Gwendolyn Willow Wilson (born August 31, 1982) is an American comics writer, prose author, essayist, and journalist. Her first graphic novel, Cairo (published by Vertigo in 2007), was written after living for a time in Egypt, and was listed as a top graphic novel for teens. She is well known for relaunching the Ms. Marvel title for Marvel Comics starring a 16-year-old Muslim superhero named Kamala Khan.

Early life[]

Wilson was born on August 31, 1982 in Monmouth County, New Jersey, and grew up in Morganville.[1][2] Wilson lived in the county until she was 12.[3] However, in an interview with Newsrama in 2013, she erroneously said she was born in Morris County and spent the first ten years of her life there.[4] Her parents were atheists who renounced Protestantism in the late 1960s,[1] hence Wilson was not raised in a religious household. Wilson first encountered comics when she read an anti-smoking pamphlet featuring the X-Men in the fifth grade. The characters fascinated her and she began watching the cartoon X-Men every Saturday.[5] Two years later she and her family moved to Boulder, Colorado, where Wilson continued to pursue her interest in comics and other forms of popular culture such as tabletop role-playing games.

Conversion to Islam[]

Later in her life, Wilson attended Boston University to pursue a degree in history. During her sophomore year, Wilson began experiencing adrenal problems from a Depo-Provera shot[6] and the associated discomfort resulted in her studying a number of religions, including Buddhism, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Wilson first considered converting to Judaism because she admired the idea of "the indivisible God who is one and whole", but "it was created for a single tribe of people." (This is taken from her memoir of her time in Egypt, The Butterfly Mosque.[1]) After studying Judaism she focused on Islam, which appealed to her because "to become a Muslim is sort of a deal between you and God."[7] The 9/11 terrorist attack set back her religious studies – fearing she had misjudged the religion – but she later resumed her studies.[5]

In 2003, shortly before her graduation, Wilson agreed to teach English in Cairo. During the plane journey, Wilson converted to Islam; claiming she "made peace with God. I called him Allah." According to Butterfly Mosque, upon arrival in Cairo, Wilson secretly practiced Islam but after becoming engaged to an Egyptian she began to practice it more openly. She and her roommate resided in Tura, a district in Cairo, Egypt, and they initially had a difficult time purchasing food in their new environment. The pair soon met a physics teacher named Omar who offered to show them around and act as a cultural guide. Months later, Wilson and Omar became engaged.[8] Later, she moved with him back to the United States, with Wilson returning to her writing career, and Omar becoming a legal advocate for refugees.[7]

Career[]

Wilson's writing career began from her work as a freelance music critic for DigBoston.[9] After moving to Cairo, she contributed articles to the Atlantic Monthly, The New York Times Magazine, and the National Post.[10] She was also a regular contributor to the now-defunct Egyptian opposition weekly Cairo Magazine. Wilson was the first Western journalist to be granted a private interview with Ali Gomaa after his promotion to the position of Grand Mufti of Egypt.[11] Additionally, Wilson released a memoir titled The Butterfly Mosque about life in Egypt during the Mubarak regime, which was named a Seattle Times Best Book of 2010.[9]

Her first graphic novel, Cairo, with art by M.K. Perker, was published by Vertigo in 2007,[10] and named one of the best graphic novels of 2007 by Publishers Weekly, The Edmonton Journal/CanWest News, and .[12] The paperback edition of Cairo was named one of Best Graphic Novels for High School Students in 2008 by School Library Journal, and one of 2009's Top Ten Graphic Novels for Teens by the American Library Association.[13]

Her first ongoing comic series, Air, launched by Vertigo in 2008[14][15] reunited her with Perker, and was nominated for an Eisner Award for 'Best New Series' of 2009.[16] NPR named Air one of the top comics of 2009,[17] and it also received acclaim from the , Comic Book Resources,[18] Marie Claire,[19] and Library Journal.[20] Other works for DC include fill-in issues #704 and 706 of Superman, the five-issue mini-series Vixen: Return of the Lion, starring the Justice League member Vixen with art by ,[21][22][23] and The Outsiders.

