Since the boom of brand new exciting superhero characters in the 1960s and '70s, there have not been too many new characters added to Marvel lore that has really stuck. This has been especially the case since the 2000s began. One young female hero, however, has broken that mold.
Following in the footsteps of her idol, Carol Danvers, the young Inhuman known as Kamala Khan took up the identity of Ms. Marvel and began fighting crime. Because of how well this new character has been received, many cosplayers have given there own take of Kamala. Here are ten Ms. Marvel cosplay that will have you fist-pumping.
10 Little Ms. Marvel
A Deviantart user named Imperius-Rex decided to share this adorable little cosplayer with the world. This picture has a whole lot of impactful significance that comes along with it. It shows the world that there are many types of heroes that every type of person can aspire to.
9 Kamala Flying Into Action
This action shot cosplay performed by pohutukosplay shows the young hero leaping into action. Everything about this suit is pretty accurate to the original comic book character's design.
Ms. Marvel is an action-packed character that always seems to find herself caught up in the heat of the battle. This cosplayer knew that about the character and did her best and displaying that aspect for everyone to see.
8 Silent Protector
The look of Zaira555's cosplay has a way of leaving those who view it stunned. The costume is absolutely gorgeous and perfectly encapsulates everything that fans love about the character. From the colors and design of the suit to her scarf and even the intricate bracelets, everything about this suit is great.
One especially noteworthy aspect of this specific cosplay is the shine on the golden parts of the suit. Little aspects like that really bring this costume full circle into helping it seem much more believable as if it had actually come straight from the pages of a comic book.
7 Hero Pose
Another wonderful cosplay by DashaOcean shows the young hero leaping into action. The beautiful nature of the suit Ms. Marvel wears in the comics is that it looks as though it was made of very raw, basic materials. That makes the costume very easy to replicate for cosplayers.
An important thing to note if you hope to cosplay as Kamala Khan is to not go over the top. Ms. Marvel herself didn't have much to work with to create her suit, so don't go on putting too many expensive materials into it. DashaOcean understood that, and that's why that cosplayer appears twice on this list.
6 Smiley Kamala
This ecstatically happy Kamala seems very excited to be on a convention floor. Although it is overwhelmingly likely that the cosplayer known as Qrow92 was simply smiling for the camera, this picture does a great job of encapsulating Ms. Marvel's bubbly, positive nature.
The fists on the hips continue to show us a character that is not afraid to be the hero and put her foot down but also is totally willing to talk things out with a smile on her face. She's serious yet down to Earth at the exact same time.
5 Ready For Action
This cosplayer, subjectn01, is yet another young woman that knows exactly what Kamala Khan, also known as Ms. Marvel, is all about. By having a wry smile combined with the crossed shoulders really helps capture the attitude and demeanor of the character.
In addition to those qualities, much like some other cosplayers on this list, subjectn01 decided to use very basic materials for the costume. That is exactly what Ms. Marvel would have done if she had to make her costume in the real world. This is what she would look like.
4 Posing With Her Hero
This second picture of DashaOcean's cosplay shows the wildly popular Ms. Marvel character next to her personal hero and former woman to hold the Ms. Marvel mantle, Carol Danvers, also known as Captain Marvel.
This picture appears to show the two heroes teaming up. It almost represents a changing of the guard in the way. Or to put it in different words, the passing of the mantle. Kamala has very big shoes to fill.
3 "Bring It On" Says Kamala Khan
Azael1332Ragnarok chose to go with a slightly different color scheme than the rest of the Ms. Marvel cosplayers on this list. Instead, this cosplayer goes with a darker alternate version of the Ms. Marvel costume.
While it's very fun to see the comic book character in her classic duds, it is a nice change of pace to also see her in this darker costume. It lets you know that despite what you might think about her, Kamala Khan can be as serious as any other hero when she gets down to business.
2 A Hero's Roots
The background behind this Ms. Marvel cosplayer, Amapolchen, gives off plenty of Middle-Eastern vibes. Given that identity is part of what makes this character so special, it is a very nice touch.
In addition to the fun background, everything about this cosplayer's interpretation of the Ms. Marvel suit is exactly spot on. Undoubtedly one of the best aspects is the long scarf flowing in the wind.
1 Back To Back Marvels
A second cosplay by Amapolchen shows why she truly understands how to capture the essence of Ms. Marvel aka Kamala Khan. Back to back with her mentor/hero Captain Marvel, Kamala is showing that she is no longer just a fangirl that admires Carol Danvers. She is now also her peer.
A changing of the guard is one of the most interesting parts of superhero comics. Heroes passing on their legacies to newer, younger heroes that then have to figure things out for themselves is a great part of the superhero story. Hopefully, Ms. Marvel does a competent job of upholding Carol's legacy. It seems more than likely that she'll make for a worthy successor.
