Introduced in G. Willow Wilson and Mirka Andolfo’s story “The Road to War” from the pages of 2016’s Ms. Marvel #12, Kareem has been tied to Kamala Khan since before the two ever met. In school, Kareem and Kamala’s mothers were close friends, so much so that Kareem even lived with Kamala’s grandmother for a time in Karachi. During the day, Kareem was a dedicated student but at night he was one of Pakistan’s greatest heroes under the guise of Red Dagger.
Kareem and Kamala first met while the latter was abroad in Karachi and stepped in to stop a group of street-level criminals. Though Kareem was quickly enamored by Ms. Marvel, he also immediately noted that she was only passing through, and took it upon himself to warn her of the dangers that came with being a superhero on foreign soil. When Kareem embarked on his own stint studying abroad, he stayed with Kamala’s family, growing close to his fellow young hero and eventually sharing his first kiss with Ms. Marvel.