Wilson then wrote Mystic (2011), a four-issue miniseries for Marvel Comics with art by David Lopez. Although a CrossGen revival, Willow's Mystic bears little resemblance to its previous incarnation.

Her debut novel Alif the Unseen (Grove/Atlantic) won the 2013 World Fantasy Award for best novel.[24][25][26]

In 2014, Marvel debuted a new Ms. Marvel series written by Wilson. The book stars Kamala Khan, a Muslim teenager living in Jersey City, New Jersey, who takes up the mantle after the previous Ms. Marvel, Carol Danvers, took up the name Captain Marvel.

In November 2018, Wilson began writing Wonder Woman from DC Comics. The character battles Ares in an arc entitled "The Just War."[27]

Her March 2019 novel, The Bird King,[28] tells the story of Fatima, a concubine in the royal court of Granada, the last emirate of Muslim Spain, and her dearest friend Hassan, the palace mapmaker. Hassan has a secret: he can draw maps of places he's never seen and bend the shape of reality.

In 2020, she is writing The Dreaming from DC Comics, with art by Nick Robles and starting with issue #19.[29] The series is part of The Sandman Universe.

Creating Kamala Khan[]

Wilson had already had a few forays into the comic book industry, having worked on titles such as Superman and Vixen previously.[30][31] She received an email for an interview with David Gabriel, a senior vice-president at Marvel Entertainment.[1] By that point Wilson was almost finished with her second novel, but she took the time to speak with him. Shortly thereafter she was offered to co-create a new version of Ms. Marvel named Kamala Khan alongside Sana Amanat, a director and editor at Marvel Entertainment. The process of crafting Kamala was detailed, both artists wished to create a teenage Muslim American girl. Before settling on her Pakistani heritage the two debated the idea of making her a Somali American girl.[32] While creating Kamala as a character the duo expected negativity, not just from people who were anti-Muslim, but also from Muslims who believed Kamala should be portrayed in a certain way.[33] The crafting also focused on smaller details, Wilson did not believe Kamala should have worn a hijab due to a majority of teenage Muslim American girls not wearing them.[32] Despite their initial fears, Kamala was received positively. Some sources described her as easy to relate to, even likening her to a modern day Peter Parker.[34][35] Others even viewed Kamala as a symbol for equality and representation among different religions.[36]

Authenticity and realism[]

In 2017 Marvel's Vice President of Print and Sales participated in an interview with online magazine ICv2 where he suggested that, based on retailer feedback, Marvel's sales were being hurt by a lack of enthusiasm for diversity and female characters.[37] Following this, Wilson pushed back against the sentiment with her own perspective on the success and failure of "diverse" characters. She argued that the driving force behind Ms. Marvel's success was "authenticity and realism" instead of diversity; she proposed that diversity was not inherently additive to stories because it is not creating a new world but simply representative of the existing world, and that "diverse" properties that were successful were successful because of their "particularity" and "strong sense of place." Wilson cited Luke Cage, Black Panther, and Batgirl as additional examples.[38] Wilson later expanded on her vision of authenticity and realism by acknowledging the perspective that "photo-op diversity" did not actually address any institutional problems. As such, she claimed that "stories that focus on authenticity and specific experiences can be very successful because it's not about box checking. It's about reflecting — as closely as you can in pulp fiction — a real lived experience." Wilson stated that stories that can do that successfully tend to succeed with very solid fanbases, while those that don't tend to fail and as such their criticism "inevitably becomes about the diversity issue when the real cause may be diversity done poorly."[39]

Personal life[]

Wilson lives in Seattle with her husband, where they moved in 2007.[7] His name is Omar Haggag.[40] She has two daughters and a sister named Meredith.[1][41]
