In every Look Back, we examine a comic book issue from 10/25/50/75 years ago (plus a wild card every month with a fifth week in it). This time around, we head back to February 2014 to see the debut of Kamala Khan’s Ms. Marvel ongoing series. A natural aspect of comic book publishing is that comic book companies frequently try out new publishing initiatives from time to time. Often, readers won’t even necessarily NOTICE that that is what is happening, like when DC leaned into its Silver Age superhero revamps in the late 1950s/early 1960s by transitioning The Brave and the Bold to a “try-out” format, and pairing it with Showcase to launch a number of new superhero concepts (like Hawkman, Justice League of America, Metamorpho, Metal Men and more). Other times, though, the initiave is quite blatant, like when a new comic book imprint is launched.During the 2013 crossover event, Infinity, Thanos and Black Bolt had a battle in the Inhuman city of Attilan, as Thanos was looking for his long-lost part-Inhuman song, Thane. During their battle, Black Bolt set off a Terrigen Bomb, which wrecked Attilan, and then released the Terrigen Mists (exposure to which is what gives Inhumans their powers) into the Earths’ atmosphere, which would result in any human who had Inhuman ancestry (and since the Inhumans had intermixed with humans thousands of years earlier, there were a lot of humans out there with Inhuman DNA) gaining Inhuman superpowers.
