Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. Another excellent story! Captain Marvel wants Kamala to help with a team that can stop criminals before they commit the crime. She is excited for this except when it gets personal. Wonderful graphics and a good read. ( ) This volume was fantastic. I didn't realize the superheroes were splintered. In this volume we have Kamala working for Carol Danvers and trying to train up Carol's so called Cadets. Carol believes that she can stop crime from happening by using a system in which they can tell if people are going to commit a crime a beforehand. So pretty much everybody just think of the Tom Cruise movie Minority Report. And if you have seen that movie you know this isn't going to work and this is totally flawed. What really works is that we see Kamala start to be more vocal about not agreeing with Carol, even though she's her idol. Carol is hell-bent on protecting the city from crimes and doesn't seem to really care about the fact that other people could be hurt. When Kamala's friend Bruno is hurt due to actions by the cadets Kamala switches sides and decides she'll do whatever she can to bring down the cadets, even if it means taking down Carol. In between all that the volume switches back and forth between Kamala's parents in Karach,i Pakistan and even shows Kamala going to Pakistan. When Kamala and Bruno have a falling-out, Kamala is left twisting in the wind a little bit and trying to figure out where she belongs. I did get a kick out of seeing this Ms. Marvel in traditional Pakistani garb. And I definitely loved her meeting another local superhero who maybe possibly could be a future love interest. I definitely liked the guy. I think all in all though this volume was definitely about Kamala growing up and realizing that even though she admires and cares for Carol Danvers sometimes the hardest thing you can do with people that you admire and love is stand up to them. And then we have Tony Stark showing up by the way who totally kicks ass again in this volume by just being there for Kamala. I like to imagine him being a leader for all the younger superheroes because he's definitely had some hard lessons. I obviously love the artwork and the panels are really good and your heart breaks a little bit when you get this see how much Bruno means to Kamala. I was surprised to not see Mike though and I don't see how they work with Bruno going to Wakandà . The volume leaves Kamala on the outs with Carol. Though Carol does get rid of Basic Becky and her nasty self. Can't wait til the next volume. no reviews | add a review
