Ms. Marvel #21 Review

Writer: G. Willow Wilson / Artist: Marco Failla / Marvel Comics Maaaaaaaaan, G. Dubs (G. Willow Wilson) and Marco Failla waste no time giving the audience the Wrestlemania main event for this issue. Kamala was caught between a Dwayne Johnson and a hard place (see what I did there?) as her brother Aamir gets pulled out the police wagon as one of the many Inhumans rounded up. Kamala is being forced to turn herself over in order to protect these people and we get a great inner monologue about the needs of the few, will more times than not, always have a loop hole to take center stage over the needs of the many. Kamala knows what she’s going to do but then we see her brother Amir make the decision for her as he and the rest of the Inhumans literally go Chuck D (fight the power). I ain’t see that shit coming at all, and I fucks with that.

Seeing the usually conservative throwing deuces to the law was a thing of beauty and one that Willow knows isn’t lost on the audience. Amir’s actions get placed center stage as he and his fellow Inhumans go on the lamb. Aamir’s politics and beliefs are put in front of us in order to explore the noticeable beginning of a change in ideologies that this experience is leaving on him and his belief of being accepted among the American conservative society (seeing as his conservative beliefs were akin to theirs). Let’s also be clear that this reference to folks being locked up in police wagons and lost in the cracks of the system is a clear reference…
