It's Thursday, it's still too hot, let's get some comics-y superhero-y goodness right here on Dora Reads!
Moon Knight Pitch Meeting
I'm a huge fan of Ryan George's Pitch Meeting series, and his Moon Knight sketch does not disappoint!
I love how good-natured it is, while also being hilarious and not shying away from the obvious issues and plotholes.

Muslim Ms Marvel
Check out this great YouTube video from Dr Safiyyah Ally @ Let the Quran Speak discussing various elements of Muslim representation in the Ms Marvel Disney+ series.
There's a lot of ground covered in a short video so it's well worth the watch!
(Beware of some SPOILERS though.)

...I'm still on the lookout for discussions of Ms Marvel from South Asian, Pakistani, and Muslim voices, so feel free to drop any links in the comments!
Traditional Shameless Self-Promo
- Over on Medium I talked about the decision to not release the Batgirl movie
- And last week's Friday Fics Fix put Marvel characters in the middle of a summer-camp horror movie!

Sharing and commenting fuels me almost as much as coffee! 😅
It's hard to find South Asian and Pakistani reviews of Ms. Marvel that aren't just a big news site rehashing what some viewers have said on Twitter. I would love to read more in-depth Own Voices reviews! My experience being half-Pakistani and watching the show was very positive, but I'd be curious to hear more from Muslim voices and from people especially who were directly affected by partition.
ReplyDeleteV. true - I'll keep on the lookout for some :)
