Kamala Khan was an average high school student until a mysterious mist unlocked her shape-shifting superpowers and changed everything. When her obsession with building her alter ego's image starts to affect her grades, friendships, and sense of self, Kamala must confront a bigger challenge: accepting who she is, flaws, quirks, and all. Filled with humor, heart, and comic book flair, Mirror of Most Value brings Marvel's beloved teen superhero to the stage in a story about identity, fandom, and finding the courage to be yourself.
