Warning: Contains SPOILERS for Ms. Marvel episode 1!
Kamala Khan's origin story begins in Ms. Marvel episode 1 and reveals how her MCU powers are different than her abilities in the comics. Marvel fans have been waiting to see Kamala Khan join the MCU since she debuted in the comics in 2013. As a teenage Pakistani-American and Marvel's first Muslim superhero, the announcement of a Ms. Marvel Disney+ show in 2019 confirmed that she would join the shared universe before too long.

The show primarily focuses on establishing Kamala Khan's normal life at school, with her friends, and with her family, along with making her Avengers obsession clear.
