So I decided to give this a go after having enjoyed Ms. Marvel's character in earlier Avengers and others comics. It, like many other comics, would probably make a somewhat confusing starting point, as there's little explanation when other characters are introduced. But as it was, it worked fine.

It's a nice, not overly complex, story dealing in the aftermath of House of M. The alien attack and Traveller stories are decent, although I most enjoyed the characterization of Ms Marvel as an unsure, very human, superhero. ( )

Although I'm pleased that a strong female character like Ms. Marvel has her own title, I can't say that I was really wowed by the first offering. Carol spends most of her time fighting a z-list villain (Traveler) or stopping an alien invasion, but there's very little character development or excitement to be had. ( )

Actual rating: 4,5. ( )
