As I said, to each its own, but I wholeheartedly agree with @punkarsenic. I'm not a fan of this kind of ''escapism'' argument because it's limiting. Comics can be both. They can be escapism and reflection. Comics can be anything.
I said that in another post, but one of the things I love the most about superheroes is how they tell common stories through hyper heightened symbols. Superman is escapism, but it's also the mythification of the American immigrant story. The X-Men are, as endlessly discussed, a stand-in for a number of minorities. Ms. Marvel is simply the mythification of the muslim experience in America, told through a light and fun superhero filter.
It's important to note that those ''allegories'' can never be too complete. There's a limit in which the X-Men can express the LGBTQ+ experience, but nevertheless, in broad strokes, they certainly can manage.
And while I'll be one to argue that the way Marvel has introduced their diverse cast post Secret Wars (Ms. Marvel came before and I actually think it's pretty well done and elegant) was somewhat crass and rushed, I'll also be the first one to argue that who cares as long as we get this overdue diversity after all. The means were sloppy, but the end is so necessary, so important.
Try the second story arc. If you don't like it, no shame in that, not every comic is for everyone. Plenty of options to chose for everyone and we're all the better for it.
