Ms. Marvel

Meet Sana Amanat, a renowned comic book editor and the creator of the breakthrough Muslim-American female comic book superhero, Ms. Marvel. Much of the work Sana creates at Marvel is about reaching out to girls and women — bringing them into the world of graphic storytelling, and helping them to feel at home there. Amanat values inclusion above all else, and her current work now as Marvel Comics Director of Content & Character Development allows her to continue to work for inclusive storytelling for all readers, regardless of their race, age, gender, or beauty.
