Shop Girl: Kamala Khan 'Ms. Marvel'

I've always been a Marvel girl in the Versus DC debate, and it's been great recently to have such an excellent suite of new issues - particularly in Matt Fraction's Hawkeye, Kelly Sue DeConnick's Captain Marvel and the new Ms. Marvel by G. Willow Wilson.

The latter is a terrific series, with a ferociously awesome heroine in Kamala Khan, a young Muslim women who, after a freak accident, becomes a superhero. At the series' worst, it's a moving and generally very funny portrayal of a teenage girl's coming of age and full realisation of her strength of will and character, and at it's best it's one of the best new comic book series in years.

Kamala's basically the best.
