This is so NOT an affirmative action comic. I love her so much. It only spices up ... everything... because she's Muslim. She's geeky, naive, and stubborn as hell. What's not to love? I'm reading it because of the nomination for best graphic novel of 2015 for the Hugos, and I can tell already that this is going to be a tough race between it and Saga. I'll still need to read two other series, but so far I'm charmed to death.
