Laurel Marsden is the Ms. Marvel’s Zoe Zimmer
G. Willow Wilson and Adrian Alphona introduced Zoe Zimmer in 2014’s Ms. Marvel No. 3 as the first person Kamala Khan saves. In the comics, Zoe Zimmer is for Kamala, what Flash Thompson is for Peter Parker – sometimes a bully, sometimes a friend.
Laurel Marsden is know for the Quibi series Survive, in which she starred alongside Game of Throne’s Sophie Turner.
