Kamala Khan AKA Ms. Marvel is a superhero from Marvel Comics.
History[]
Kamala Khan is a Muslim-Pakistani teenager in Jersey City keenly interested in the Avengers and close friends with one Bruno Carrelli. She received superpowers which she used to become the superhero, "Miss Marvel", inspired by her idol Carol Danvers AKA Captain Marvel. As Ms. Marvel, Kamala was active in Avengers Campus California where she posted videos of herself on social-media.
Ms. Marvel became a recruit for the Avengers, under the wing of Sam "Captain America" Wilson. The two followed an energy signal to the Disney Wish where Ultron and an army of sentries planned to steal PYM Tech quantum technology from Ant-Man and the Wasp. Alongside Wasp and Captain Marvel, Ms. Marvel and Cap were able to defeat Ultron's forces.
