Marvel Comics is bringing Ms. Marvel back as a 16-year-old daughter of Pakistani immigrants living in Jersey City named Kamala Khan.
The character — among the first to be a series protagonist who is both a woman and Muslim — is part of Marvel Entertainment’s efforts to reflect a growing diversity among its readers while keeping hold of the contemporary relevance that have underlined its foundation since the creation of Spider-Man and the X-Men in the early 1960s.
Writer G. Willow Wilson and artist Adrian Alphona, working with editor Sana Amanat, say the series reflects Khan’s vibrant but kinetic world, learning to deal with superpowers, family expectations and adolescence.
Amanat calls the series a “desire to explore the Muslim-American diaspora from an authentic perspective,” and what it means to be young and lost amid expectations by others while also telling the story of a teenager coming to grips with having amazing powers.
“I wanted Ms. Marvel to be true to life, something real people could relate to, particularly young women. High school was a very vivid time in my life, so I drew heavily on those experiences: impending adulthood, dealing with school, emotionally charged friendships that are such a huge part of being a teenager,” said Wilson, whose previous comics work includes Vertigo’s Cairo and the series Air.
“It’s for all the geek girls out there and everybody else who’s ever looked at life from the fringe.”
She can grow and shrink her limbs and her body and, Wilson said, ultimately, she’ll be able to shape shift into other forms.
The idea came after a discussion with senior editor Stephen Wacker as they compared stories about growing up.
DC Comics last fall relaunched its Green Lantern series with Simon Baz, an Arab American and Muslim. The character reflects writer Geoff Johns’ Lebanese ancestry and his upbringing in the Detroit area.
There have been a few others: Marvel Comics has Dust, a young Afghan woman whose mutant ability to manipulate sand and dust has been part of the popular X-Men books. DC Comics in late 2010 introduced Nightrunner, a young Muslim hero of Algerian descent reared in Paris.
The creative team said that Khan’s backstory, growing up Muslim, is an element of the story, but not the critical foundation, either.
People killed by radical Muslims on 9/11: 2,996
Muslim-Americans killed "in revenge": 1
Thankfully, an American jury sentenced Mark Stroman to death. The same cannot be said of many Muslim terrorists such as Lockerbie bomber, Abdelbaset Al Megrahi, who not only have sanctuary in Muslim countries, but are often treated as heroes by devout followers of Muhammad.
Of course, 9/11 was neither the first nor the last time that Muslims have killed Americans on U.S. soil in terror attacks. In fact, since that day, Muslims have killed at least 61 people in 36 separate acts of terrorism in the United States (by the standards that Muslim-American groups set for hate crimes). Perhaps more importantly, there have been plenty of mass murder plots against Americans by Islamic terrorists that were thwarted by the FBI, law enforcement and overseas intelligence operations both before and after 9/11, as well as several that were simply botched, such as the attempt to blow up Times Square.
By contrast, Muslim-Americans do not appear to be in any special danger from murderous (non-Muslim) religious fanatics, even in a nation awash in firearms. Identity groups, such as CAIR, whine incessantly about relatively trivial incidents while turning a blind eye to the horrible violence that is meted out daily in the name of their religion. This distasteful petulance offers insight not only into the character of Islam, but also the America's impressive religious tolerance.
For anyone wondering about the history of deadly Islamic terror on American soil in the last 35 years, here’s what we could find:

Where's the Link?
Most of these seem like utter bollocks, including the half dozen cases of 'Muslim Snipers' in the U.S.
it's easy to look up your self...and I'm sure you will my friend.
Godfather.
You posted an article from the internet with no link and no title, and placed your name at the bottom of it. Where's the link? Something you wish to hide?
'The politically incorrect truth about Islam - one really messed up religion'.
So, we have Aerial posting articles by holocaust deniers from far-right websites associated with such extreme racist groups as Stormfront, and we have Godfather posting 'articles' from an anti-Muslim website that proclaims such nuggets of wisdom as "Islamic terrorists murder more people every day than the Ku Klux Klan has in the last 50 years", and which claims that Syrian Muslims engage in cannibalism.

awesome job man.....now can you discredit any of the info ? or just the web site.
Good list, 20 years of stats and the list could fit on one side of A4.
It seems then that the level of violence enacted in the name of Islam in the USA is a drop in the ocean compared to the USA's overall crime stats, and that the threat to Americans as individuals from Islam is negligible compared to that of being murdered by a good old fashioned American nutter.
Thanks for bringing this to our attention Godfather.
Brian; all respect to you Buddy, as I have said in earlier posts I am always willing to learn, but so far with the muslim deal nobody has proven different to my opinion and I have yet to meet a muslim that I am aware of anyway.
Godfather.
Does Badbrains come across as an evil guy?
no he does not,I would like to meet him someday and just talk about his faith and as for the rest of islam I can only base my opinion on what I have already learned.
Godfather.
No thanks GF, I could never stomach sitting next to a homophobic bigot like you. We have ZERO in common. And if you want to learn about my faith, ask someone who gives a shit about teaching you it. It's most def NOT me.
Edit-why the fuck would u want to meet me? Aren't you afraid I'd kidnapp you and cut your head off? :roll:

Most of the things on that list are no doubt complete bullshit. If you read it you can see that without even needing to search out the finer details. It's just a typical Mickey Mouse webpage catering to racists and bigots.

From this description you would never know that one of the perpetrators was actually a US Citizen. Makes me more than skeptical of the rest of this list.

I googled some of it, the sniper attacks were the Beltway Snipers, who professed after the fact a terroristic intent and other such random nutters. Others are just crimes committed by Muslims, which if we are taking that as "terror attacks" makes Christianity the largest terrorist organisation in the Western world.
Either way, even taking the list at face value, Americans clearly have much better things to worry about than Muslims.

