Ms. Marvel, Vol. 6: Civil War II

Still one of my favorite series going on today with a surprise! My favorite spiderman Miles made an appearance! I love the that this issue was fun but then surprise again! Also filled with some extreme emotional things going on in the end that got me on the brink of tears. I'm not at all a fan of the cover but the art style inside is fantastic. I liked a ton of things in this volume but I don't feel much for Captain Marvel. I know she's important to Ms.Marvel but in these and past volumes I never really felt they were close enough to make the impact like it should have. Another thing is I feel like Ms.Marvel was learning how to prioritize better about putting her family and friends and learn to balance both lives better, but I guess she needs to work on this a little harder. I liked in this issue how we got her family history and learned more about how important her bracelets are and I also like meeting more of her extended family.

Pobrecita mía, ¿¡POR QUÉ LA ESTRESAIS DE MALA MANERA¡? Y que majos son los amigos y que achuchables todos.
Y jolines con el conflicto. Y no digo más por spoilers.

Story
I ended up liking this a lot more than I expected. I don't follow Marvel comics anymore. This series is my only exception. So I was a bit nervous that this volume would be hard to follow due to a bunch of Civil War II stuff.

I'm happy to report that wasn't the case. I'm sure there is some nuances that were lost on me, but most of the story was small. I like that. I feel like especially with all the Marvel Universe movies going on, everything is such huge stakes all the time.

Kamala has a lot to deal with, especially being so young yet herself. But much of this story isn't the end of world, it's pretty self-contained to Jersey City.

I like how the story arc fit the Civil War theme but didn't rely too much on other Marvel heroes to drive the plot.

My favorite part of this volume was probably the science fair issue. It doesn't hurt that Miles Morales shows up. It has me a bit tempted to give his spider-man series a shot one of these days.

Overall I thought this was another solid volume that kept itself grounded despite the larger Civil War II arc I'm sure was forced on them by Marvel.

Artwork
The art is always all over the place. This volume lists 3 artists, including the original artist Adrian Alphona. I thought it was all pretty good, and I must say that I didn't really notice the change from volume to volume. It probably helps that it's had the same colorist.

Don't really Care about the Civil War aspect (personally not into comics enough to be excited about comic character crossover) but still love Kamala's story line. Great addition of family back story flashbacks. such relevant and necessary themes for teen readers.

Glad Hijinx kept it real when he referenced Minority Report. Will probably never not love Kamala.
