Marvel says on their site, “Clan Destine is a centuries-old family of supernatural children, born from an immortal knight and Djinn, who carve history across the continents!”
In the comics, Kamala Khan is an Inhuman, much like the one fans met in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. However, the Djinn have nothing to do with that in the pages of these books. Instead of a big event like the Terrigen Mists, we have a situation where the hero’s lineage might be tied to Kree experiments at some level. A recent interview with co-creator Sana Amanat explained how this all makes sense from an MCU perspective.
“Obviously, so much of the show is an adaptation, and we thought it was important to make sure that her powers are linking to larger stories in the Marvel universe. We wanted to make sure there is a little bit more story to tell after this series,” Amanat explained. “Obviously, she goes into The Marvels. The powers do look different, which is very controversial. I know people are like, “How dare you change the powers!” I know people are upset about it, but as someone who’s probably one of the closest people to this character from the inception, and having spoken to Willow about this as well, I think Willow and I have always felt that this made sense. This was the right move because there are bigger stories to tell.”
