TRAPPED IN THE DARK WEB! When Jean Grey returned from the dead, Scott Summers left his wife and child to be with her. The fact that she was revealed to be a clone of Jean didn’t make her feel any better. Maybe the cold sting of revenge can?

Dark Web: Ms. Marvel #2 is silly fun mixed into a bigger event

Dark Web: Ms. Marvel #2

Dark Web: Ms. Marvel #2 wraps up the two issue tie-in series to Dark Web delivering a hell of a lot of fun and laughs. Demons have descended upon New York City as Chasm and the Goblin Queen are out for revenge in a follow up event to the classic story Inferno. In the previous issue, Ms. Marvel was sucked into limbo leaving readers to think she’d spend this issue battling her way out and then connecting with the other heroes. Well, if you did, you’d be wrong.

Writer Sabir Pirzada takes the series in an unexpected direction as Ms. Marvel’s time in Limbo is rather short. Instead the comic mostly has her battling a group of villains, The Inventors, who I have no idea about. But, you don’t really need to. What’s fantastic about these two issues are that they can be enjoyed by themselves with their tie-in to Dark Web tenuous at best. There’s all sorts of weirdness going on but Kamala’s interaction with the other heroes or event at large is minimal. Though, the issue delivers its best moments following the story of Kamala’s mosque which has come alive and now going… somwhere.

Pirzada delivers so much humor in the comic it’s hard to not constantly laugh or at least have a smile on your face. What’s presented is so absurd in a way the story just goes with the flow having fun with the possible this event presents. The mosque segment alone makes the issue worth it.

Some of the fun involves the art which pops. Francesco Mortarino‘s art style is awesome and it’s only made better by the colors from Dono Sanchez-Almara and Fernando Sifuentes and lettering by Ariana Maher. Though the comic event falls into the horror genre, the comic pops and never goes too dark. The colors fall on the dark side of things but they still glow off of the page like a night sky lit up. The design of everything is great and will have you lingering to see all of the details.

Dark Web: Ms. Marvel #2 is just a hell of a lot of fun. The comic could easily stand on its own, having little to do with the greater event. Even if you’re not interested in it, this is a two issue series that’s worth picking up to just sit back and enjoy.
