brunswick. in Mike's introduction, there is a girl behind her that looks like a human Fluttershy. There is also a cameo of a turtle with a helmet who resembles Tank. | |

In issue fifteen, after Kamala is kidnapped by Kamran he explains that everything that made her vulnerable was something she did of her own free will, despite the fact that when Kamala realized something was up she repeatedly insisted that he stop. She even wonders if what happened really was her own fault. It sounds a lot like a sexual assault victim being told that she should have been more careful when confronting the person who assaulted her. The author tweeted that "I wanted to talk about consent in a fun, accessible way, without making the world into a terrifying place." | |

Ms. Marvel (2014) / Comicbook / int_ce555c91 | comment |
Post-Modern Magik: Bruno has no magical skill himself but he's capable of sampling the lightning golems Loki left for the school and combining that with Kamala's DNA to make simple-minded clones. He's also capable of using it to 3D print pretty much whatever animate thing he wants. Parodied later on when he attempts to summon Loki using Hipster iconography (glasses, franchise coffee cups) in a summoning circle. | |

No Periods, Period | |
Ms. Marvel (2014) / Comicbook / int_d0bf8a6d | comment |
No Periods, Period: Unsurprisingly, mostly invoked given the books target audience. The most blatant reference so far was in Marvel Team-Up #2 when Spider-Man and Kamala accidentally switch bodies; Peter-as-Kamala blows an important school assignment (a spoken presentation) because he's taken unaware by her menstrual cramps. When learning of this, Kamala-as-Peter is mainly concerned that he may have screwed up her grade and seems incredibly blasé about him having to attend to her body's intimate needs, only snarking "Welcome to being a teenage girl." | |

Breakout Character: Kamala herself in the greater Marvel Universe. Not only did the sales of the comic far exceed anyone's expectations, even easily outselling the former Ms. Marvel's new series, but by the end of 2014 she was already showing up in major guest spots in other comics, such as The Amazing Spider-Man and S.H.I.E.L.D. With her cross-cultural appeal credited with drawing female Muslim readers into buying comics, many critics started calling her the new Spider-Man. | |

Issues leading up to All-New, All-Different Avengers gave her moments with the second Nova. After that series' first story arc it bounced between him and Miles Morales. | |

Doubly bad idea considering the replicas are made by copying the stuff Loki's lightning golems are made of. And revealed in issue #5 to have been a really bad idea because Kamala's skin was tainted by an experimental neurotoxin when Bruno took the sample to make the clones, who are now replicating on their own. | |

The Fundamentalist | |
Ms. Marvel (2014) / Comicbook / int_f76842b1 | comment |
The Fundamentalist: Downplayed. Kamala's brother Aamir is the most devout Muslim of the family and disparages his father’s job since it involves usury (He works at a bank). Their father wishes Aamir would focus less time on prayer and more time on finding a job. Even though he's conservative and dresses, in his mother's words "like a penniless mullah", no one ever accuses him of being a terrorist, and he's shown wearing a western-style suit when going on a job interview. In the last pre Secret Wars (2015) comic he also informs Kamran in no uncertain terms that while, yes, he is devout etcetera, he's not going to take Kamran's side just because he's a guy and absolve him of all responsibility for what happened between him and Kamala. Quite the opposite, in fact. Then he punches Kamran in the face. Kamala is astonished (having assumed that Aamir hated her), Carol Danvers less so - as she remarks, Aamir is Kamala's big brother, he has her back (even if he's not precisely sure what's going on). The local imam, Sheikh Abdullah, is set up to be the typical fire-and-brimstone preacher, considering how much Kamala dreads having anything to do with him, but when she finally does talk to him he turns out to be very compassionate and understanding, even tacitly supporting her superheroing (although he doesn't understand exactly what she's telling him because she's not telling the whole story, he tells her it's the right thing to do). Later in the run, he becomes Kamala's most prominent non-superhero recurring mentor, and she seeks out advice for him when she's in distress. | |

Raised Catholic: The Khans are Muslim, but, aside from Kamala's brother, are not shown to be particularly religious., although Kamala attends lectures given by her imam several times early in the series, and she regularly goes to him with questions of morality. True to the trope, Kamala clearly takes the moral teachings of her faith as being of greater importance than the theology. | |

With Great Power Comes Great Hotness: Subverted. When Kamala Khan first gets her shapeshifting powers, she uses them to look like her idol, Carol Danvers (in her "swimsuit" Ms. Marvel costume). She quickly learns changing your outside doesn't change anything about who you are inside. . . along with many practical downsides of a typical superheroine outfit. | |
