Ms. Marvel is a new superhero that is a breath of fresh air. This strong, powerful, protector of the universe is packed into a short, clumsy/nerdy, teenage, Pakistani American girl named Kamala Khan. As Kamala is trying to navigate her everyday high school life, she constantly has to take time out to save her friends, family, and city from the evil super-villains; using her extraordinary strength and stretching ability. In "Crushed" Kamala receives a special valentine from a secret admirer who asks her out to the school dance. Unfortunately, because of her parent's strict rules she is not allowed to date nor attend dances. Kamala still goes to watch over the student body, which lucky for them she ends up saving them from evil villain Loki who tries to spike the punch to turn the students into mindless slaves.
Also a new villain shows up and he has set up an elaborate plan to trap Ms. Marvel. Will she fall right into his hands or figure it out just in time? Kamala may be a bit distracted this time as a handsome young man whose parents are a friend of the family arrives. Of course this guy is approved of by her parents, much to the chagrin of Kamala's best friend Bruno.
It's fun to see this young girl show her sweet and powerful sides. And it also give a little peak at what a very muslim household would run like. I would recommend this comic to any teenager (boy or girl).
