Ms. Marvel Vol. 6: Civil War II | 
pickWho doesn't like a happy shark in a bubble? I mean c'mon!
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.
Looking for the helpers.🦸♀️

Such great backstory pieces into Kamala‘s family and childhood in this one, I loved it and the lessons about kindness.
pickAnother interesting volume, although not my favorite, mostly because there is A LOT of upheaval in Kamala‘s personal family and avenger life, this one also discusses some great real world issues. Definitely still a great series to read.

I never officially signed up for the graphic novel reading challenge but I did challenge myself to read at least 2 a month and I have been successful thus far. Ms.Marvel is more comic than novel but I enjoy this series and in these 2 books Ms. Marvel needs some rescuing of her own.
so-soThis might be the best storyline yet! Captain Marvel approaches Kamala and asks her to lead a group of vigilantes. They are using intel from someone who can predict the future to arrest people before they come crimes. The moral discussions about profiling and guilt v innocence in our society were SO GOOD. I also really liked learning about her family and seeing her make some very tough decisions
pickKamala is drifting further and further away from her friends while trying to impress Captain Marvel.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
pickI tagged the wrong volume earlier sorry. This was “Civil War Il” another great volume, with a sad twist. On to volume 7!! ✌🏽❤️😉😻📚⚡️⚡️
I keep trying to read other stuff, but Ms Marvel always pulls me back in.
Also, I thrifted a great new case for my hand-me-down iPad! It's older, so I had trouble finding one with the right dimensions. This one fits AND it's red. Red things are the best.
pickBook #2: ✅ Ms. Marvel Civil War II was great! We got more of Kamala's family's story and really got inside her conflicted feelings re: Captain Marvel. Now time for some coffee so I can be alert enough to read through midnight and accomplish my goal of at least 10 hours today. I started at 5 a.m. and squeezed in as much as I could (at about 6.5 hours now) between stuff with family, doing yard work, and hanging out with the husband. #24in48 @24in48
pickI don't read Spider-Man so this was my intro to Miles and I really liked him (even if all those New York kids are kind of jerks to our Jersey City crew, but I love Wilson's point about how unfair it is that these kids have to be so competitive). Lots of great stuff here. Kamala's friends are being further developed and I LOVE it! Also, getting Kamala's family history and a trip to Pakistan is awesome.
Everybody is watching the Vikings in South Dakota, except for me.
pickI really enjoyed this. I put off reading this for months because I was afraid I wouldn‘t be able to understand this without having read the rest of Civil War II, but it was pretty easy to follow. I was most interested in the flashbacks of Kamalha before she was Ms. Marvel. I am definitely ready for Volume 7!
So I‘m catching up on Ms. Marvel and... this just happened. Moments like this make me proud to be Canadian.

I'm FINALLY done with my evening engagements (no reading from 7-10pm!!) and am settling down to read some more before bed, whenever I decide that is (this #readathon lasts till 5am for me!). I really want to finish White is for Witching which I'm halfway done with, plus I saved the comics and things for now, when I'm more tired. #oncemoreintothebreach #deweysreadathon
Gotta love Kamala. One of my fav female superheroes.... eat your heart out Peter Parker.
pickMs. Marvel - Fantastic, as ever. This volume started a bit slow, but it ender being one of the most moving and best of all the volumes. I really hope Marvel continued to support the character. I'm hearing that these 'alternative' superheroes aren't doing do well saleswise = female characters, and in this instance = a female character from Pakistan. Recommended! #msmarvel #marvel
#24in48 Final Survey
1) I read two books, 7 graphic novels, half of Priestdaddy, listened to one whole audiobook (The Magnolia Story), and started another audio (Still Life with Tornado).
2) I stopped my clock a little over 24h, but ended up reading for another 1.5h before midnight and succumbing to sleep!
3) I loved how easy it was to post!
4) No changes ☺️
5) Will definitely do again!
Thank you for organizing such a wonderful event! 💜
pickAnnnnnd now I'm going to have to start reading the new Spider-Man because I like this Miles Morales.
pickAw! Little Kamala and Bruno! ❤ so.. predictive justice can go wrong quick. I figured as much!
Profiling by airport security: even superheroes can be targets.
pick#KamalaKhan does it again! This volume is packed with important questions about justice, identity, consequences, loyalty, friendship. #diversereads
I love when comic books include important issues and necessary conversations. This volume deals not just with profiling, but also with refugees and immigration. #KamalaKhan
pickA bit slow to start, but once it did, this volume delivers so much story: action, nuance, history and humanity. I can't wait for the next installment.
Kamala's Naani (maternal grandmother) with some wisdom applicable to all people & at every age. 👌🏻

Did....did she just compare invoking the name & science of Nikolai Tesla to Nazis & Hitler analogies? I....what? Why is this a thing? #currentlyreading

EDIT: this is actually super clever & totally connected to the greater storyline. I wholeheartedly approve.
I love Kamala Khan so much, & I am so glad I finally borrowed these #graphicnovels from the library. I can't believe I have to wait until August to read the next volume once I finish this one - this is why I like to wait until a series is completed before starting it, so I don't have to wait! #impatientreader #currentlyreading
pickAnother amazing volume of Ms. Marvel! I really enjoyed the conflict in this volume. The idea of predictive justice/profiling is an interesting concept to explore, especially in a super hero title featuring a Muslim hero. While I wish the resolution had gone a bit differently, I can't deny that this was a great and dramatic storyline. #comics
Real question for comic fans on Litsy: should I even bother reading all of my fav Marvel series that have gotten involved with Civil War 2? I'm so upset that so many of my favs have been dragged into this take two petty shit. Should I bother reading Ms. Marvel, Captain Marvel, Spider Woman's titles that focus on CW2? I'm like so tired of seeing all of this #comics #marvel
Last night, in the car, waiting to pick up my dinner
so-soI didn't love the latest volume in Ms Marvel... something has felt a bit off - this skipping around the timeline has messed with my head a bit.
Ms Marvel and Rellenong Bangus (or stuffed milkfish) because Good Friday. :)
Anyone else taking part in the #borrowathon on twitter? I can't wait to read all my graphic novels from the library!
This cover really stresses me out. #msmarvel #marvel #comics #graphicnovels
pickThis is by far my favorite Volume of Ms. Marvel starring Kamala Khan! Her physical growth was obvious bc of the illustrations, but it was also to help show her emotional & character growth. The themes similar to our world are: the impacts of allowing technology to run our world, is arresting someone 4 a crime they're planning 2 do go too far, the immigration crisis, & young ppl reacting violently to rejection. Loved the flashbacks in this Volume!
Awwww poor Kamala- feels like she doesn't belong anywhere :( I suppose many immigrants and their children would feel this way.
As Dumbledore said: it can be harder to stand up to your friends or people you admire more than your enemies... Ms Marvel valiantly standing up to Captain Marvel was a huge turning point for Kamala!
