[QUOTE=Redjack;4196198]Pastiche is description of a technique in art. it is not an "evaluation."
I'm not correcting you. I'm just pointing at what's been written over all these years. None of the real world nations you mentioned share any characteristics with Wakanda beyond the skin color of the natives and geography.
Some have said that Wakanda, if anything, would be the purest form of Africa and the split happened so early and they isolated - yes, isolated- themselves for so long that they developed truly independently. this is what I'm saying. Asia, the "middle east" and Europe are part of the same massive land mass yet no one would say that Israel is Korea. Or that France is in Asia. And these are cultures that DID interact with their neighbors, trading everything from genes to textiles over thousands of years.
Wakanda is Wakanda. It is not Africa.[/QUOTE]
I don’t understand why this is even a debate. It’s not that complex.

Haven't seen Afrikans and African-Americans disagree this much on Wakanda since T'Challa and Killmonger faced-off in the vibranium mounds!

Which team is blowing the horn, bringing in the Rhinos?
Do we get to draft the various team members? Who is the first pick once the consensus top 2 come off the board (T'challa then Killmonger)?
Okoye?
M'baku?
the Rhinos?
W'kabi?
Dora's?
Border Tribe?
Jabari Tribe?
Nakia?
Shuri?
Agent Ross?
White Wolf?
Who gets first pick? Is it playground rules, you get first pick or 2nd and third pick?
Who is the sleep pick? Who is sliding down the draft board? Drafting Shuri is like people a high school kid in the draft right? Hoping she develops into a superstar in 4 years?
This conflict is the most serious African/African-American battle since Prince Akeem took out Nick Fury at McDowell's back in '88.

It's also why he wasn't in Black Panther. He heard news of yet another secret African kingdom and decided to just sit this one out and wait for Spider-Man to show up in Europe.
[B]So what other cool toys do we think JA will give to Tchalla in Avengers? We already got:
Charging energy to kill space bugs, ability to survive deep underground without magic, capability to fight off a horse of bugs for several hours, anti Namor gas, Golden City Smash, and krillin solar flare. What else?[/B]

The BP mythos will remain constant regardless of how many derailment it suffers moving forward.
