That mannequin is taller than Sana Amanat and G Willow Wilson. They've joked about "our daughter" being taller than them.

I love how no matter how big or small the mannequin is it would still be technically accurate to Kamala's size lol

So, does anyone know why Tony Stark lied to Kamala about the cure for her dad? After all, it should take about 30 seconds for Extremis 3.0 to wipe out any disease, and he should still have the specs for a freeware version of the nanites, with or without accompanying app.

And how would they explain how Tony knows about Mr Khan's predicament, without revealing that Kamala is a superhero? Kamala could get Tony to look into possible cures, but Tony can't personally provide it, since Kamala's not meant to know him personally. And he didn't want to force Kamala to out herself.

It's the usual superhero excuse of "If you cure him, you have to cure everybody else or you're not being fair." I imagine Strange is going to tell Kamala the exact same thing.

If he cures him, he'll have to cure everyone else, and that would lead to an event where the cured people end up becoming monsters, ending in them curing people of their cure, and stark vowing never to cure anyone else again because humanity just ain't ready to be free of crippling diseases man.

Well, first off - then cure everyone else! He's still got the tech, and he's not Axis-inverted any longer, so there's no reason he would feel compelled to charge an exorbitant subscription fee as opposed to letting the nanites fix people up as needed.

Secondly - that is not at all what he told Kamala. He flat out told her his people didn't have a cure yet. Why did he lie?

Because it's incurable for plot-reasons, period. And you missed the other part where everybody he cures would inevitably turn into insane monsters to emphasize why he doesn't cure everybody.

Mass-curings of normal diseases (like cancer) in fiction NEVER WORK and only make things even worse.

"Ms. Marvel tidbit: the audition sample scene features her being interviewed by Captain Marvel and explaining her origin (Terrigen mist, Inhuman ancestor), and talking about watching the New Avengers train. It probably won’t be in the show but the origin will likely stay."

So based on Ms. Marvel's issue today I'm going to assume that the new costume is going to be temporary just like the Symbiote Suit for Spider-Man back in the day.

Let’s hope!

I've been feeling that way since day one, especially with that busy design.

[Digifiend]

It was telling that the last two issues of Champions didn't use the new costume. The second Marvel Team-Up arc is the only place it's been used outside her solo.

Today's issue was decent. I'm not digging Monopoly yet but it was cool to see Lockdown and Discord pop up as his enforcers.

spoilers:

Anybody besides me wondering what the deal is with Monopoly? Seems clear that he's some kind of shapeshifter like Kamala but is more like The Thing in that he absorbs his victims' flesh and leaves them as zombified husks. Pretty obvious that he'll be back since his power seems unable to get through Kamala's suit (has to be direct skin contact). Basically, it'll force her into conflict when she knows the suit is a bad influence on her like the symbiote was but needs it to beat him.
