Ms. Marvel Vol. 7

The villian here is really reaching and the voting part, while cool for teen audiences, felt a bit too didactic to be as fun as the rest of the series

Story
This is easily my least favorite volume thus far. If I wasn't such a big World of Warcraft fan, I doubt I'd have liked it as much as I did.

I'm obviously pretty far out of the target demographic for this series, but that's never felt as blatantly apparent as while reading this volume.

The first issue was a side story encouraging people to register and vote. I get that, and voting is important, but it made for a pretty dull story.

Most of the volume deals with a computer virus introduced via a popular MMO game that Kamala likes to play. There were a lot of issues dealing with privacy and internet shaming. Stuff I'm glad I never had to deal with in High School. I thought it handled those subjects pretty well, but the underlying story left a bit to be desired.

The final issue looks to be maybe the start of a side story for one of the supporting characters. Or maybe it was just a one-off. Kamala wasn't involved at all really. It deals with the world of Black Panther, of which I know almost nothing about. However I'm excited for the upcoming movie so it was cool to get a bit of a glimpse of that world here.

Overall this didn't feel like it added much to Kamala's story, but they can't all be winners. I hope things pick up a bit more in the next volume.

Artwork
Much like the last volume, there are several different artists used, but the same colorist. These don't seem to be all new people, but maybe more of a rotation? Either way the artwork continues to be great and I don't really notice that it's changing between issues.

4 stars So nice to get back to this series <3
