Kamala (Iman Vellani) wants answers. Or rather, you need them. Having shown – or not – her potential, Jersey City’s youngest heroine begins her journey into her story. Her, her family, and the power she wears on her back in a strange bracelet inherited from her great-grandmother. AT Ms. Marvel, from Disney+, it’s time for the answers. Also, one that allows the series to explore its universe, its ethnic accent, and its intellectual way of analyzing the feel of a superhero. All against the backdrop of painful memories of loss, marriage, and the investigation of a possible hidden enemy.
Perhaps this is due to his ambition, but the third episode Ms. Marvelcan’t cover everything it offers. Or, at any rate, it does so hesitantly, without the brilliance and sparkling vivacity of the two previous chapters. So far, Marvel’s big bet with the character has been to explore the world of a very young superheroine in training with blinding brilliance. But for your new episode, the series becomes slower, less celebratory, and more introspective. The change of half suits him, he stands on a quick, but less effective speech than before.
Until now, Ms. Marvelhe is a collection of energy and seems to lose some of it as he digs deeper into Kamala’s powers and her origins. The superhero finally finds her equals—or who she thinks she might be—and the plot carefully assembles the idea of an origin. And he goes through it, through oral storytelling, with the feeling that there are more secrets to keep. Not only in search of Kamala’s reason why she has power and how much it can affect, show his transition to the heroic. But Kamala is only sixteen years old. And the experience of older beings surpasses him, surpasses him, and, in the end, turns into a series of half-truths.
