Sometimes, it's hard for a new hero to catch on. Because of this, comic companies will put new characters into familiar mantles. This gives the new character name recognition but like with all things, there's always a chance it can fail. One new character that has succeeded in an old mantle is Kamala Khan, Ms. Marvel.
Ms. Marvel is one of the most popular new characters created in the last twenty years. Fans immediately took to her, flocking to her adventures and Marvel gave her a higher and higher profile, making her one of the Avengers and giving her a team of her own, the Champions. She's worked with a lot of heroes and has earned all of their respect but there are some who wouldn't like her at all. Which heroes respect her? Which heroes would despise her?
10 Respects Her: Falcon
During Falcon's time as Captain America, he was the leader of the Avengers team that Ms. Marvel was a part of. While he has years of experience on Ms. Marvel, he still found a lot to like about the spunky young heroine. He respected her never say die attitude and her dedication to heroism.
Anyone who took to the hero game as quickly as Ms. Marvel has is bound to gain the respect of the old guard and Falcon worked closely with her for a while and saw just how good she is.
9 Would Despise Her: Red Hulk
Red Hulk wasn't always a hero. General Thaddeus "Thunderbolt" Ross became Red Hulk to get revenge against the Hulk and would eventually join the Avengers and the Thunderbolts. Red Hulk is a military man through and through and that would be a huge impediment in dealing with Ms. Marvel.
Red Hulk is very serious and Ms. Marvel isn't. Their demeanors are completely different and Red Hulk wouldn't do very well with her wisecracks and she wouldn't enjoy his dourness.
8 Respects Her: Valkyrie (Jane Foster)
Valkyrie was also Ms. Marvel's teammate on the Avengers when she was the Goddess of Thunder, Thor. The two of them had a lot in common- both were rather new to the superhero game and had joined the Avengers for the first time. They both were stepping into some big shoes and both of them had done a great job.
Both of them went from being normal people to the top of the superhero game almost immediately and have a tremendous amount of respect for each other.
7 Would Despise Her: Hulk
Ms. Marvel has really only dealt with one Hulk in her time, the totally awesome Amadeus Cho. As far as Hulks go, he's one of the easiest to handle. Ms. Marvel would have a much more difficult time dealing with the classic Hulk, Bruce Banner.
Lately, Banner has either been a mindless berserker or a monster who doesn't get along well with anyone. He would find Ms. Marvel to be an annoyance at best and at worst, someone to smash.
6 Respects Her: Nova
Ms. Marvel and Nova have been working together for a very long time, both as Avengers and Champions. The two young heroes stepped into big shoes and showed how good they could be, taking mantles that others popularized and making them their own.
They have worked together very well and have been through a lot. Together, along with Spider-Man, they defied the Avengers and struck out on their own, and people that don't respect each other don't do things like that with each other.
5 Would Despise Her: Magneto
While Magneto was once one of the X-Men's greatest villains, he has worked with the team for a long time now. He also has a very long memory and it wasn't too long ago that Inhumans were trying to protect their Terrigen Mist clouds at the expense of mutant lives. He wouldn't forget that Ms. Marvel fought on the side of the Inhumans in the battle over the Mists.
It's true that Magneto doesn't take very well to anyone who has endangered mutants and Ms. Marvel, as likable as she is, would be no different. She'd be lucky if he didn't attack her outright.
4 Respects Her: Medusa
Medusa is the queen of the Inhumans and was the leader of the Inhuman race during the conflict with mutants. Knowing how dangerous the X-Men could be, Medusa called for help from the Inhumans that didn't hang out with the rest of their race and Ms. Marvel was one of them.
Medusa has been around for a long time and is a great judge of character and talent. For her to choose Ms. Marvel to help her and the Inhumans against the X-Men means she trusted and respect the young hero.
3 Would Despise Her: Cyclops
X-Man Cyclops died because of the M-Pox, a disease caused by the Terrigen Mists. While he's in a good place mentally nowadays, he's still all about his people and wouldn't like the fact that Inhumans were perfectly fine with the genocide of the mutant race so they could keep their Terrigen Mists.
Ms. Marvel fought for the Inhumans' right to commit genocide against mutants, basically fighting against mutants' right to exist. Cyclops couldn't respect her at all and would actively despise her fighting for those who were okay with the death of his people.
2 Respects Her: Spider-Man
Ms. Marvel and Spider-Man met when they were Avengers and became fast friends. The two young people had a lot in common and while they idolized the heroes of the older generation, they still had the wherewithal to defy the Avengers and start their own team.
While they both started in the shadow of other heroes, Spider-Man and Ms. Marvel distinguished themselves from their mentors and forged a lasting friendship founded on mutual admiration and respect.
1 Would Despise Her: Punisher
The Punisher doesn't get along with anyone. He has been known to work with actual superheroes but most of them find the murderous vigilante to be a tad to close to the villains they fight and he doesn't believe they do enough to fight evil. He would especially dislike Ms. Marvel.
She's much too bubbly and moral for the likes of him. Punisher's war has hardened him and he believes that anyone who isn't like him is weak and he would definitely think that about Ms. Marvel, actively despising her weakness.
