I've been reading the 90's ...Love the list! I've been reading the 90's Avengers Assemble comic series in the past month, and Carol is part of the line up. I especially enjoyed the issues in which she first came in, which follow her realization that she's become an alcoholic. I'm new to comics, but I love that Marvel doesn't shy away from talking about real issues such as alcoholism. It makes Carol's character more human (and others like Tony Stark), and it connects to that section of the market, showing them that even super beings have these problems, and they can be over come. <br /><br />I haven't read any Kamala Khan, but she looks like a really interesting character! A huge geek- yes! (the panel you showed made me laugh). It's also cool that she's Muslim, and that they go through her personal realizations when it comes to managing a double life. I'll have to check her out!<br />-Lizzie (nerdchillin.blogspot.com)<br /><br />Elizabeth Ansteyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06807736368448281228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1929369424588700011.post-21187678740761902172015-04-28T22:11:34.825-05:002015-04-28T22:11:34.825-05:00I have just added a stack of new books to read!
