  • Nearly every single solo and team series starring or featuring her including Champions got cancelled due to low sales. The only exception is her debut mini.
  • Her show was the lowest viewed MCU show on Disney+.
  • Putting her in cartoons
  • That Avengers game starring her sold terribly because of both her and the GaaS nonsense.
  • She is hated by a lot of Muslims from what I heard.
  • Being shoved in the upcoming Marvels with Brie Larson version of Captain Marvel. Most will know will be a flop.
  • Even her origin story is kind of dumb. She's a super obsessive fan of Carol Danvers to the point of almost being a stalker and gets nearly everything handled to her.
Kamala is like the pre-Tribal Chief Roman Reigns of Marvel Comics.

Because she is awesome!

Also I find it absolutely ridiculous you think the Avengers game failed due to her and not the billion other problems with the game

What is the real reason you decided to post this?

She is also in Marvel Champions LCG, and quite good in it as well.

Learn to read. I never said I hated the actress. It's Kamala Khan in general.

... are they? I haven't really seen anything about her since that show I didn't finish. If they are plugging into more shit, or planning to, I was happily unaware of that till this topic so I can't help but wonder what the difference between us is - where we both don't really like the character but only one of us is aware of anything and everything the character is doing and may do.

It'll be interesting to see her team up with Carol Danvers and Monica Rambeau. It'll also be interesting to see her in other team up movies. She could work as a good comic relief character for the Avengers.

I didn't know Marvel's penchant for constant relaunches and renumbering is solely due to Kamala. The more you know. Are you going to argue Miles Morales is also a disliked character? He was a part of Champions and he didn't end up saving it from cancellation

Let's see what other teams she was on. There's Avengers (not cancelled), Young Avengers (ended on the creative team's terms), Champions (cancelled), Secret Warriors (cancelled) and New Avengers (ended its run). So that's 2 out of 5 team books that were full on cancelled.

That was deserved. It started out well enough and got worse each episode.

Phoenixeater posted...

Yeah, Kamala must've been a main contributor to the poor sales. It couldn't be the mindnumbing gameplay, myriad of glitches upon launch, ridiculous pricing of costumes, lack of actual Marvel NPCs, locations, enemies,...

Phoenixeater posted...

From what I've heard, that's a lot of bullshit.

Phoenixeater posted...
Putting her in cartoons

How dare they put her in cartoons like the vast majority of Marvel characters with solo and team books?!

Phoenixeater posted...
Being shoved in the upcoming Marvels with Brie Larson version of Captain Marvel. Most will know will be a flop.

The fact that you felt the need to specify it's Brie Larson is showing your hand. And I believe you were among the ones claiming the first movie would flop.

Their kind of hoping she just lucks out and becomes becomes super popular like miles did. Only with nothing to work with compared to him.

And while there's nothing with her character wise in my opinion.

She sort of takes after a relativily unpopular hero Marvel was also trying to make popular with resistance, her costumer is terrible, and her power is pretty generic and boring as far as modern powers go.

She's coming back, now as a mutant. The only reason they killed her was to set up for her to revive as a mutant now. Apparently she is joining the xmen

Fairly well received by those that watched it. Just not the biggest audience. Show had some issues with the bigger plot elements but the characters were great.

But ya everyone knew as soon as they teased her as a mutant in the MCU that she was going to eventually going to get Retconed as one in the comics

And ya.. The Avengers Game failed for a whole crap ton of reason.. I dont think it did almost anything right
