Hijab-Wearing Muslim Girl Illustrates Herself As Marvel Superheroes



Darkstar and Captain America



A 17-year-old girl by the name of Nora took up Tumblr’s draw yourself challenge, which involved drawing yourself as your favorite character in pop culture.



As Nora is Muslim and chooses to wear the hijab, she drew herself as various Marvel superhero, modifying their costumes to match her style—in these illustrations, she depicts the different types of hijabs that she wears, and also incorporated her preferences for long and loose clothing.



These inspiring illustrations highlight how pop culture should display more diversity.



Check out her works below.





Iron Man and The Hulk





Thor and Loki





Hawkeye and Black Widow
