Review: THE MAGNIFICENT MS. MARVEL #1

THE MAGNIFICENT MS.MARVEL No. 1
MARVEL COMICS – @Marvel

[This review was originally posted on Patreon.]

WRITER: Saladin Ahmed
PENCILS: Minkyu Jung
INKS: Juan Vlasco
COLORS: Ian Herring
LETTERS: VC's Joe Caramagna
EDITOR: Alanna Smith
EDITOR-IN-CHIEF: C.B. Cebulski
COVER: Eduard Petrovich
VARIANT COVER ARTIST: Elsa Charretier with Matthew Wilson; Babs Tarr
32pp, Color, $4.99 U.S. (May 2019)

Rated T+

Kamala Kahn created by Sana Amanat, G. Willow Wilson, Adrian Alphona, Stephen Wacker, and Jamie McKelvie


Ms. Marvel is a Marvel Comics female superhero character.  The original version of Ms. Marvel was created by writer Gerry Conway and artist John Buscema.  First appearing in Ms. Marvel #1 (cover dated: January 1977), she was meant to be the female counterpart of Marvel's Captain Marvel (who first appeared in 1967).

The new Ms. Marvel is Kamala Khan (the fourth character to take the name Ms. Marvel).  Created by Sana Amanat, G. Willow Wilson, Adrian Alphona, Stephen Wacker, and Jamie McKelvie, Kamala first appeared in Captain Marvel #17 (cover dated: November 2013).  She is a 16 year-old Pakistani-American from Jersey City, New Jersey.  She idolizes Carol Danvers, the original Ms. Marvel (who is now the current Captain Marvel).  Kamala was given her own Ms. Marvel series, which premiered in February 2014, becoming Marvel Comics' first Muslim character to star in her own comic book.

2019 welcomes a new Ms. Marvel comic book series, The Magnificent Ms. Marvel.  It is written by Saladin Ahmed; drawn by Minkyu Jung (pencils) and Juan Vlasco (inks), colored by Ian Herring, and lettered by Joe Caramagna.

The Magnificent Ms. Marvel #1 (“Super Famous” Part One of Three) opens in “the far future” on “another world.”  An alien father tells his daughter a bedtime story of the legendary hero known as the “Destined One,” a hero from Earth who we know as “Ms. Marvel.”  Meanwhile, on present day Earth, Ms. Marvel is not feeling very much like a legend.  Her parents are about to confront her, and she is fighting crummy costumed villains, some of which dissolve into goo after she defeats them.

Salamed Ahmed is currently writing the recently launched Miles Morales: Spider-Man comic book.  Ahmed became the first writer other than Miles' co-creator, Brian Michael Bendis, to write an ongoing Miles Morales comic book series  Ahmed once again is filling big shoes by becoming the first writer other than Kamala Kahn's co-creator, G. Willow Wilson, to write an ongoing Kamala Kahn-Ms. Marvel comic book series.

Ahmed's inaugural issue of The Magnificent Ms. Marvel is filled with several delightful surprises, from the opening alien world-set prologue (of sorts) to the closing family drama shocker.  I don't want to spoil more than I already have, but everything in this comic book, especially the last three pages makes me want to come back for the second issue of The Magnificent Ms. Marvel.

Pencil artist Minkyu Jung and inker Juan Vlasco are a solid new Ms. Marvel art team.  Ian Herring's excellent coloring sets the perfect mood and atmosphere for each sequence and sub-plot in the first issue, especially on the first page.  As always, Joe Caramagna does solid lettering.  The Magnificent Ms. Marvel #1 promises an interesting new era for Marvel's first Pakistani-American superhero.

Review: HOUSE OF WHISPERS #1

HOUSE OF WHISPERS No. 1
DC COMICS – @DCComics @vertigo_comics

[This review was originally posted on Patreon.]

STORY: Nalo Hopkinson
ART: Dominike “Domo” Stanton
COLORS: John Rauch
LETTERS: Deron Bennett
EDITOR: Molly Mahan
CURATOR: Neil Gaiman
COVER: Sean Andrew Murray
VARIANT COVER: Bill Sienkiewicz
32pp, Color, $3.99 U.S. (November 2018)

“Suggested for Mature Readers”

The Sandman created by Neil Gaiman and Sam Kieth

“Broken Telephone”

The Sandman Universe is a new line of comic books inspired by the dark fantasy comic books that Neil Gaiman wrote for DC Comics, in particular The Sandman (1989-1996) and The Books of Magic (1990-1991).  Neil Gaiman acts as a curator of the line, which currently includes four titles, The Dreaming, Books of Magic, Lucifer, and the subject of this review, House of Whispers.

House of Whispers is written by Nalo Hopkinson; drawn by Dominike “Domo” Stanton; colored by John Rauch; and lettered by Deron Bennett.  The series focuses on a tragic goddess who grants the wishes and counsels the souls of those who visit her in their dreams.

House of Whispers #1 (“Broken Telephone”) opens just outside a houseboat known as the House of DahomeyUncle Monday of the Brotherhood of Teeth has come to visit the owner the houseboat, the goddess Erzulie Fréda.  This is also where souls of Voodoo followers go when they sleep.  They travel to Erzulie's houseboat where they can beseech the flirtatious and tragic Erzulie to grant them their hearts’ desires or where they can ask her to counsel them on their futures and fortunes.

From her perch in the bayou, Erzulie sees four human girls open a mysterious and magical journal.  This little book is filled with whispers and rumors that, if they spread, could cause a pandemic unlike any the Earth has seen.  Erzulie must discover the whereabouts of and then stop the conniver behind this plot, Erzulie's nephew, Shakpana.

We have Neil Gaiman to thank for bringing writer Nalo Hopkinson into The Sandman Universe fold.  Left to its own devices, DC Comics would not have chosen Hopkinson.  In twenty-five years of publishing hundreds of comic books and graphic novels, only a handful have been written by African-Americans, black writers, or writers of African descent.

What Hopkinson offers in this first issue is a dazzling array of colorful sequences, sparkling story elements, and fabulous characters.  Reading this comic book is like experiencing an African or African-American folk music festival full of fierce beats and infectious rhythms.

Artist Dominike “Domo” Stanton offers imaginative compositions that yield a style of graphical storytelling that is bursting with magic.  My eyes greedily took in every corner of the Domo's panels and observed every line for secrets.  John Rauch's colors enrich Domo's illustrations and even accentuate the eccentric to make this comic book truly a unique visual treat.

Deron Bennett's clever lettering pretends to be a rhythm section, but when I pay attention, I see Bennett's fonts giving Hopkinson and Domo's story that extra whatever it needs or even taking the lead in conveying the story.  Also, Sean Andrew Murray's gorgeous cover art makes this comic book hard to ignore on a store shelf.

I won't lie and say House of Whispers #1 is perfect.  Sometimes, it is so busy being different that the story gets lost in its House of Dahomey house party shenanigans.  Still, this may be the best of The Sandman Universe's debut quartet.
