Pakistani-origin creator breaks stereotypes with muslim Ms. Marvel

With the rise of terrorism in the world, many Muslims are having trouble and Muslim women aren’t having it easier than before but they are fighting it in different forms. Art has always been known to express views and with the popularity of Marvel Sana Amanat has broken a stereotype in the most unique way possible.

According to a report in the Khaleeji Times, Sana is an artist who faced stereotypes from many Americans since the 90s because of terrorist attacks. Interestingly, she is now instrumental in creating a Pakistani-American superhero Kamala Khan or Ms Marvel. The character in the series looks up to Carol Danvers, the original Ms Marvel and is a mirror image of Sana’s life in America. Last year, she launched the book when she met Barack Obama during Woman History Month and that seems to be her biggest achievement till date.

The 34-year-old comic books editor will be present at the Emirates Airline Festival of Literature early next month on March 3 in two different sessions talking about the different stereotypes she has broken with her comic book on the Marvel character.
