Muslim superhero comic figure in America
Marvel’s Muslim superhero, Kamala Khan, inspires big hopes
Kamala may be the most intriguing American Muslim superhero, with an ability to destabilize stereotypes while reinforcing ideas about American exceptionalism.
“As a researcher who has examined Muslim superheroes in American comics, I find Kamala to be the most intriguing of all American Muslim superheroes. She has an ability to destabilize stereotypes of Muslims while reinforcing ideas about American exceptionalism. In the hands of different writers in various comic iterations, she has appeared as multi-dimensional and stereotype-breaking, but also as a one-dimensional figure that advances Islamophobic themes.”