Byrnzie,Byrnzie,Byrnzie.......there you go again the topic is "Muslim Brotherhood Operatives in U.S."...but one reason you might believe that is because we have obama in the white house......
the topic is "Muslim Brotherhood Operatives in U.S."
The topic is an article on familysecuritymatters.org. A far-right Islamaphobe website which, on August 3, 2007, 'published an opinion piece by Philip Atkinson, which advocated for making George W. Bush president for life, because "the inadequacy of Democracy, rule by the majority, is undeniable." Furthermore, after giving Atkinson's interpretation of Julius Caesar's treatment of Gaul, the article called for emptying Iraq of its Arabs:
"If President Bush copied Julius Caesar by ordering his army to empty Iraq of Arabs and repopulate the country with Americans, he would achieve immediate results: popularity with his military; enrichment of America by converting an Arabian Iraq into an American Iraq (therefore turning it from a liability to an asset); and boost American prestige while terrifying American enemies." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Center_for ... l_writings
They were also behind the campaign opposing a mosque in the vicinity of Ground Zero. http://www.salon.com/2010/08/23/park51/

You posted an article from the internet with no link and no title, and placed your name at the bottom of it. Where's the link? Something you wish to hide?

'The politically incorrect truth about Islam - one really messed up religion'.
So, we have Aerial posting articles by holocaust deniers from far-right websites associated with such extreme racist groups as Stormfront, and we have Godfather posting 'articles' from an anti-Muslim website that proclaims such nuggets of wisdom as "Islamic terrorists murder more people every day than the Ku Klux Klan has in the last 50 years", and which claims that Syrian Muslims engage in cannibalism.
awesome job man.....now can you discredit any of the info ? or just the web site.
Godfather.
It seems then that the level of violence enacted in the name of Islam in the USA is a drop in the ocean compared to the USA's overall crime stats, and that the threat to Americans as individuals from Islam is negligible compared to that of being murdered by a good old fashioned American nutter.
Thanks for bringing this to our attention Godfather.
No thanks GF, I could never stomach sitting next to a homophobic bigot like you. We have ZERO in common. And if you want to learn about my faith, ask someone who gives a shit about teaching you it. It's most def NOT me.
Edit-why the fuck would u want to meet me? Aren't you afraid I'd kidnapp you and cut your head off? :roll:
Most of the things on that list are no doubt complete bullshit. If you read it you can see that without even needing to search out the finer details. It's just a typical Mickey Mouse webpage catering to racists and bigots.
From this description you would never know that one of the perpetrators was actually a US Citizen. Makes me more than skeptical of the rest of this list.
"...I changed by not changing at all..."
I googled some of it, the sniper attacks were the Beltway Snipers, who professed after the fact a terroristic intent and other such random nutters. Others are just crimes committed by Muslims, which if we are taking that as "terror attacks" makes Christianity the largest terrorist organisation in the Western world.
Either way, even taking the list at face value, Americans clearly have much better things to worry about than Muslims.
Godfather.
I'm just trying to fit the mold you have of us. :roll:
Who are these Vice Presidents you speak of? I see no one with that title in the org chart for DHS. Can you clarify who in this list is alleged to be a member of the Muslim Brotherhood?

"...I changed by not changing at all..."

Godfather.
Awesome comeback grandpa!
Edit- I mean godfather :roll:
q
I don't know who that was directed at but that is some funny stuff in any case !
Godfather.
badbrains I thought you'd like that
Godfather.
I won't respond until I know it's directed at me.
funny is funny I don't care who it was directed at, this is just a forum where opinions are shared and that's all..we will not be "meeting outside the bar" or anything stupid like that and when we are done sharing our opinions we will close out the site and go about our own personal business so if someone on here calls me a name and I have been called a few I usally laugh or post back in kind just for the fun of it...it no big deal and thats why I don't hide my opinions from about muslims or gays or anybody else because it's only MY opinion and I don't care what you think of my opinion....yes it took a while for me to understand that.
Godfather.
Opinions, opinions, opinions, opinions...
Opinions aren't worth shit. Why don't you try engaging with facts instead?
In the meantime, here's a book that may help you understand why the U.S is known as the dumbest country on Earth: http://www.amazon.com/Idiot-America-Stu ... 0767926153
Byrnzie,Byrnzie,Byrnzie.......there you go again the topic is "Muslim Brotherhood Operatives in U.S."...but one reason you might believe that is because we have obama in the white house......
Godfather.
The topic is an article on familysecuritymatters.org. A far-right Islamaphobe website which, on August 3, 2007, 'published an opinion piece by Philip Atkinson, which advocated for making George W. Bush president for life, because "the inadequacy of Democracy, rule by the majority, is undeniable." Furthermore, after giving Atkinson's interpretation of Julius Caesar's treatment of Gaul, the article called for emptying Iraq of its Arabs:
"If President Bush copied Julius Caesar by ordering his army to empty Iraq of Arabs and repopulate the country with Americans, he would achieve immediate results: popularity with his military; enrichment of America by converting an Arabian Iraq into an American Iraq (therefore turning it from a liability to an asset); and boost American prestige while terrifying American enemies."

They were also behind the campaign opposing a mosque in the vicinity of Ground Zero. http://www.salon.com/2010/08/23/park51/
They're nothing but a bunch of ignorant bigots.
Keep up the good work.
Not that it should matter if a mosque is built at Ground Zero anyway. It's a perfectly reasonable place to build a place of worship.
'The group which sponsored this rally has a website — the repellently named StopThe911Mosque.com — which is registered to The Center for Security Policy, the group of Frank Gaffney, one of the most deranged and dishonest right-wing extremists in the country:
