TV Series - Ms Marvel (2022) [+]

Ms Marvel is a 6-episode 45-min episodes series on Disney+ and is a prequel to The Marvels (2023). High schooler Kamala Khan (Iman Vellani) finds a gauntlet from her grandmother in the house attic which gives her super powers. With the help of her best friend Bruno (Matt Lintz) she works on being a superhero fulfilling her dreams of being special. But she also comes to the attention of Damage Control, a government agency created to mitigate super hero and villains' destructive tendencies. Also Kamala is contacted by a group of Djinn, really aliens from another dimension trapped on Earth that want Kamala's help in creating a gate home...

A teen coming of age series where the teens aren't annoying. Good action sequences. Pakistani-American heroine is nice and there is an episode that visits the past during the last night before India-Pakistan partition on Aug 15 1947. This is a better series than I expected.
