Ms. Marvel #42

Wow. This thing is filled with wooden dialogue and bad art. I hadn't even realized that the "babies" were baby MODOKs until I read the recap, I had figured they might be Storytellers like the god-like kid who has shown up in this comic for awhile. Moonstone doesn't talk like this, so I have to assume she's being controlled by the MODOKs. I did like the Sentry arriving to wrap up the Ms. Marvel fight, but it was disappointing seeing that much collatoral damage. I certainly don't understand how Carol Danvers shows up at the end. Carol is an alcoholic, so her standing there with a beer can't be right, can it?

Sana Takeda's art is pretty bad. Moonstone and Ms. Marvel have the exact same bodies and faces, and it all looks way too manga-y for me.

Poor

I've loved this series up until the death of Carol Danvers, and ever since then the art and stories have taken a nose dive. I'm holding on to see if MS. MARVEL can achieve its greatness again, but I don't know how confident I am that it's possible.
