No matter how much Marvel denies it, the truth is that since the Cinematic Universe has gained weight, comics have been absorbing everything that has been created from it to make it more accessible to new readers (and much more confusing for lifelong fans). For example, when mutants were owned by Fox and the Inhumans movie was announced, “mysteriously” all humans started dying in the comics and giving their own series to Black Bolt and company. And now the same thing has happened, but in reverse.
You are killing me
The whole mess started when Cody Ziglar, writer of ‘Miles Morales: Spider-man’, said that the death of Ms. Marvel, which happened within the comics of ‘The Amazing Spider-man’, and her subsequent resurrection as a mutant instead of an inhuman, came directly from Kevin Feige’s office to justify the character’s inclusion in the mutant universe in the movies.
Apparently, Feige called Zeb Wells, the current writer of the Spider-Man comic, to tell him “Hey, I don’t usually do this, but could you please make this align with the movies? I have some things we want to do with Kamala”. And how do you say no to the boss? They all came up with the idea that Kamala had a dormant mutant gene and could be resurrected in Krakoa by the X-Men, but without any of her Inhuman past remaining in her body. And that’s it.
Afterwards, of course, once everything got out of hand, the screenwriter himself rushed to talk to the media and say that he remembered wrong, but that the decision to kill Kamala and resurrect her as a mutant was a collective action of Marvel’s comics team, and not Kevin Feige’s. Haha, who would have thought. If I were Ziglar, I would start looking for another job, frankly.
