7-8-9 2nd are connecting covers related to Stormranger even though it’s not in the book. Plus the cameo/full in 10/11 2nds have Stormranger on the cover.
It’s a good set go to have. I was picking them up for cover recently but it’s drying up.
Yeah, I picked Mile High and Amazon clean a month or so ago to the best of my ability. Found a few at local shops, but they were never plentiful to begin with.
What’s funny is, Stormrangers actual first is what, in #5? If she’s just AI that can transform her looks into about anything… #5 is key… since the suit she takes over first appears in #5 as well if I’m not mistaken
Yep and there is a 2nd print for that.

5 if I recall correctly is a hologram showing the AI program which controls the suit. It’s on a screen.
The suit itself activated shows up in cameo end of 10, full in 11.
I believe the suit itself is Stormranger.
True but if you look at the issue again, the AI projects itself almost as if she’s in the suit Ms Marvel uses… but then injects herself into it (later on in issue #10)
So first full conscious appearance? Both the AI and the suit show up in Issue #5… smells like a first full to me… 
If we can have a cloud in the shape of some hands be called Black Winter… I’m pretty sure this appearance is much more… 
I think of it more in the Venom realm.
Ms Marvel 5 is ASM 252. First suit. Bonds to Ms Marvel.
Ms Marvel 10 is ASM 299. Suit separates from Ms Marvel for the last page panel and becomes its own separate character.
Ms Marvel 11 is ASM 300. First full.
Either way I bought all 3. All important to the character.

But there’s also the separate AI entity here at play…
This suit cannot think or work on it’s own without Ms Marvel or the AI… (or can it, I’m not fully kept up on Ms Marvel)
This works for me sort of, first time the AI controls the suit so it has a physical presence. So first full physical presence? Where’s @D-Rog at, he’s the keeper of all the different types of appearances…

It’s not a perfect analogy but that’s the best way to look at it.
Personally I don’t think anyone will care a ton about the AI program (does anyone care much about Jarvis)?
It’s about the physical representation of the character which becomes its own entity in issue 10 which is why that 10 2nd print is heating up. It goes from just being a suit in 5, to its own separate entity in 10.
As to your question about can it operate on its own, that I don’t know. I haven’t read Ms Marvel. Hopefully a reader can chime in. I looked at your spoilers for 10 to refresh my memory. It was acting on its own against Ms Marvels wishes in 10 before separating itself at the end.
There’s more then just a suit going on as it retained Ms Marvels look with full body, head, etc…

I think the AI was in control of the suit… think of her exactly like you said, Jarvis.
Do people care about Jarvis? I do… but I know what your saying, people care more about character in costume over anything else.
Yes it operates on its own after copying Kamala’s DNA I believe 
. Even with out the Empyre spinoff I still think we will see plenty of her. Can anyone else name another Kamala Khan only villain

We could have a Vice President named Kamala in 6 months watch all this Ms Marvel stuff keep chugging
I can definitely see them trying to tie the character in if Kamala Harris becomes VP.
Remember how hot that Spidey cover got with Barack Obama? I forget how many printings that went to.
People only wanted the first print of that wonder what print they want now😜
Yeah, I bought a full set of all the MMM 2nd prints from MH as well.

Don’t forget the newsstand edition that has “Sensastion Spider-Man” printed where Direct edition usually is.
I think #9 2nd print will be big too it’s her first appearance even though it’s cover only. So like Ms Marvels new outfit appearing on Captain Marvel #17 2nd print first. It’s pretty much a reverse homage to Captain Marvel #17 2nd print
I agree that if we do see Ms Marvel on D+, Stormranger would be a good candidate.
Although the cover on 9 wasn’t first. Second prints on 7/8/9/10 all came out the same day. I remember trying to get all 4, but could only get the 10 off the shelf.
And second print of 9 came out after issue 10. So 10 still is first.
Iirc CaptMar 17 2nd came out before ANMPO 1, so it was her first appearance as Ms Marvel (she’s only Kamala Khan in the book). So it’s a little different. But I get what you were going for.
Here. My attempt at spoilers for MMM5.
I like 5 1st print because it’s an homage to secret wars 8…but later printings seems to get all the attention these days.
5 clearly the first appearance of the parts that make up Stormranger…
