The NZA Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 looks like they'll be changing her powers - i imagine energy stuff is easier to CG than a lot of stretchy limbs, much less ones that sort of require time travel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alive she cried Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 I don't really know this character very well, but she's essentially Marvel's Plastic Man (who I'm also not that familiar with honestly) right? If so maybe they don't want to step on Mr. Fantastic's toes as Fantastic Four are on the way soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted October 25, 2021 Author Share Posted October 25, 2021 nahh she's an inhuman who can embiggen but doesn't really move like plastic man or reed - really enjoyable character too, her first few volumes are a blast if you get a chance to read em 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jont Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 From what little I read, I more saw her as Marvel's attempt to do Spider-Man again, a teenager with superpowers in New York, trying to balance everyday life with whatever it is you're supposed to do when you've got superpowers.

The NZA Posted October 27, 2021 Author Share Posted October 27, 2021 yeah she definitely had an early spidey vibe, big differences being the muslim family & living in jersey -but the everyman ability to team up with just about everyone is a facet of her character, no doubt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Visitant Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 (edited) So, discourse on twitter seems to be around 2 things 1. "finally a superhero that looks/acts like me" and 2. WTF did they do to her powers? Edited March 15, 2022 by Visitant 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted March 15, 2022 Author Share Posted March 15, 2022 great trailer, excited for kamala to finally get more known Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Visitant Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Yeah. Curious about the power changes but other than that I really am hyped for more people getting introduced to her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iambaytor Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 This looks cheap and the need to spite Ike Perlmutter has drained a lot of the interesting weirdness out of it. I really like Kamala and I really don't like how much like a DCOM this looks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted May 12, 2022 Author Share Posted May 12, 2022 wait why is spiting ike (normally a good thing) playing into this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iambaytor Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 So famously Ike decided to elevate The Inhumans after his "no more mutants" edict pre-Fox merger. Since Feige was in charge of the movies and untouchable by Ike due to him having Disney's untouchable status, Ike leaned hard into the TV arm which Feige didn't control at the time. This is why Inhumans went from a movie into truly one of the worst superhero TV shows of the modern era. As Feige's role was elevated to basically being the go-to guy for Marvel writ large, The Inhumans were largely purged from the comics and Kamala and Moon Girl were really the only Inhuman characters left standing after all this went down. Marvel has now quidrupled down on mutants and rather than write Kamala's Inhuman nature into her character (even though Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. provided a matrix through which to do it) they just turned her into a Green Lantern. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted May 13, 2022 Author Share Posted May 13, 2022 damn, i knew some of that (the inhumans went to one of the dumbest wars with the mutants and ive barely seen them since), but that's crazy. i swear i read somewhere they may have considered retrconning out her inhuman origin in the book, too i'm with you here though, i love kamala and i'm hoping for greatness but what's being shown so far has me a little worried Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted June 10, 2022 Author Share Posted June 10, 2022 so this was cool - really stylish, kamala is super likeable and her family is too. i didn't always know about the actor for bruno, but dug a lot else here i'm still gonna assume embiggining was pricey/weird, on board to see what they do with her energy projection Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted July 15, 2022 Author Share Posted July 15, 2022 this turned out fun as expected, but we really gotta talk about the post credits reveal 2nd time we've heard that throwback theme this year! i guess it makes sense to not make her an inhuman since they don't have them here yet, but being a mutant & needed the band is kinda weird? either way, newtype was saying how we may learn more at next week's comic con, but i'm starting to think we're gonna secret war our way into explaining where the x-men & fantastic four have been Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Visitant Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 Yeah that was a thing that happened. Phase 4 sure is a weird one for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alive she cried Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 (edited) I really enjoyed this. I wasn't really familiar with the character at all as she was introduced after I stopped reading Marvel monthly. But I liked her and her family. Got a young Spidey vibe from her. Definitely down for more. Post credit was unexpected to say the least. Edited July 24, 2022 by alive she cried 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
