Ms. Marvel will come back from the dead for new comic series written by her MCU actor

Iman Vellani — breakout star of Ms. Marvel on Disney Plus and the upcoming The Marvels — will have a new notch on her creative belt this fall when Ms. Marvel: The New Mutant hits comic shop stands. The new four-issue series will be co-written by Vellani and Sabir Pirzada, with art from Carlos Gomez and Adam Gorham.

Kamala Khan will return from her untimely death for the book — which is not particularly surprising. And she’ll have a new superhero status as a mutant — also not too surprising. But that her series will be written by the actor and the writer behind her MCU debut? Now there’s a comic book twist.

Ms. Marvel: The New Mutant will be Vellani’s first writing credit, but before she graced Marvel screens, she was already putting in the work on the storytelling side of the film industry, participating in a selective Toronto Film Festival committee of up-and-coming youth. And her nerd cred as a comics fan is absurdly well-established.

To wit, even in the first announcement of the series’ existence, Vellani took time to unpack its big, obvious change to comics canon: Ms. Marvel, the world’s most famous Inhuman, will follow her MCU counterpart in becoming a Mutant just like the X-Men.

“I want to make it very, very clear that we are not reconning [sic] her Inhuman origin,” Vellani said in Marvel Comics’ news release. “That’s a part of Kamala’s identity that Marvel editorial and myself would very much like to keep and protect. Our book will absolutely reflect all those core themes of identity that the Ms. Marvel comics have consistently explored — only now there’s a whole new label that Kamala has to learn to accept. It’s going to be pretty crazy.”

Vellani and Pirzada will be only the third and fourth writer to tackle
