I wanted to start with this book and this particular story because it feels like where the creators finally relaxed and went “okay, this is gonna work, we can do the thing we want to do and now we know what that is”. Not to mention that all the couples at the dance are revealed to actually be miserable and feeling pressured once they take the truth serum. And sometimes the Valentine’s dance is a time to say “Friendship love is just as important as other love and I love you”. Being a friend is awesome, not a bad thing. A letter from a secret admirer is CREEPY. The high school dance is full of folks of different colors, sexualities, everything.Īnd the LESSONS! It takes the classic Valentine’s Dance high school story and turns it around. Everyone’s generally nice, but also “ugh, hipsters”. I also like this Loki standalone because it is sooooooooooo Jersey City! At least, the Ms Marvel version of it which (I hope) is close to reality. I like this Loki standalone, because it turns him into the silly older dude at the high school dance, trying to relate to the young people, giving them good advice they mostly ignore. One of the best things about Ms Marvel is that it takes all the big scary “grown-ups” from the other Marvel serieses and turns them into safe kid versions. They are the perfect thing to read when life is crazy and you can’t focus. Woot! Comic books!!!! I am on SUCH a comic book kick right now.
