Loading ...Muslim Female Superheroes
“Now, fifteen years and a conversion later, I have gotten to see the introduction of Muslim superheroes in this generation’s comic and TV series. Some examples includeDust in X-Men, Ms. Marvel and the Burka Avenger. And whereas Ms. Marvel, written by a Muslim woman, and the Burka Avenger have been overly well-received by audiences that see a positive shift in the superhero rhetoric, Dust’s image is somehow more complex because some suggest it is embedded with Western ideas of the male gaze, the burqa and politics.”
